Stanley Kramer’s IT’S A Excited, Furious, Indignant, Aroused WORLD (1963, UA) is my current comedy of the sound era and the most fondly remembered movie of my 1960′s childhood in the San Francisco Bay Set. It has a sunny and airy mood, the comedy cast of a lifetime, inviting and hilarious dialogue, an irrestible greed dwelling, a melodic music gather by Ernest Gold, and enraged pacing for almost, or unbiased over, three hours (depending on what version you are watching) . The more I look it on DVD at 161 minutes or at 182 minutes on Turner Classic Movies, the more I savor it and want to peep the long-lost 192 exiguous Cinerama world premiere version.

MAD WORLD does something true that every other movie of its type gets wrong–it starts a travel area in reel one, then develops character outward as we go along. It does not expend 45 minutes setting up the legend, as similar movies do. In the opening scene, a dying millionaire (Jimmy Durante) tells a group of people in the Southern California desert that a grand sum of money is buried “under a gigantic W” in a park south of San Diego. Mickey Rooney and Buddy Hackett are gag writers headed for Las Vegas. Milton Berle is headed for a vacation with wife Dorothy Provine and Ethel Herman as the mother-in-law to beat all mothers-in-law. Sid Caesar and Edie Adams are a dentist and his wife. And Jonathan Winters is driving a van of furniture. Monitoring all of them, as they rush after the money, is Spencer Tracy as the coastal city (a compilation of Long Beach and Santa Monica) police captain with a wall way.
So we have a slapstick scramble movie to demolish all slapstick sail movies. (WARNING: Space SPOILERS AHEAD!!) Heading a golden age of television cast are Caesar and Adams, who gather to skim in a makeshift plane, then salvage locked in a hardware store basement. In a career performance, Winters hilariously gets to completely atomize a desert gas area. Berle has a running battle with the mother-in-law from Hell, Merman, who in turn has been given some gloriously acidic dialogue by generous sreenwriters William and Tania Rose. The Roses have never been given enough credit here. All of the sublime dialogue is on the printed page. Along the diagram, Winters meets up with Phil Silvers, who in turn mixes up with miner Mike Mazurki. Silvers is staggeringly silly with a car at the bottom of a canyon, then later drowning in a river. Rooney and Hackett are in another plane that flies through a Coke billboard after pilot Jim Backus knocks himself unconscious. There is also Dick Shawn as Merman’s lifeguard son at Silver Strand Beach. And a phone running battle in his inner police office with Tracy and his wife and daughter that escalates over a simple vacation. And this is only portion one, before the film’s intermission! Piece two has some of the funniest dialogue and greatest car chases in all of movie history for me. And the huge climax has never been topped for me–not even by still era clowns.

MAD WORLD got mixed reviews when it opened city by city in gradual 1963, true before President Kennedy’s tragic death in Dallas. The determined ones praised a improbable cast and hilarious scramble station. The negative reviews said it was too long and repetitious at 193 minutes. So producer/director Kramer and his editors carefully slit the Cinerama world premiere version, two months into its urge, to 162 minutes. It played in 70mm Cinerama engaggements at 162 minutes until 35mm engagements in Spring 1965. It was further lop then to 154 minutes with roadshow music and intermission removed. All 35mm prints today–and since 1965–run 154 minutes. The DVD, which may or may not serene be for sale, restores roadshow music and runs 161 minutes. At an aspect ratio of 2.55, it also blessedly comes cessation to restoring the ultra-wide widescreen images of the fresh film. Maddeningly, though, this 161 puny DVD print is curiously missing the Oscar-nominated title song overture.
But there is also a 182 tiny print of Excited WORLD (!), restored by my dear filmmaker friend Paul Scrabo, MGM executives, and a dying Kramer in 1991. That is the version that hit VHS and laserdisc in 1991 with a stunning hour-long documentary that I wish could be seen nowadays. It briefly surfaced on one DVD edition, then removed from another that has no bonus material. (So we have two different 161 miniature DVD prints that may both be on moratorium! One with a lot of bonuses and one with none. It’s a excited, excited, wrathful, excited world!) Anyway, the 1991 documentary combines behind-the-scenes filmmaking with cast/crew reminiscences. Almost everyone recalls a lot of hard work in desert heat, but also a heck of a lot of slapstick fun. One other thing I treasure about the movie is that the Southern California desert landscapes are deserted for miles–no other cars and no homes, unbiased an occasional truck and gas status.
For 22 years, Paul and I and others have been on a futile quest to restore IT’S A Inflamed, Angry, Inflamed, Indignant WORLD assist to its unusual 192 dinky Cinerama world premiere length. The closest we have advance is the 182 small reconstruction on home video and cable TV, and it includes preview material. So we are peaceful missing at least ten minutes of crucial visual material and as mighty as fifteen minutes. Included in the quiet lost material (I have the complete script–I judge) are Shawn stealing his married girlfriend’s (!) convertible, more of Buster Keaton’s cameo as a crook, getting Jim Backus INTO a shower he subsequently is removed from, the identity of a curious man in the police state (he is a police reporter told to sit on the narrative for now), Tracy learning who Silvers is (an unemployed piano player and gambler), and the beginning of almost all the police office scenes. Fresh prints, including the 182, join them in progress.
There are easy-to-find Internet articles on Stanley Kramer’s immortal masterpiece that claim the broad Robert Harris and James Katz, who restored VERTIGO and MY Lovely LADY among others, want to reconstruct Aroused WORLD. My Internet sources claim Harris has in his possession “188 minutes of bona fide world premiere footage.” Only four minutes missing off the recent 192 itsy-bitsy print–close enough for me! The Internet claims further that Harris unbiased is waiting for a $2 million remove order–lunch money in today’s Hollywood–to do the work that needs to be done to restore this astounding movie support to the length it ran when it opened in Los Angeles on November 7, 1963; the version that early in 1964 got six Oscar nominations.
We owe it to the memory of a large filmmaker and a elegant cast, many serene very grand alive, to reconstruct and restore IT’S A Aroused, Inflamed, Inflamed, Furious WORLD from 154 or 161 minutes to 192 minutes for theatrical re-release (it has always been an audience well-liked) and letterboxed 2.76 ratio home video sales. It is a precious portion of our cinematic and cultural heritage. THIS REVIEW IS BASED ON THE 161 Microscopic DVD and 182 Puny CABLE TV PRINTS.
It’s a Excited, Excited, Furious, Excited World is a classic comedy. Combining mountainous name talent, it tells the sage of what happen when a group of strangers finds out where $50,000 is buried. Soon, these normally law-abiding citizens are speeding, stealing, and destroying property. What they don’t know is the police are observing them the entire time. As the situations gather more out of hand, the movie gets funnier.

I wasn’t that impressed the first time I saw this movie. But on repeated viewings with friends, I’ve arrive to indulge in it more. The actors are phenomenal and the material has a timelessly amusing quality to it. I’m young enough that I don’t stare all the stars, but that doesn’t diminish my enjoyment at all.
I was enraged when I found out that the movie was coming to DVD, but I’ve got to say the final product disappointed me. I have only seen the “restored” VHS version that’s been out for years. This DVD goes support to the fresh theatrical release and cuts out some of my popular scenes. They are included in the deleted scenes allotment, but it’s a very poorly idea out share that makes it hard to collect what you want to sight. The DVD does include generous relate and sound, and I have always enjoyed the documentary included from the videos.
This is a classic movie that everyone should observe. However, if you’re a fan of the new videos, be forewarned that this is not the entire movie you are ancient to seeing. Hopefully, this movie will be reissued on DVD with this footage added aid.
