    Funniest movie I have ever seen!!!

    I saw this movie 3 times as a kid, back in the sixties. I laughed so hard I couldn't see the TV! It is, without a doubt, the funniest movie I have ever seen! I have been searching the Internet for years trying to find it on video or now, DVD. I would pay $100.00 for this movie in a heartbeat. It's that good!
