Storyline : Professional daredevil and white-suited hero, The Great Leslie,
convinces turn-of-the-century auto makers that a race from New York to
Paris (westward across America, the Bering Straight and Russia) will
help to promote automobile sales. Leslie's arch-rival, the mustached and
black-attired Professor Fate vows to beat Leslie to the finish line in a
car of Fate's own invention. The Blake Edwards style of slapstick and
song originated with this movie. {full_page}
