I first saw Kevin Kline in Silverado, which was a great Western movie, with Kevin Costner as well.

I later saw the movie, "A Fish Called Wanda" and really enjoyed the comedy.

Kevin Kline has made a large number of comedies over the years. I hope that he does a new comedy soon. We all enjoy having a good laugh now and again.
