John Candy’s erotic novel Planes, Trains and Automobiles has been restored by a fan

The script states that Del is reading a “pornographic novel” and originally included a scene in which Del remarks that he has finished reading the book (which he describes as a “damn thing”). But the title of the book is never spelled out.

The Canadian mounted took on a life of its own in the years that followed; for example, Candy fan (and fellow Canadian) Ryan Reynolds is seen reading a copy of the paperback Deadpool 2 And Dead Pool & glutton.

As mentioned in the Planes, trains and automobiles “Trivia Guide” by Mark Leslie (that is Also called The Canadian mounted), although it is supposedly a prop, the book is completely real. The Canadian mounted was published in 1981 by Bee-Line Books, the company behind other erotic pulp fiction titles such as Let her be lustful And Seduce me… anyone!

Bee Line books reportedly went bankrupt in 1987 and copies of The Canadian mounted appear to be extremely rare, leading some booksellers to believe that this is indeed the book a prop made for the production. But three years ago, a fan claimed to have found a copy, and indeed posted some excerpts from the novel on Reddit. The pages contain lines like: “Jean and Anne-Marie pretended to swim – he actually rubbed his hard tool on her ass!” So ​​not exactly Faulkner.

According to the same fan, the book’s copyright was “never registered,” so he scanned the whole thing, then “cleaned up the artwork” and “reset the book (exactly as it was, line for line). ” And now he has put it up for sale Print on demand website.

This is good news for anyone who is a big fan of the film or just wants to find out what happens to “Nymph of the North” Anne-Marie.
