Panic Button (1964 film)

Panic Button (Alternative title: Let's Go Bust, for some releases) is 1964 comedy film starring, Jayne Mansfield, Maurice Chevalier, Eleanor Parker, and Mike Connors.

Filmed in the summer of 1962, in Italy, and released nearly two years later, the film tells the story of how two unknown actors (Chevalier and Mansfield) are chosen to be in a big-budgeted film version of, Romeo and Juliet.

The film was known for being one of Mansfield's many "loan-out" films since her contract was dropped from 20th Century Fox in 1962. The film wasn't a big success with audiences when released, but today is considered a comic classic.
