Pepe 1960  N/R, 157 min.
Genre: Musical
Director: George Sidney
Cast: Cantinflas, Dan Dailey, Shirley Jones, Carlos Montalban, Jack Lemmon, Bing Crosby, Debbie Reynolds, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Janet Leigh
In this over-long film, Cantinflas is a hobo who comes to the aid of a has-been Hollywood director. This movie is really just a vehicle to showcase Hollywood stars in cameo performances. Originally it was even longer-by about 40 minutes! 1 User Review
