The
Battle of Love's Return is one of Lloyd Kaufman's (President of Troma and creator
of The Toxic Avenger) early directorial efforts.
In the tradition of Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd, and Charlie
Chaplin, The Battle of Love's Return is the
witty, whimsical story of one little man's struggle for
happiness in the crazy, modern world. Abercrombie (played
by Kaufman) is the classic Everyman, a struggling hero who
can't get ahead. Dim-witted and accident prone, Abercrombie
bounces from one absurd job to another, and finally to the
battlefield. Only one person sppears to bring him happiness,
the "Dreamgirl" who seems to be always just out
of reach.
The
Battle of Love's Return is an unforgettable, sublime
comedy from the cutting edge minds that went on to give
us classics like The Toxic Avenger, Sgt. Kabukiman
N.Y.P.D. and Tromeo & Juliet. Also features
Stanley Kaufman and cameos by Oliver Stone, Richard Lewin
and Robert Edelstein.
