I watched "Rentadick", as I assume most people might, solely because I learned that John Cleese and Graham Chapman co-wrote the script; however, in my version at least, they are both uncredited, so they either took their names off out of embarrassment, or their initial work was completely discarded. In either case, the final script is godawful. The direction is so clumsy that it is impossible to know who is in any given scene or what they are trying to do; in its own way, this film is as hard to understand as any of Tarkovsky's work. The cast is a who-is-not-who of British film comedy; the only face (among other parts....) I recognized was Julie Ege. They say few people have actually seen "Rentadick" and lived to tell the tale. Don't risk it. 0 out of 4 stars.
