13. What a memory!

Mom, dad, a car full of kids, all kinds of snacks brought from home, the scratchy sound from the speaker, blankets to cover up with when we started getting sleepy......*sigh*

3. It was on here last night

My favorite part is when sid ceaser and wife (can't remember her name) he's been beating on the door and comes huffing and puffing to sit by her and she asks him, can't you do it melville?.

4. "I'm comin to get you, mama"

Dick Shawn was hilarious as Ethel Merman's beachbum son. Jonathan Winters was great, too. The scene where he destroys a gas station going after Phil Silvers is classic.

Just about every comedian of the time was in that movie - in a lead role or a cameo - everybody from Jack Benny to the 3 stooges. Definitely worth watching.

5. The guys who owned the gas station were a hoot, too.

A couple of guys known for cartoon voices, IIRC.

7. My Dad took the whole family down to Michigan Palace

when that movie came out. Thats the night I fell in love with Spencer Tracy. The greatest american actor that ever lived, bar none.

8. Sylvester! Sylvester!

Hysterical movie. My favorite scene is Jonathan Winters and the gas station but every time I find something new to howl at.

I'll enjoy the movie more when the little W jackass is out of office.

14. 'And this infantile preoccupation with bosoms!

"In all time in this Godforsaken country, the one thing that has appalled me most of all this this prepostrous preoccupation with bosoms! Don't you realize they have become the dominant theme in American culture: in literature, advertising and all fields of entertainment and everything! I'll wager you anything you like that if American women stopped wearing brassieres, your whole national economy would collapse overnight!"
