The Great Race

I am convinced that my favorite Blake Edwards film, and one of my favorite comedies is The Great Race. Three hours worth of enjoyment and it goes by so quickly. Jack Lemmon has never been in a funnier film, especially playing two opposing personalities as Professor Fate and Prince Hapnik. When I was a ten year old kid, I loved this film. Later, when it appeared on television, I recorded the audio with my reel-to-reel tape recorder. I would then shut my eyes and relive the movie in my mind's cinema. I am now pleased to relive the timeless magic with my own kids.
