John Landis 's comedy starring Eddie Murphy
Prince Akeem of Zamunda has a problem. He's enormously rich, incredibly powerful and his dad's arranged his marriage. So Akeem travels to New York in search of a woman who will love him for what he is, not his massive fortune. But in real life it's not that easy. Don Ameche and Ralph Bellamy re-enact their roles from an earlier Murphy/ Landis film, Trading Places.
● STEREO; TELETEXT SUBTITLES: p 888 ● FILMS: pages 49-56
