Directors Dan Klores & Fisher Stevens present a real head-scratcher, a documentary focusing on what is likely the most curious love affair since Edward VIII & Wallace Simpson. In the late 1950s, nebbish ambulance chasing lawyer/film producer(!) Burt Pugach spots Linda Riss on a NYC street corner and becomes immediately obsessed with her. What transpires over the next fifteen years is mind boggling. What goes on after that time is surrealistic. To say anything more would spoil an unbelievable viewing experience. Suffice to say, if the film were fiction, it would most appropriately be directed by either David Lynch or even the great Federico Fellini. CRAZY LOVE is grotesque, cringe-inducing, funny, horrifying, and more...a real emotional roller-coaster. There are appearances by Jimmy Breslin, William Kuntsler, Mike Douglas, Joe Franklin, several friends of both Pugach and Riss as well as Pugach's first wife Francine.
