Broomfield’s behind-the-scenes document of the making of a musical becomes a ceremonious unmaking-of as egos, budgets and general calamity conspire to ruin the best efforts of all involved in the New York rehearsals for an extravagant, glitzy production.

Let's Make Love -- An international tycoon falls in love with a Broadway star but refrains from telling her who he is because he is the satirical subject of her show.

A team of experts are recruited to ensure the success of a heist (of forts) in the zany comedy Who's Minding the Mint. A clerk who works in the mint in Washington, D.C. accidentally destroys $50,000 in cash, and attempts to sneak into the building in the middle of the night and run off enough cash on the presses to cover his mistake.

Both uproariously funny and unerringly cautionary, Broomfield's behind-the-scenes document of the making of a musical becomes a ceremonious unmaking-of as egos, budgets and general calamity conspire to ruin the best efforts of all involved in the New York rehearsals for an extravagant, glitzy production. As Broomfield recounts it,"(This was) the first film I ever appeared in. I was so desperate in this out-of-control situation that it was the only way I could think of telling the story."

It's a mad, mad, mad mad farcical return to the days of the Keystone Cop comedies, on an Ultra Panavision scale, in this star-studded extravaganza. A multitude of people have been given a clue by a dying man (Jimmy Durante) as to the location of $350,000 in stolen bank money that he has buried. They cannot come to an agreement to seek out the loot as a cooperative unit, so they set out separately in a mad race to get to it first. They do not know that the state police are on to them and are simply allowing the loot-seekers to lead them to the stolen bucks. The loot-chasers are ruthless, devious, crackpot and very often dimwitted in their frantic, hilarious race. Stanley Kramer took an intermission from socially conscious subjects to direct this riotous comedy. Photography by Ernest Laszlo.

Fortunately, Billy Dee Williams, Milton Berle and other celebrities help out along the way in this sequel to Go, Trabi, Go.

Both uproaringly funny and unerringly cautionary, Broomfield's behind-the-scenes document of the making of a musical becomes a ceremonious unmaking-of as egos, budgets and general calamity conspire to ruin the best efforts of all involved in the New York rehearsals for an extravangant, glitzy production.
