There's no place like the Culver City Hotel, which accommodates a bingo-card of comic stereotypes in Under the Rainbow: Japanese tourists, little people, and aristocrats who slip into "Made at Warner" accents. Directed by the who-dini behind Son in Law, Steve Rash, this 1981 farce stars Chevy Chase as a secret agent who's out to protect eccentric royals from Europe. Meanwhile — and there are umpteen "meanwhile"s in this loopy film — Carrie Fisher plays the love interest/talent scout looking to cast munchkins for The Wizard of Oz. Zee Führer has also sent a pint-sized spy to meet a white-suited Japanese counterpart — simple, except there's a platoon of the identically dressed at the hotel.
