Movie Info
When eccentric English teacher Andrew Larabee (Danny Kaye) needs a raise in order for his fiancée to marry him, his interest in archaeology leads him to an ancient statue's burial site. But when he finds a traveling circus directly above the statue's location, he accidentally becomes part of the act. With a newfound passion for performance and an attraction to the beautiful acrobat Selena (Pier Angeli), Andrew must decide what is truly important to him.

This Danny Kaye musical has our zany comic as an unorthodox English professor (with an on again, off again posh accent) pressured by his authoritarian papa (Noel Purcell) to be more like papa wants him to be. And he's gonna do it too, until a day trip to a nearby circus (home to cloying Anna Marie Pierangeli) changes everything. Predictable? You bet. First time director Mike Kidd keeps things moving overall though, but really comes into his own with the musical numbers, particularly the showpiece "Salut!", which is the main reason to see this, notwithstanding the comedy bits meant to showcase the only-a-moment-from-being-frantic Kaye.
