There's actually a movie that unites both of these dear departed actors.
Walt Disney Pictures' NO DEPOSIT NO RETURN
Don Knotts and Darrin McGavin star as safecrackers who get saddled with some kids. I've never seen it, but the set-up sounds kind of Damon Runyon-esque. Anyway, it's on DVD, if anyone wants to check it out for a dual honorary viewing.
