The best one - -

Rating: 10/10 (9 October 2002)

Most people have seen Mel Brooks remake of this movie, so it is like watching Jack Benny doing Mel Brooks. It was clearly the best movie or performance Jack ever gave - all of his radio, television and movie works combined - HE IS GREAT! Of the two movies, Jack beats Mel hands down, but had it not been for the remake most people would never have know about this one. The death of Lombarde right after this movie caused it to almost become totally lost - a shame as she is great here as well. This is a must see for many reasons - Jack, Carol, the laughs and the tears.
