Last Train to Clarksville Does it look like another era? It was. He made a few comedy films that were successful.

Nooooo. What a cool family. Do you remember his movies: Elephant Parts and TV Parts? Pretty funny for the time.

I had no idea they existed until just this moment. They used to play the reruns of the TV series in the 80s, that's my primary exposure to The Monkeys. Elephants Parts is where the Tragically Hip got their name from apparently! I'll have to check that out sometime.
