  A car race from New York City to Paris in the early 1900s is the subject for this film. Plenty of laughs, especially the slapstick comedy provided by villainous Professor Fate (Jack Lemmon) as he tries to foil the white-clad hero, Leslie the Great (Tony Curtis). Highlight: the Academy Award-nominated song, "The Sweetheart Tree" sung by Maggie (Natalie Wood).
