The Love BugThe title might suggest an aphrodisiac, but it refers to a cute Volkswagen called Herbie, who is the fastest car in the world if he approves of his driver. He unaccountably approves of dreary Jones as a reckless racing driver. When Jones and his unfunny sidekick Hackett race against villainous Tomlinson, who uses every trick in the book to win, the phenomenal Herbie triumphs. The Boy-Car-Girl movie has some terrific driving stunts, thanks to a 127-man crew and the Porsche or bus engine given to the car with a mind of its own. The film was a huge hit and so engendered three Herbie sequels.
