Movie Director: Blake Edwards

Professional daredevil and white-suited hero, The Great Leslie, convinces turn-of-the-century auto makers that a race from New York to Paris (westward across America, the Bering Straight and Russia) will help to promote automobile sales. Leslie’s arch-rival, the mustached and black-attired Professor Fate vows to beat Leslie to the finish line in a car of Fate’s own invention. The Blake Edwards style of slapstick and song originated with this movie. A dedication to Laurel and Hardy appears at the beginning of the film. Edwards’ tribute to Stan and Ollie can be seen most clearly in the interaction between Professor Fate and his cohort Max, as well as in the operatic Pottsdorf pie fight.

Movie actors: Lemmon Jack (Professor Fate/Prince Hapnik), Curtis Tony (Leslie ‘The Great Leslie’ Gallant III), Wood Natalie (Maggie DuBois), Falk Peter (Maximillian ‘Max’ Meen), Wynn Keenan (Hezekiah Sturdy), O’Connell Arthur (Henry Goodbody), Vance Vivian (Hester Goodbody), Provine Dorothy (Lily Olay), Storch Larry (Texas Jack), Martin Ross (Baron Rolfe von Stuppe), Macready George (General Kuhster), Kaplan Marvin (Frisbee), Smith Hal (Mayor of Boracho), Pyle Denver (Sheriff), Bryant William (Baron’s guard),

Movie Director: Stanley Kramer

On a hilly highway in the California desert are three cars and a truck. In one car are Russell Finch, his wife Emeline, and her obnoxious mother; in another car are Melville Crump and his wife Monica; in another are two pals, Dingman “Dingy” Bell and his obese friend Benjy Benjamin; and in the truck is delivery driver Leonard “Lennie” Pike. Suddenly the four vehicles are nearly struck by a wildly fleeing car that smashes through the guardrail and plummets down the embankment. The other vehicles stop and the men rush to help the injured driver, who turns out to be a wanted felon, “Smiler” Grogan, who is fatally injured and whose dying words to his would-be rescuers are an alert that a large case with hundreds of thousands of dollars is to be found buried beneath “a big W.” A detective arrives at the scene and questions the men, who all explain that they could make no sense of what Grogan was saying. But after the detective and his partner leave, the men begin wondering if Grogan’s dying words are true, and eventually a series of wild misadventures ensues as the four parties begin searching for the mysterious “big W,” find it and the treasure - and find themselves facing potential arrest at the hands of area police captain G.C. Culpepper.
