I just heard that Mike Nichols, the great film director, has died. While perhaps best known for his masterpiece The Graduate, we should not forget his other masterpiece:
Yes, Day of the Dolphin, the movie where George C. Scott teaches dolphins to speak English in squeaky dolphin voices, before one of them is unwittingly forced into an evil plot to kill the President of the United States.
While easy to make fun of, I did have a great time watching this movie back in 2010. Here’s wishing Nichols all the best at the big Singleman party in the sky…
