Stanley Kramer’s ‘It’s a mad mad mad mad world’ is a wild comedy caper. It has ludicrous situations and far-fetched comic stunts. But what’s really amazing about the film are the subtle themes that are showcased. Here are a few examples.
- An honest cop who decides to stray after all.
- A woman in a unhappy marriage suddenly ‘dreams’ a way out.
- Greed of common men when put in uncommon situations
Touted as a classic, the movie has inspired many other movies in whole and in parts.
