Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
Amiable, laid-back Aussie comedy (that became an enormous worldwide hit) about an adventurer who shows a pretty American reporter around the bush country, then accompanies her to the equally strange terrain of New York City. Irresistibly simple and old-fashioned, with a sweetness that's rare in modern comedies. Hogan, making his movie debut, also cowrote the screenplay (reportedly inspired by TARZAN'S NEW YORK ADVENTURE). For American release quotation marks were added around CROCODILE--lest anyone think it was about a reptile! Followed by a sequel. Panavision.
