Does little. As a matter of fact, this one almost bankrupted its studio. Doctor Dolittle (Rex Harrison) is considered a nut by his neighbors. After this nuttiness leads to his arrest, Dolittle decides to avoid people and devote his life to animals since, as one who can speak all the
animal tongues (he was taught 498 different languages by his parrot, Polynesia), he serves as a unique link between human and beast. With Anthony Newley, the most irritating man in show business, and the vapid Samantha Eggar at his side, the doctor sails off to find the elusive Great Pink Sea
Snail and the Giant Lunar Moth in the South Seas, but no box office.
