A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum

“Something for Everyone!”

Why would a slave bargain so hard for a courtesan he has no use for? Pseudolus (Zero Mostel) has one goal, his freedom, and the price is delivering a virgin courtesan to Hero (Michael Crawford), his smitten young master. Richard Lester keeps the household crowded and loud, Hysterium (Jack Gilford) wringing his hands while Buster Keaton's Erronius wanders past in his final screen role.
