I had the pleasure of watching this movie one Saturday night at the local Drive-In Theater. (Remember Drive-Ins)? What in the whole world could be better, warm summer night, drive in, showing a wonderful movie? This is not Citizen Kane or Mr. Smith Goes To Washington, it is a fun, fun, movie. How many movies that you saw 45 years ago can you still quote dialogue from? There is a scene in the movie where Terry Thomas tries to impersonate a wealthy man in order to get to Pauline. While sitting, and talking, he states "I am the third richest man in the world". He then proceeds to cross his legs, and clearly visible to the man he is talking to is a hole in the bottom of his shoe. For the last 45 years, every time I, and my friends, see a shoe with a hole in the bottom, we always quip "Must belong to the 3rd richest man in the world". If you love your children, try your best to sit down with them and watch this movie. You will not be disappointed, but your children will have a memory for life.
