COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Danny Kaye is an amazing comedian submitted by ejmarcash on August 16, 2012, 7:15pm My husband introduced me to this movie a few years ago and I enjoyed it immensely. Danny Kaye is a wonderful comedian, singer, and actor. Funny tongue twisters make me wonder how long it took him to master his lines.

Two Thumbs Up submitted by Avliss on July 1, 2016, 2:11pm A friend introduced me to this a couple months ago, and I'm so glad she did. The convoluted plots and the twisty word play (kudos to Danny Kaye for getting through those lines!) had me in stitches throughout the film.
