Saw this movie back in '67. Would love to have a copy on VHS. Phil Silvers was a great devil. This was as close to the original as you can imagine. Lee Remick was a great Lola. They should bring this back to TV and allow today's generation to see them at their best. Joe Garragiola had a cameo in this. He introduces the movie and remarks how the Yankees fans weren't being heard of lately. Back in '67 the Yankees were a struggling ball club and weren't the power house that they are today.
