Awesome. Something dif. Can’t wait to see you guys do some M night Shyamalan movies!! Signs, Split, The 6th Sense, Glass, Lady in the Water. And The Village! He just came out with Knock at the Cabin which is so good too. ALL are 5 star movies. Nobody writes and has twists like him.

THE GREAT RACE movie was made in 1965. The story takes place in 1908 when cars and planes were still new. Women didn't get the right to vote until 1920 (in the USA). Men's and women's fashions changed a lot between 1908 and 1965.

Shoshana was right, the newspaper publisher's wife was played by Vivian Vance who was Ethyl in the TV series I Love Lucy (1951-1957).

The IMDB trivia section on this movie is a fun read with facts like Natalie Wood (Maggie) is of Russian descent and spoke Russian fluently, the pie fight is the longest in movie history, there was an actual 1908 New York to Paris race, and the film inspired a Saturday morning cartoon show "Wacky Races"(1968).

The director of THE GREAT RACE, Blake Edwards also directed other great comedies including: VICTOR/VICTORIA(1982), SWITCH(1991), and the best of the Pink Panther series: A SHOT IN THE DARK(1964), THE RETURN OF THE PINK PANTHER(1975), THE REVENGE OF THE PINK PANTHER(1976).

Natalie Wood started as a child actress. One of her best known films is the Christmas classic MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET (1947) made when she was 8 years old. Other notable movies she starred in: REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE (1955) with James Dean and the musical WEST SIDE STORY (1961). Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon were popular actors and starred together in a previous comedy movie which is considered one of the greatest movies of all time, SOME LIKE IT HOT (1959) with Marilyn Monroe. Peter Falk (Max) became well known as the detective Colombo on the long running TV show "Colombo".

Vince mentioned The Three Stooges. They were a comedy trio who made 190 short comedy films (15-20 minutes) from 1934 to 1959 which were popular TV programming in the 1960s. They made several full length movies also but the shorts are more known. Some other film comedy acts of the 30s-50s: The Marx Brothers, Laurel and Hardy, Abbott and Costello, Bob Hope and Bing Crosby, Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin. And there were 220 shorts (the first 88 were silent films) with the many child actors of Our Gang (AKA The Little Rascals) from 1922-1944.

THE GREAT RACE was dedicated to the slapstick comedy team of Laurel and Hardy. Their silent short film, "Battle of the Century" (1927) 27 minutes, had one of the greatest pie fights on film. It can be found on YouTube for free.
