That looks like an awful mess.
It was, Gerard. I'd put it in the running for Ten Worst Movies of All Time. It was a really, really embarrassing mess. Frankie Avalon, Cesar Romero, Carol Channing, and Groucho in his last movie as "God"?Jeff
A sad, sad end to the great Groucho's career. This movie isn't even funny in a " so bad it's good" way. It's just an utter mess.
Otto Preminnger was apparently so nasty to Marx that Jackie Gleason turned on the director, and backed him down.Chuck Esola's review:http://cinematicobsessive.blogspot.com/2011/02/tuesdays-overlooked-films-skidoo.html
Luna, when she's onscreen, is pleasant to contemplate.
