Popular although acidly satirical novelist Leif Panduro's last novel (1975) turned into broad-beamed family film fare: a circuit judge is saddled with a roaming wife; a drop-out son; a nasty girl-friend with a transvestite companion; all the vengeful people on whom he has passed sentence over the years, plus a severe case of hay fever. He sees no way better out than having himself declared dead.
