One of my favorite Dean Martin movies not to mention it has Ricky Nelson in it too! This movie is great, if you haven't seen it you should even if you don't like older movies. Love this movie could watch it over and over.

Nathan Burdette: "I don't like that kinda talk. Now you're practically accusing me..."
