‘Honeymoon in Vegas’

This 1992 release proves one more time that when it comes to modern screen comedy, writer-director Andrew Bergman is nothing less than the emperor of the absurd. Nicolas Cage (right) stars as a private eye who elopes to Las Vegas with second-grade teacher Sarah Jessica Parker, who unfortunately is the very image of the beloved dead wife of James Caan, a big-time gambler who will do anything to get her to marry him. What’s more, Vegas seems to be hosting the largest gathering ever of Elvis impersonators (Showtime Wednesday at 1:15 and 9:45 p.m.; Saturday at 8:45 a.m. and next Sunday at 1:55 a.m.).
