More Pie
Prior to the biggest "pie in your face" fight of all time from the The Great Race, an inebreated Crown Prince Friedrich Hapnick of Carpania (Jack Lemmon) was prepared for bed by his valet,
Diplomats, closest to the prince, had grown weary of his poor leadership skills and buffoon acts, certainly not worthy of royalty. Baron Rolfe von Stuppe and General Kuhster snuck into his bedroom, kidnapped him, and had the inebriated Crown Prince summarily thrown into jail, still wearing only his combinaisons.
Before long a scantily clad, young maiden (Natalie Wood) was placed into the same cell as the union suited prince. Falling back as the gaurd thrust back the cell door, locking it, she landed on the sleeping prince. Although she screamed quite loudly in protest, her guards ignored her, leaving the unfortunate young lady with an unusual cell mate!
I just noticed that Jack Lemmon's union suit has "footies". I guess it's really more of a "onesie". ----- Retro Jeff in Illinois
