One of the best ever films in the history of cinema.

The bit where Count Basie is playing in the desert!

Wonder what Hedy (that's Hedley!!!!) Lamarr made of it?

Surely this film is no longer politically correct????

When the redneck says to the black guy "sing one of those nigger songs". (or something like that).

Fucking hilarious when he starts with the "I get no kicks from Champagne" song.

Fucking brilliant film which, yet again, portrays a black person as the "more clued up" guy. And makes a mockery of racial prejudice.

But in todays oversensitive climate you could call for the film to be banned. For racial abuse, or something. :roll:
