Crazy People

Crazy People is a 1990 movie starring Dudley Moore as an advertising executive. He is committed to a psychiatric hospital for making truthful advertisements, such as in an ad for Volvo, which proclaims "Volvo. Boxy, but good." In the sanitarium he falls in love with Kathy (Daryl Hannah), a fellow patient, and transforms the place into a branch of the advertising industry, where other mental patients come up with wild, often funny advertising slogans, like "Forget Paris. Come to Greece. We're nicer," for a Greek travel agency. The movie closes with George (David Paymer), a patient who speaks only in variations of "Hello" (e.g., "Hello, how the hell are you?"), singing the "Hello" parts of "Hello, Hello, Hello! What a wonderful word, Hello."
