So Albert and his girlfriend (Janet Leigh) organize a nationwide contest in which one lucky girl wins a farewell kiss from Conrad on the Ed Sullivan Show. Kim McAfee (Ann-Margret) turns outto be the lucky teenager and Conrad's whole entourage moves into her quiet, Midwestern home much tothe chagrin of her ever irritable father (Paul Lynde) and her jealous boyfriend (Bobby Rydell). Theresult is chaos and a series of hilarious romantic complications.
Marx Bros i sirkus
I denne slapstick-komedien kommer brødrene Marx til unnsetning da en muskelmann, en dverg og en forførende akrobat planlegger å stjele sirkusets billettpenger. Da Jeff Wilson (Kenny Baker) står i fare for å miste sirkuset sitt til den uærlige kreditoren Carter (James Burke), verver den trofaste altmuligmannen Antonio (Chico Marx) den lurvete advokaten J. Cheever Loophole (Groucho Marx). Til tross for trioens anstrengelser, og med hjelp av Punchy (Harpo Marx), blir ting bare verre da billettkontoret ranes av Goliat (Nat Pendleton), professor Atom (Jerry Marenghi) og akrobaten Peerless Pauline (Eve Arden). Med alt på spill sjarmerer Loophole Jeffs rike tante, Mrs. Dukesbury (Margaret Dumont) for å skaffe pengene som trengs. På en eller annen måte går alt bra i denne sprø historien - selv om Mrs. Dukesbury skytes ut av en kanon under en soaré.
Bye Bye Birdie
When the draft selects rock star Conrad Birdie, his fans are devastated, but none more than struggling songwriter Albert Peterson, whose song Birdie was just about to record.
