It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World

1963

Stanley Kramer
Director

A group of eight people travelling in four separate vehicles witness the apparent suicide of a lunatic driver one morning up in the mountains. When they attempt to find out if the driver (Durante) is ok, he uses his dying words to inform them of a large amount of money which is buried in a park in California under "a big W". The group initially discuss in a half-reasonable manner on how to retrieve the loot and share it amongst themselves....but this plan is short-lived when it becomes apparant that it has become a every man for himself scenario and the race is on to get there first. What they don't realise is that the police are hot on their trail.

Classic comedy with a surprisingly big-star cast which is both long and enjoyable.

The DVD prints are cut by 50+ minutes, which accounts for some of the cast listed below being missing.
