I have always considered Stanley Kramer's IT'S A MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD one of my personal favorite films. I loved it when I was a kid, and I love it today!

That film is as old as I am (oops... did I type that out loud just now?)

By the way... the songs Dick Shawn dances to in the film are THIRTY-ONE FLAVORS and YOU SATISFY MY SOUL, both sung by The Shirelles.

I was fortunate to have attended the 25TH anniversary re-premiere at the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood, CA (also where the film originally premiered in 1963).

I have to admit the Sylvester Marcus (Dick Shawn) character has always been my favorite in the film. And to quote his character for all you tiki gods and goddesses who aren't as thrilled about this film as I am: "Out, baby. Out, baby. Out!"

tee-hee;-)

THE GHASTLY LOVE OF JOHNNY X is now in production!
