It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World

In the Summer of 1964 Dad and Mom piled us 6 kids into the back of our 1955 Chevy and saw this movie at the drive-in theater. It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World releases in late 1963 and of course we saw later when it got to the drive-ins. I also saw it at a Saturday afternoon matinee at our local neighborhood theater. I was old enough to appreciate all the familiar stars that were scattered throughout the film and I could also follow the somewhat convoluted plot. All the fast moving slapstick comedy and wisecracks kept the whole family glued to the screen... and the popcorn.

It turned out to be one of our favorite all time movies. My kids loved it too.

It was a perfect drive-in movie for kids. We saw lots of movies at the drive-in with our parents. It was a regular family entertainment treat.
