SpyTHINK 021: Decoding Its a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World: ANTIFAggott, bLM--and Epstein Moments

Not just a 1963 Movie!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It%27s_a_Mad,_Mad,_Mad,_Mad_World

In the early 1960s, screenwriter [EDITOR: WW2 Black Watch Combat Veteran] William Rose, then living in the United Kingdom, conceived the idea for a film (provisionally titled So Many Thieves, and later Something a Little Less Serious) about a comedic chase through Scotland. He sent an outline to Kramer, who agreed to produce and direct the film. The setting was shifted to America, and the working title changed to Where, but in America? then One Damn Thing After Another and then It's a Mad World, with Rose and Kramer adding additional Mads to the title as time progressed.[14] Kramer considered adding a fifth "mad" to the title before deciding it was redundant but noted in interviews that he later regretted it. [EDITOR: Rose's English wife Tania co-wrote It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World contemptuous of civilian normies]

The film marked the first time Kramer directed a comedy, though he had produced the comedy So This Is New York in 1948. He is best known for producing and directing drama films about social problems, such as The Defiant Ones, Inherit the Wind, Judgment at Nuremberg, and Guess Who's Coming to Dinner. His first attempt at directing a comedy film paid off immensely as It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World became a critical and commercial success in 1963 and was nominated for six Academy Awards, winning for Best Sound Editing, and two Golden Globe awards.

"Smiler" Grogan [Jimmy Durante], a just-released convict jailed for robbery 15 years earlier and fleeing police surveillance, crashes off California State Route 74. Five motorists stop to help him: Melville Crump [Sid Caesar], a dentist; Lennie Pike [Jonathan Winters], a furniture mover; Ding Bell and Benjy Benjamin [Mickey Rooney/Buddy Hackett], two friends on their way to Las Vegas; and J. Russell Finch [Milton Berle], a business owner. Just before he dies, Grogan tells them about $350,000 buried in Santa Rosita State Park under "a big W."

The motorists initially decide to share the money, but it soon becomes a race to get to the money first. Unbeknownst to them, Captain Culpeper [Spencer Tracy], Chief of Detectives of the Santa Rosita Police Department, has been working on the Smiler Grogan case for years, hoping to solve it and retire. When Culpeper learns of the crash, he suspects that Grogan tipped off the passersby, so he has them tracked.

****

The joke is on us.

I've only recently (as in yesterday) watched Its a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World as a mature adult--as a kid I loved Jonathan Winters going on a rampage destroying the nerd's desert gas station, the incredible Tallman/Mantz Beech 18 flying stunts (James Bond movie, "Octopussy" use of the CIA's favorite gun-runner plane to Cuba) and the frantic wild chase for.... In light of Carl Reiner's recent passing, his report that the Beech 18 buzzing the tower literally just arm's length away is amazing to see...

Brace yourself.

$350, 000. 

No. No. No. 

Even in 1963 stoical people would NOT lose their minds--I was actually alive then and I have a photographic memory--10 cents got you a candy bar; $1 a gallon of milk. That's it. Today $1 gets you a candy bar; $4 gets you a gallon of milk.

TRANSLATION: BIG FUCKING DEAL. 

You would NOT lose your mind for $350, 000 in 1963 anymore than today. Its simply not that much money. 

When Mike Myers redid this idea in Austin Powers, the comedic punchline aka joke was "1 MILLION DOLLARS" as ransom for threatening to destroy the entire world. 

Everyone laughs--just as everyone should have laughed at $350, 000. 

Sources & Methods

Are we to believe serious dramatic film-maker, anti-stoic Stanley Kramer; "Inherit the Wind" (Religious stoicism is bunk; God is dead, we evolved), "High Noon" (sheeple are pussy-cowards) "Judgment at Nuremberg" (Political stoicism is bunk lest we end up in concentration camps), "The Caine Mutiny", "On the Beach" (military stoicism is fatal and leads to human nuclear war extinction) is just playing with us to entertain us with a comedy to prove he could do one and somehow NOT HAVE A HIDDEN EVIL MESSAGE?

Not.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_Kramer

Stanley Earl Kramer (September 29, 1913 – February 19, 2001) was an American film director and producer, responsible for making many of Hollywood's most famous "message films".[1] As an independent producer and director, he brought attention to topical social issues that most studios avoided. Among the subjects covered in his films were racism (in The Defiant Ones and Guess Who's Coming to Dinner), nuclear war (in On the Beach), greed (in It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World), creationism vs. evolution (in Inherit the Wind) and the causes and effects of fascism (in Judgment at Nuremberg). His other notable films included High Noon (1952, as producer), The Caine Mutiny (1954, as producer), and Ship of Fools (1965).

Kramer was recognized for his fierce independence as a producer-director, with author Victor Navasky writing that "among the independents . . . none seemed more vocal, more liberal, more pugnacious than young Stanley Kramer." His friend, Kevin Spacey [EDITOR: discredited pedo-pervert], during his acceptance speech at the 2015 Golden Globes, honored Kramer's work, calling him "one of the great filmmakers of all time."[3][4]

In 1998, he was awarded the first [EDITOR: black, racist pressure group] NAACP Vanguard Award in recognition of "the strong social themes that ran through his body of work". In 2002, the Stanley Kramer Award was created, to be awarded to recipients whose work "dramatically illustrates provocative social issues".[2]

He was drafted into the Army in 1943, during World War II, where he helped make training films with the Signal Corps in New York, along with other Hollywood filmmakers including Frank Capra and Anatole Litvak.[10] He left the army with the rank of first lieutenant.[12]

After the war, Kramer soon discovered that there were no available jobs in Hollywood in 1947, so he created an independent production company, Screen Plays Inc. He partnered writer Herbie Baker, publicist George Glass and producer Carl Foreman, an army friend from the film unit.

Kramer next produced Home of the Brave (also 1949), again directed by Mark Robson, which became an even bigger success than Champion. The story was adapted from a play by Arthur Laurents, originally about anti-Semitism in the army, but revised and made into a film about the persecution of a black Soldier. Byman notes that it was the "first sound film about antiblack racism."[5] The subject matter was so sensitive at the time, that Kramer shot the film in "total secrecy" to avoid protests by various organizations.

Zinnemann said he was impressed with Kramer's company and the efficiency of their productions:

They struck me as being enormously efficient. Kramer was very inventive in finding quite unlikely sources of finance . . . This method of outside financing . . . was truly original and far ahead of its time. . . There were no luxurious offices, no major-studio bureaucracy, no small internal empires to be dealt with, no waste of time or effort. . . I was enthusiastic about this independent setup and the energy it created.[5] [EDITOR: Illuminati money to attack America?]

He finished his last independent production, High Noon (1952), a Western drama directed by Fred Zinnemann. The movie was well received, winning four Oscars, as well as three other nominations. Unfortunately, High Noon's production and release intersected with the Red Scare. Writer, producer and partner Carl Foreman was called before the House Un-American Activities Committee while he was writing the film. Foreman had been a member of the Communist Party ten years earlier, but declined to "name names" and was branded an "un-cooperative witness" by HUAC, and then blacklisted by the Hollywood companies, after which he sold his interest in the company.[5]

Five years after the film was released, producer George Stevens, Jr. helped organize a showing of this, along with other Kramer films, at the Moscow Film Festival, which Kramer and co-star Sidney Poitier attended. Stevens writes that the showings of his films, especially The Defiant Ones, were a "great success in Moscow." He remembers that "filmmakers applauded his films, often chanting Kraaaamer, Kraaaaamer, Kraaaaamer," at their conclusion. Kramer spoke to the audience after each film, "making a fine impression for his country."[14] Stevens credits The Defiant Ones for having the most impact, however:

The screening was one of the most emotional I have experienced. After the film, the crowd stood—many with tears in their eyes—and gave Poitier and Kramer an ovation that subsided only when we had left the auditorium. Stanley's visit to Moscow marked the high point in the cultural exchange between the two countries during those long years of estrangement.[14]

After the seriousness of his previous films, Kramer "felt compelled to answer" for the "lack of lightness" in his earlier films, writes Spoto. As a result, he directed It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (1963), a film with a "gifted, wacky crew of comedians."[8]:257 Kramer describes it as a "comedy about greed."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Spacey

In October 2017, actor Anthony Rapp accused Spacey of making a [EDITOR: homo] sexual advance toward him in 1986, when Rapp was 14. Numerous other men subsequently came forward alleging that Spacey had made unwanted advances and sexually harassed them as well. As a result of the allegations, Netflix cut ties with Spacey, shelving his film Gore and removing him from the last season of House of Cards. Spacey's role as J. Paul Getty in Ridley Scott's film All the Money in the World (2017) was reshot with actor Christopher Plummer in his place.[4][5]

Spacey's political views have been described as left-leaning and mirroring some of those possessed by his fictional character in House of Cards.[83] He is a Democrat and a friend of President Bill Clinton, having met Clinton before his presidency began.[84] Spacey once described Clinton as "one of a shining light" in the political process.[18] He additionally made a cameo appearance in the short film President Clinton: Final Days, a light-hearted political satire produced by the Clinton Administration for the 2000 White House Correspondents Dinner.[85]

Spacey was a friend of American financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, appearing in his contact book and flight logs for his plane.[135][136] Spacey flew on Epstein's private plane alongside Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, Bill Clinton, Chris Tucker, on a 2002 for a humanitarian trip Clinton had taken to Africa to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS.[137]

In July 2020, The Daily Telegraph released a photograph of Spacey and Maxwell sitting on thrones Buckingham Palace after being invited by Prince Andrew, Duke of York.[138][139]

IAM4W Documentary

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYWJvbMgpsg

"Its a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" (IAM4W) when viewed as a military professional who has combatted the real world DEEP STATE Illuminati aware of the dirty psyops tricks they play in Hollywood is a troubling experience. You can see the entire movie for FREE on YOUTUBE:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhxxGDcWWoc

Let's start with the weird BLACK SCREEN for several minutes and just the soundtrack score. 

WTFO?

Fortunately I am not stuck in a movie theatre having to be victimized to see the movie unfold as its instigators wanted so I fast forwarded to the opening credits because I wanted to know all the major comedy stars that will appear. 

Some kind of Mind Kontrol/hypnosis is taking place for sure. 

In the middle of the movie, Kramer in the documentary says the movie "continues" audioally (sic) while the "INTERMISSION" title is shown. Then, the movie starts up again with a flame burst in the hardware store where the two most likeable characters--the logical dentist (Sid Caesar) & beautiful wife (Edie Adams) are trapped. 

Back to the beginning.

Jimmy Durante sails his car over a mountain road, is thrown from his car and the "Normie Stoics" (NSes) go down to render Good Samaritan 1st Aid. 

Durante reveals he has $350, 000 in cash hidden under a big W in Santa Rosita park around 200 miles away. 

The NSes meet and despite the dentist's best logic can't agree to equally share the loot--the figure thrown about is $87, 000.

BRACE YOURSELF AGAIN. 

ALL THE MAJOR ACTORS IN IAM4W GOT $100, 000.

Is it then a wonder they couldn't get the loot sharing scene right after multiple takes?

The IAM4W message is stoical life sucks; 

* If you (Milton Berle) have a pretty wife (Dorothy Provine) you are stuck with her intolerable malcontent step-mother (Ethel Murman).
* If you are a truck driver (Winters) you'd need 100x trips to make $87K. 
* If you are single guys (Rooney/Hackett) you'll never make any life headway being decent unless hitting a Las Vegas jackpot (2 1/2 men copied this idea) 
* If you are a beach bum HEDONIST (Dick Shawn) you are so lazy that you don't deserve to be a criminal at least pro-actively doing that etc.

* If you are a professional POLICEMAN stoic, if you don't get your deserved pension, you'll becom a criminal as shown  with the Spencer Tracy police captain. 

* If you are a professional dentist with a pretty wife, WHY are you doing this "reality TV-like" treasure hunt since you already make this much money anyway?

THIS IS THE KRAMER POINT:

Even the professional POLICE stoic will lose his mind for a mere $350K--sort of like how black HEDONISTS will riot/loot for $100 flat screen TVs...

Get the "picture"?

Kramer is Illuminati and he is MOCKING THE 40% SHEEPLE. 

It's not a MAD world, he is saying its a morally corrupted world--a fantasy story of the reality TV shows where back-stabbing for loot is showcased.  

Along the way, a slimy snake--Phil Silvers learns of the loot and betrays Winters to include lying about his sanity to the nerdy gas station owners--he represents the 25% psych-sociopathic population sample. 

Doubt this?

Why then at movies' end when the NSes are fighting over the cash briefcase, it OPENS and $350K in cash rains down on a huge crowd below--who does nothing. They are unfazed. This doesn't computer---IRL you drop thousands in cash upon a crowd fights would break out as many would start collecting it. 

Tim Burton's 1989 Batman shows what would really happen--when Jack Nicholson''s Joker dumps cash the people riot to grab it.

So what gives, Kramer?

He must not show the crowd grabbing the raining cash to preserve his mockery stance of the NSes going crazy for a mere $350K. 

CAVEAT: perhaps if it wwre $350K in GOLD bars NS would lose their heads--gold does this to people as Commander Fleming warns us in Goldfinger--but this is just cash aka paper money.  

Wiki QUOTE:

Richard L. Coe of The Washington Post was mixed, writing "Yes, it is furious, fast and funny and it is also vast, vulgar and vexatious because Kramer has not given us one sympathetic character and because it is shown in Cinerama."

Bosom-Whipped Americans?

IAM4W posits the idea that Americans love their women's breasts to such a degree that they are "whipped" and ordered around by Ethel Murman irritable step-mother types.

There are 3x very nicely-bosomed women in IAM4W;

Edie Adams
Dorothy Provine
Madlyn Rhue as sexy secretary Schwartz of the Santa Rosita Police Department; later Khan's GF in Star Trek

I LIKE HOW THEY LOOK--a lot. 

If I had either of them I'd be contented and not even feel the temptation to go after the $350K of clearly stolen loot. 

The movie reveals it was indeed stolen--so if insurance re-paid the loss to the business--the loot ends up as a defacto "lottery" redistribution of wealth but it is indeed THEFT from innocent people even if the pain has been transferred.  

ANTIFAggott & bLM Scenes in 1963?

The black taxicab driver gets flung from the fire truck ladder--guess where he lands?

The arms of the Abraham Lincoln statue. Hmmm.

Before police Captain Dick, ehh Spencer Tracy went after the $350K loot, his police chief caused his moral collapse by stating the city would never increase his pension. While Tracy is watching the NSes converge on the big W, his chief calls the mayor and threatens to reveal ALL the CORRUPTION him and the city council has done to the press/media--unless they raise Tracy's pension. Sound familiar to today?

Sadly, despite having his decent pension in-hand, the chief can't get Tracy on the radio before he goes corrupt and confiscates the $350K from the NSes and heads towards the Mexican border. 

Summary/Conclusion

Was Stanley Kramer a moral man?

Look how he mistreated his Army buddy, Carl Foreman, writer of High Noon, The Bridge on the River Kwai, The Guns of Navarone, Born Free, Young Winston, Force 10 from Navarone: 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Foreman

High Noon's production and release also intersected with the second Red Scare and the Korean War. Foreman was called before HUAC while he was writing the film. Foreman had not been in the Communist Party for almost ten years, but declined to 'name names' and was considered an 'un-cooperative witness' by HUAC.[26] When Stanley Kramer found out some of this, he forced Foreman to sell his part of their company, and tried to get him kicked off the making of the picture.[27] Fred Zinnemann, Gary Cooper, and Bruce Church intervened. An outstanding Bank of America loan helped Foreman remain on the picture, as Foreman hadn't yet signed certain papers. He moved to England before it was released nationally, as he knew he would never be allowed to work in America.[28]

Kramer claimed he had not stood up for Foreman partly because Foreman was threatening to dishonestly name Kramer as a Communist.[29] Foreman said that Kramer was afraid of what would happen to him and his career if Kramer didn't cooperate with the committee. Kramer wanted Foreman to name names and not plead his Fifth Amendment rights.[30] There had also been pressure against Foreman by, among others, Harry Cohn of Columbia Pictures (Kramer's brand new boss at the time), John Wayne of the Motion Picture Alliance for the Preservation of American Ideals (who said he would "never regret having helped run Foreman out of this country" and called High Noon "un-American") and Hedda Hopper of the Los Angeles Times.[31] Cast and crew members were also affected. Howland Chamberlain was blacklisted, while Floyd Crosby and Lloyd Bridges were "gray listed."[32]

****

No. True morality must be based on absolutely true values over & above the concoctions of man--natural and divine laws. He was a secular humanist who saw nothing wrong with declaring God is DEAD (when he damn well is not) because the minor issue of man being able to choose to be stupid and false if he wants to is emotionally more important to HIM. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_Kramer

In the 1960s Kramer blamed the growing "youth culture" with having changed the "artistic landscape" as he remembered it from his own youth. "No longer," he said, "were writers or filmmakers interested in creating the Great American Novel or the great American film, or indeed with exploring what it meant to be American."[10]

In extreme cases, Kramer was accused of being "anti-American" due to the themes of his films, many concerning social problems or pathologies. But Kramer notes that it was his ability to produce those films in a democracy which distinguishes them:

Any American film that contains criticism of the American fabric of life is accepted, both critically and by the mass audience overseas, as being something that could never have been produced in a totalitarian state. This in itself builds tremendous [EDITOR: self-loathing] respect for American society among foreigners—a respect I've always wanted to encourage.[8]:17

****

Was he pro-American?

IMHO, Kramer was a misguided American who thought our REPUBLIC governed by the RULE OF LAWS--not men--was instead a "democracy" where individual freedoms includes being a HEDONIST if you want to be--the classic poison of the 1776 Declaration of Independence (DCI)'s "all men are created equal and have a right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness"--these NON-LEGALLY-BINDING words which are indeed French Revolutionary Enlightenment LIES--are killing America into a lazy, listless 3rd World weak economy. These lie-thoughts mislead Kramer to prop-up fake equalities when there need not be any and cry outrage when reality refuses to conform with his liberal naive, "democratic" delusions. Kramer actually thought showcasing American dirty laundry to Russian Communists (Marxist Socialism by force) bringing tears to their eyes by somehow debunking the entirety of our free way of life and instead propping up their uber blood-thirstily-corrupt ways (35, 000, 000 dead in the Stalinist purges)--was something to brag about because we tolerate self-loathing?. WTFO?    

For all of Kramer's "democracy" talk; in High Noon the sheeple puss-out in the face of the Miller gang and a heroic STOICAL sheriff, Gary Cooper has to stand up to the evil men. When the NSes have a CONFAB they can't agree to a plan to share the $350K in IAM4W. For white & blacks to get along two men have to be chained together and forced to find common ground. Not very "democratic", huh?  


However, Kramer, bothered by the film's negative reviews and wanting respect as an important film artist like François Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard, undertook a nine-college speaking tour to screen the film and discuss racial integration. The effort proved a dispiriting embarrassment for him with college students largely dismissing his film and preferring to discuss less conventional fare like Bonnie and Clyde directed by Arthur Penn.[21]:398–400

****

I bet you Kramer's idea of "democratic racial integration" was FORCED INTEGRATION of the ruling mob running the U.S. Government at the time. "Democratic" means gain SIMON SAYS! control of the state and then force down everyone's throats his immoral, secular hedonism or with a tab bit vigor, secular humanism. 

The worst Kramer film is the defeatist, nihilist On the Beach--he didn't even have the decency to present a new Noah's Ark (even a secular one like Pal's When Worlds Collide) to keep the human race going---he wants to smash all stoical behavior--embrace hedonism and tolerate all manner of degeneracies so as there'd be no vain glory wars--or else lifeboat Earth will give out and we will all die--very Soylent Green of him!  

James Bond is REAL.
