After the Fox (1966) is one of those great movies that starts with a cartoon...for the kiddies, and stars Peter Sellers, for the ladies...er something like that. It was a good movie. It could have been shorter, but maybe that's just cause we were tired.
"The Fox" is an Italian thief (that reminds me that I made some super-good pasta last night...Spaghetti Vodka. yum.). He devised an elaborate scheme to smuggle the gold of Cairo into Italy by pretending that he's making a movie about it. So, of course there were all the wacky jokes about how people who make movies are so wacky...which is one of my pet peeves. "Hey guys, I got a great idea. Let's make a movie about making a movie! Just look at all the wacky stuff that goes on around here!"
