Gigot (1962)
One of the worst movies I've ever watched

I could not tear myself away from this movie once it started. It featured an incredibly maudlin storyline, some of the worst overall acting I've ever seen, and some of the cheesiest sets ever.
Jackie Gleason was great in The Hustler. He should have left well enough alone. This movie was obviously intended to showcase much of the tired, overwrought and stereotypical "sad clown" acting skills he used as a fallback way too often. Unfortunate, as he could be much, much better than this movie allows.
It is as deep as a dime and worth as much.
However, if one of your goals is to add to your "worst ever" list, by all means watch it. You will not be disappointed.
