Saturday Cinema: Hollywood or Bust

on BBC Two England

Starring Dean Martin, Jerry Lewis
with Anita Ekberg

Steve Wiley and Malcolm Smith each win half of the same car in a cinema sweepstake. Steve wants to sell the car to pay off his gambling debts but Malcolm, an ardent film fan, wants to drive to Hollywood to meet Anita Ekberg. Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis were the most popular team in pictures when they made this, one of their craziest comedies.
