POm^JDS OF TROUBLE"
•'4-0 Pounds of Trouble, which stars
Tony Curtis, Suzanne Pleshette, and intro
duces Claire Wilcox,will be at the GALAX
THEATRE Thiirsday-Friday, June 27-28,
The story deals with the efforts of a
suave, dapper hotel-casino manager, whose
establishment straddles the Nevada-Cali-
fornia border on Lake Tahoe to avoid ali
mony payments to an ex-wife who lives in
California! to avoid romancing the attrac
tive ”niece” of his boss, which is hard to
do because he is in love with her5 to avoid
damaging business publicity because he has
permitted a lonesome little girl to remain
hidden in his hotel and in his apartment,
specifically, when she should have been
turned over to the courts.
In the ensuing events, Tony finds he
rather enjoys the intrusion of a little
girl in his bachelor quarters, and his
strict discipline gradually gives v;ay to
complete surrender of her innocent bland
ishments. The culmination is a daring
trip to Disneyland for Tony, Suzanne Ple
shette and Claire Wilcox, playing the pre
tend roles of father, mother and daughter,
when Tony knows that if private detectives
in California catch up with him it could
mean 40 tons of trouble, not merely the
4.0 pounds by the title of the picture.
The end result is a Disneyland holi
day and chase the like of which every
movie goer the world over may dream of
actually experiencing for himself or with
family. Through all these goings on, Miss
Pleshette is outstanding as a radiant new
screen personality, alive with "presence”
and unusually responsive. She and Curtis
prove exceptional romantic foils for each
other. Not to be overlooked in all the
shenanigans is Phil Silvers in his role
as "Bernie the Butcher, ” the ”Mr* Big*’
from Chicago who is the real ox-mer of the
Casino,
In addition to the Disneyland locale,
the Lake Tahoe sequences also were shot on
location, principally in and around sump
tuous Harrah^s Club at the south end of
the Lake«
