I'm told there are still a few tickets left (but only a few) for the screening of a brand-new 35mm print of It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World on Wednesday, December 4 at the American Cinematheque in Hollywood. Even better is that the film will be followed by a panel discussion featuring many of the movie's surviving stars including — schedules permitting — Sid Caesar, Edie Adams, Jonathan Winters, Mickey Rooney, Marvin Kaplan and Stan Freberg. If you can't make it, check out this page early the following morn for a full report. Info on the event is available over at this site, and I'd like to thank Daniel Frank, who alerted me to the event. Daniel has a fine, funny weblog at this address, and it's always worth a visit — after, of course, you visit here.
