In 1969, a most unlikely star was born… a Volkswagen vehicle by the name of Herbie. Over the next four decades, Herbie went on to star in several movie sequels, appeared in Disney theme park parades and traveling shows and even starred in his own television series. Herbie was at it again in the most recent return to the screen, Herbie Fully Loaded. But it was on this day in 1977 that Herbie found himself in the French Riviera in Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo, featuring the human talents of Dean Jones, Don Knotts, and Julie Sommars, and of course… Herbie, who revved up the audience with lots of laughs.
