this was a very likable movie with Art Carney as Harry the elderly gentleman traveling across the country with his cat friend tonto. they meet several intersting people along the way. tonto does not do much, no tricks just harry's animal friend. a nice movie.Art Carney was wonderful as Harry.

Old Jewish man and his cat are evicted from their home in New York City, so he takes his retirement money and they travel across the country by bus and then by hitchhiking, meeting all sorts of fascinating characters - cameos by future stars. A nice gentle story that reminds you that while you're still breathing there is still much to experience and live for.
