Interesting how a good comedy film filled with funny humor with a sort of madcap tone to it suddenly and unexpectedly turns depressingly serious and reflective at this moment without any warning at all. Grossburger's character is a violent and unpredictable pschyopath who you'd better not turn your back on; but he suddenly demonstrates that he is both a heartfelt and lonely man who is obviously home-sick. I'm sure a lot of men cry at night behind bars because jail is all they have in life.
His actual voice wasn't used for the song, "Down in the Valley", in the film. Due to the SAG-AFTRA strike in 1980, he wasn't able to record the song himself, so they used the pre-recorded track to which he had sung the song during the filming in the final print of the movie
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. I'm Hungarian, but this song is performed by Grossberger something wonderful. I think this is a favorite of mine forever. ;) Yeaah <3 <3 <3 <3 :) 20/B

I thought it was Gene Wilder dubbing grossbergers lip-syncing. But I read that the guy who played Grossberger was ACTUALLY singing!
