Nobody's Perfekt [sic] is a 1981 comedy film, adapted from Tony Kenrick's novel Two for the Price of One; Kenrick wrote the screenplay for this film.[1]
Plot
[edit]Three therapy patients — Dibley (Gabe Kaplan), whose memory often fails him; Swaboda (Alex Karras), who believes that his late mother is still alive and living with him; and Walter (Robert Klein), who has three personalities — want the city to buy them a new car after theirs is totaled by a pothole.
