No-one seems to know this film, which is a crying shame.
John Goodman is well cast as the film director, luring his audiences to the cinemas using the latest in 1960's technology (hmm) and a guy in a rubber suit. He really does make the movie. Hats off to you sir, a fine performance!
Set in the cuban missile crisis, there isn't really a whole lot of plot, or any lesson to learn from this film. But the characters are strong and well played, and it's a nice little film for the family.
(I'd love to see more of the movie- within-a-movie. 'Mant' looks like a rather hilarious little B-movie...)
