One of the more interesting things to come out of the hoard that was my Fathers and his wife's condo was Profit, a funny old film commissioned by Dad to train his sales representatives when he worked for Swift Inc. Filmed circa 1973, it features a fictional game show that tortures its' contestants. What makes this little 20 minute training film remarkable is that it stars Steve Martin and Howard Hessman, both of whom went on to have illustrious careers. It also stars Jim Cranna and Julie Payne who had careers in television and theater. Finally, my siblings and I make a brief appearance at the very end as the family who was locked in a subterranean detention center (I am the one with the long curly hair who gets on the guys' leg). This is not your typical 3 minute video so grab some popcorn and sit back. I guarantee this will make you laugh.
