In The Underpants, actor-writer Steve Martin has adapted the 1910 social comedy by German playwright Carl Sternheim and turned it into a hilarious, over-the-top farce centered on an unruly pair of knickers. Louise is a pretty, young housewife in turn-of-the-century Germany, whose frilly pantaloons accidentally fall to her ankles while watching the Kaiser's parade, it causes a scandal and sets in motion a zany chain of events. A foppish poet and a nebbish barber, both entranced by the brief glimpse of her underwear, vie to become Louise's lover. Her new-found fame terrifies her husband, thrills her neighbor and brings out her own parade of bizarre suitors.
