''Abbott and Costello Go To Mars'' is a 1953 American science fiction comedy film from Universal-International, produced by Howard Christie, directed by Charles Lamont, and starring the comedy team of Abbott and Costello. The film follows the misadventures of Lester and Orville who accidentally find themselves aboard a rocket ship bound for Mars, but instead accidentally lands at the New Orleans Mardi Gras. The pair are then forced by bank robbers Mugsy and Harry to fly to Venus where they encounter a civilization consisting entirely of beautiful women. Despite the film's title, no one in this film actually travels to Mars. ==Plot== Orville (Lou Costello) is the oldest orphan at the Hideaway Orphans Home. He accidentally winds up inside a truck heading to a top-secret laboratory, where he is placed under the guidance of lab worker Lester (Bud Abbott) to help load supplies onto a rocket ship. While on board with Lester, Orville hits the ignition button and the rocket blasts off, flying across the country to New Orleans, where Mardi Gras is in progress. They exit the ship and witness "hideous creatures", which are actually costumed celebrants, and conclude that they have landed on Mars. Meanwhile, two escaped convicts, Harry the Horse (Jack Kruschen) and Mugsy (Horace McMahon), enter the rocket, put on the available spacesuits and head to New Orleans to rob a bank. Lester and Orville, also clad in spacesuits, are wrongly accused of the crime and rush back to the rocket ship, where Mugsy and Harry force them to launch. After landing on Venus, the four men leave the rocket ship and Orville is quickly captured by guards and brought to Queen Allura (Mari Blanchard), who informs him that Venus is only inhabited by women, as men were banished a long time ago. She takes more than a liking to him, however, and decides that he can stay if he promises to be true to her. He agrees, and has Harry and Mugsy imprisoned for their crimes. Mugsy then convinces one of the female guards to flirt with Orville to prove that he cannot be trusted. Orville "takes the bait" and the Queen orders all the men to leave her planet. Upon returning to Earth they are lauded as heroes, and Allura, who is watching the celebration from Venus, sends a spaceship to drop a cake on Orville's head. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Abbott and Costello Go to Mars」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
