‘Greedy’
- Share via
Kirk Douglas (left) is so much fun in the 1994 “Greedy” that you’re tempted to forgive this wildly uneven 1994 satire. Douglas is cast as an aged but vigorous self-made scrap-metal tycoon whose declining health neither prevents him from going to work nor taking tremendous relish in watching his nephews and nieces currying favor in hopes of inheriting his fortune. Douglas’ sheer presence holds the film together when all else flounders. Michael J. Fox (right) is Douglas’ long-lost grand nephew (NBC Sunday at 9 p.m.).
