What About Dick? is a 2012 comedy film released on November 13, 2012, in the United States. The production has been described using various comparisons, including being likened to the works of Oscar Wilde, E.M. Forster, and the television series Downton Abbey. The narrative begins in 1898 in Shagistan with the invention of a sex toy by Deepak Rushdie Obi Ben Kingsley. The story follows the decline of the British Empire as observed and narrated by a piano. This piano recounts the tale of Dick and his three relatives who reside together in a large Edwardian house. These characters include Emma, an emotionally stunted English girl, her kleptomaniac sister Helena, and their dipsomaniac Aunt Maggie. The plot is set in motion when the Reverend Whoopsie discovers a piano on a beach. This discovery leads to a mystery that can only be resolved by a private investigator, an incomprehensible Scottish sleuth named Ins. The film has a runtime of one hour and twenty minutes and is classified as a video release.
