Courtney Ellis I always thought that this was the best movie ever made. It has everything. Comedy, drama, romance, slapstick, great cast, great writing, amazing music and the biggest pie fight ever put to film. It is a masterpiece directed by a genius. They could never make a movie like this today. There is too many egos in Hollywood so you would never get a cast like this ever again. Plus there are very little original ideas coming out of Hollywood, and those are weak at best. The Great Race is hands down a fantastic movie for the entire family.

This scene is a good example of signifying the contrasts between character. Tony Curtis plays a challenger who stands by his terms even if certain others don't see them the same way, while Jack Lemmon sells the schemer who goes to as much as entrepreneurial lengths for a less respectful outcome, which to him is more important than his legit achievements. Neither side see each other as more than contenders in the same cause. Then you see the lackey that Peter Falk cements, who is totally aware of his stance under Professor Fate but of nothing else. Regards, Samuel Farris.

I got my own copy for 2 ( was it $3.00?) - a plastic car model of the THOMAS FLYER, the American car in the REAL New York to Paris of 1908,this Webber car doesn't quite look like it, no, it didn't. have a hood, yes, the tires were white, but the rear tires had bicycle chains on them. This movie is very much a comedy farce, it doesn't tell about the hardships the cars REALLY went through. Besides the American and the German cars, the Italian car also reached Paris (about 2 months later).
