Films with large and eccentric casts

[bluegopher]

I usually like these type of films that have large casts and usually involve a crime.

Some I know of are Big Trouble, Gosford Park, Mulholland Dr., Snatch, and Oceans 11. What films am I missing?

Here's a golden oldie but one of my favorites. People who like Clue must have seen a murder/mystery/comedy called "Murder by Death"?

Peter Sellers, Alec Guiness, Peter Falk, James Cromwell, Truman Capote, Eilleen Brennan, David Niven & Maggie Smith. (Just to name a few, beleieve me this film is packed with people and is funny as all hell)

How about Kind Hearts and Coronets. You get Alec Guiness, Alec Guiness, Alec Guiness, Alec Guiness, Alec Guiness, Alec Guiness and Alec Guiness.

Big cast: Traffic. 110 or so speaking parts.

Any Altman flick will have an ensemble cast.

Really big, really eccentric cast, although oldish movie: It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.
