Loosely based…on the 1908 race from New York to Paris, billed as the "Greatest Auto Race" of its time. An homage to slapstick farces and silent film comedies, following two competing daredevils at the turn of the 20th century: handsome, courteous hero The Great Leslie (Tony Curtis) and his nemesis, the dastardly Professor Fate (Lemmon). Set and shot on location in Austria, Paris, and Kentucky, Oregon, and California in the United States. 10 x 8 inches. Near Fine.
