The Out-of-Towners (1970) trailer

The Out-of-Towners is a 1970 comedy film written by Neil Simon (Barefoot in the Park, The Odd Couple), directed by Arthur Hiller, and starring Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis as George & Gwen Kellerman, a couple from the fictional rural town of Twin Oaks, Ohio who takes an trip to New York City for a job position for George.

George's job has offered him a promotion as Vice-president of Sales for the New York City division of a plastic precision instrument company. So for his 9:00am interview, George brings his wife Gwen on an overnight trip to the city with a planned itinerary which includes a night's stay at the Waldorf-Astoria and a dinner at the Four Seasons Restaurant. However bad things start to occur: a huge fog diverts the flight to Boston, the airline loses their luggage, they missed the train to Grand Central Station (although they barely made it at the next stop), the train is filled way to capacity with very little food in the cafe car, a huge transit, taxi, and sanitation strike occurs upon arrival in New York, the hotel gave away their room after their 10:00pm hold, then a couple of muggings, etc. Despite all the incidents and the threats to sue all persons and/or the companies, George makes his 9:00am meeting. But is that what George and Gwen really want?

Sandy Dennis genius!!!!! actress

[sucraman2]

p.s a remake was never necessary...in my opinion.

I love Goldie and Steve but ...why remake such a classic. Standing in those pairs of shoes would be a daunting (mis)adventure..

[sucraman2]

Still, loving this mad romp through the big apple with 2 of my favourite actors.

Thanks for the post :)

@victimofugliness hehe, The Remake didn't really do well at the box office, personally i don't see why you are getting involved, Clearly the remake was made as the film industry thought the film could be improved... and it has been in my opinion, Duck77777 Said the remake sucks so why cant i share my opinion and say it doesn't and call them a silly bitch?

any how the comment does NOT concern you so don't get involved hehe thank you kindly!

@callumha1994 yep, the remake does suck in comparison to the original. this trailer may be pretty lousy, but the movie was great. and just because dukk77777 thinks the remake sucks, why does that make them a "silly bitch"?

[callumha1994]

@dukk77777 the remake sucks? okay this trailer is pathetic, and so is the film. clearly it needed remaking and even though this is the original it "sucks" silly bitch

[dukk77777]

it looks awesome and the remake sucks..

CLASSIC movies always rocks.
