I found it: A printout of Roger Ebert's reaction to

: FWWM. May 1992. Been in my files 31 years (note rusted staple). This came from Ebert's CompuServe column. There's no bibliographic source; you'll have to take my word for it. (Blue highlights also 31 yrs old.)

Perfect economy of storytelling: In 60 seconds you know exactly who Jim Rockford is--his job, his work, his home life, what he values. He's inviting you into his world, and you want to go.

True story: We were studying the Arthurian legend in high school, and my English teacher started showing us Monty Python and the Holy Grail--not knowing *at all* that it was a comedy. About halfway through, he turned it off. (I'm amazed we got that far.)
