Beverly Hills Chihooahooa

Dog movie Berverly Hills Chihuahua, sadly not directed by Lassie Hallstrom. Its clumsy spelling on Witterpedia is an attempt to capture the Wittertainment retitling, based on the way that Radio 1's Peter Powell once pronounced the small canine breed when asked to read a dedication to a man's wife, children and pet chihuahua. (Another famed instance being when Simon Bates once mispronounced Simon le Bon's band as "Durran Durran.") Like Burn After Reading and Sorority Row, the essence of the gag is regrettably almost impossible to capture written down.

Mark Kermode had to admit that the scene where all the chihuahuas gathered together and plotted a Marxist revolution made him laugh. A lot.
