 Starts with the dedication "For Mr. Laurel and Mr. Hardy". Opening credits  are in the form of a turn of the century slide show, begining with "Ladies  kindly remove your hats". The WB logo is drawn on the hood of a car. When  the main characters are introduced, Jack Lemmon is jeered,  Tony Curtis (I) (qv) cheered and Natalie Wood (I) (qv) gets dog wistles.  There are various hickups along the way: a fly is shoed off by a stick, the  lights go out and a (real) hand with a match comes on. Other slides have to  be adjusted by hand. When one of them starts to burn, "One moment please"  is interjected. The producerss credit is upside down. The last slide turns  into the opening shot of the movie.
