A great, great movie.
And who would have thought that mean old man Mike would go on to be a star?

Cool!
What a great find.
I bet it was a whoot for these guys to get together again. I think for all it was if not their first, one of there first movies. Movie is a cult classic. Everyone one has seen it, they just may not remember the name.
I think all of the actors are successful, even today.
Think of how many time we have quoted this movie in the forum. Sometimes when my wife hears the word Refund, she goes into "Refund?....Refund?!!

"I want American food! I want French fries!"
and a bit more sadly, "Everybody cheats; I just didn't know."
I can't hear Mendelsohn's Italian Symphony without thinking of the film, and unlike the case with The Rite of Spring and Disney's dinosaurs, that's a good thing.
