Zero Mostel, Buster Keaton, Phil Silvers and an all-star cast scam their way through this boisterous romp amidst gorgeous girls, mistaken identities, stunning surprises, cunning disguises and great Sondheim songs.
I LOVE this musical comedy. The good-hearted but scheming slave, "Pseudolus" (Zero Mostel), tries to barter his freedom by helping his master "Hero" win the hand of the girl of his dreams from the brothel next door. It starts out simple, but as the story goes on, circumstances and characters seriously complicate the situation in a comedy of errors.
