Laughs (#40); Stars - Spencer Tracy (#9), Buster Keaton (#21)
When bank robber Jimmy Durante crashes his car, his dying words to the onlookers reveal where he has hidden his loot. This sets off a mad dash to find the money.
The all-star comic cast includes not only Durante, Tracy, and Keaton, but Ethel Merman, Mickey Rooney, Milton Berle, Sid Caesar, Jonathan Winters, Buddy Hackett, Phil Silvers, Jim Backus, Don Knotts, Norman Fell, Jerry Lewis, the Three Stooges, Carl Reiner, and William Demerest (who I'm finding in a lot of these old movies).
It's wildly funny, and I loved it. I think this just might be my rainy Sunday afternoon movie.
