I dunno, but it looks like it might be a long time until the Warner Archive gets around to releasing this one on DVD. It was an MGM release in 1969, and that company's films mostly went to Warner Bros. after Ted Turner got through with them.
This movie would have been much better if it had been a big-screen version of LAUGH-IN, or as a really funny comic spoof of THE MALTESE FALCON (1941), with all the LAUGH-IN cast in guest parts. As it is, it's a one-joke gag stretched to movie length.

Good points... I dvred it because I figured it was exactly that, or at least a spoof of Falcon; using the cast of Laugh-In would have been genius. My Mom and I were very disappointed.

You're being much too kind. This movie was terrible. I fast forwarded through most of it and deleted it when I got to the end. Lousey!

The Warner Archive has just released THE MALTESE BIPPY on Made-to-order DVD.
