Pennies From Heaven

For ever-scuffling Depression-era sheet music salesman Arthur Parker (Steve Martin), the sole relief from his listless routine came from his fantasy escapes into dazzling dance numbers, but they won't help him when cruel reality intervenes. Herbert Ross' stylish and remarkable adaptation of the British TV series, as scripted by creator Dennis Potter, co-stars Bernadette Peters, Jessica Harper, and Christopher Walken. 107 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
