Richard Dreyfuss and sharks underwater before “Jaws”
Published by bernie4444 , 16 hours ago
Research Scientist Fred Miller (Tony Randall) invents the underwater house of the future. His boss, T.R. Hollister (Jim Backus), thinks it was a waste of money. So, to save his job and commit to secrecy, Fred convinces his “typical” family to live there for 30 days. And we know what happens when a typical family gets stuck together for 30 days anywhere.
The film is a tad dated, and you must slog through hokey parts. We hear sixties bubblegum. There is an exceptional amount of slapstick fillers. However, it is fun to see actors before they were fully formed, and those actors who are not with us anymore.
A partial list of actors:
Tony Randall
Janet Leigh
Jim Backus
Ken Berry
Charlotte Rae
Richard Dreyfuss
Arnold Stang
Harvey Lembeck - Beach Party (1963) - Eric Von Zipper
One day, we may see a revival of Fluffy (1965) with Tony Randall and Shirley Jones. I was lucky enough to get a copy from the net.
