Trivia:
Virtually the entire star stable was thrown into this movie because Paramount was trying to keep from going bankrupt and thought that such a star-laden movie could save the studio from failing. It didn't work since most of the stars couldn't be recognized because of their costumes. Instead, two Mae West movies, She Done Him Wrong (1933) and I'm No Angel (1933) saved the studio from bankruptcy instead. moreSoundtrack:

I remember seeing this film of TV as a child of the 60s, and recently--after much searching and some $$--found a copy of it on ebay. The quality of the VHS tape is good, but the print from which it was struck is poor and not anywhere near broadcast quality.
Still, it's fun to see this strange film again after all these years. My only disappointment is seeing a number of Paramount's contract players (and stars) in what must have been very uncomfortable make-up and costumes. Surely a star like Cary Grant didn't really suffer the indignity of that Mock Turtle costume? Why not an extra in the costume and Grant doing a voice-over? Ah, well, is it any wonder the Screen Actors Guild was organized only a year or two later?
On the other hand, wouldn't it be fun to remake this script with modern puppetry and CGI effects--with big-name stars providing the voices and motion control movements for animators?
