I saw the ORIGINAL theatrical release of this film decades ago in a small "...artsy-phartsy" cinema in Toronto. I especially wanted to see that rumored single one clip that I had heard had Sid Caesar, Imogene Coca & Carl Reiner doing nothing than simply sitting atop 3 stools on the stage over-looking the audience in front of them...
...And they SAID nothing, they DID nothing --- NOTHING at all! Yet, in just a few short minutes of time, the entire house was just roaring with unbridled laughter...!
What absolute masters of comedy those geniuses of yore were. There is surely no one of their stature in our midst, to-day.
POST-SCRIPT: at the end of that viewing in the Toronto theater, everyone present spontaneously rose to their feet & enthusiastically APPLAUDED for a full five minutes. I have never witnessed such an outpouring of appreciation in a movie theater before, or since. Yes, it really & truly was THAT good of a movie...!
