Silly British movie
sandlot313 July 2011
49 minutes of comedy, singing and dancing starring The Nitwits (Sid Millward, Wally Stewart, Cyril Lagey, Arthur Calkin, Dennis Croker) and singer-comedian Max Bygraves. The Nitwits were kind of the English version of Spike Jones. They were featured twice in the film Juke Box Rhythm (1959) as their only other film appearance. Other "NitWits" were Charlie Rossi, Tony Traverci, Harry Coles, Ronnie Genarda and Tommy Fielding. They sold out Las Vegas clubs in the 1960s. Rex Ramer's claim to fame was imitating various instruments with his voice. He also appeared on American TV (The Ed Sullivan Show, The Colgate Comedy Hour, Cavalcade of Stars).This was the only movie appearance for most of the other performers.
