Watch this movie.
Who could believe this was W.C. Fields first feature film?
He throws beer bottles out of his airplane window. He drives a car through a hotel. He sleeps with — well, in the bed next to — a young woman by accident then next to (on purpose) an elderly Chinese gentleman.
This movie has lines such as when a young woman says she’s sitting on something, W.C. Fields’ character replies “I lost mine in the stock market.” Moments later the young lady reaches between her legs and says “there’s something down here” and shows W.C.’s character a pussy (cat).
If you’re uptight and P.C. go watch Teletubbies. If you’re a man (or woman) who doesn’t need your shorts adjusted, watch this movie! (70 min.)
Don’t miss the Biography Channel bio of Fields included on the DVD. It’s very interesting and informative.
Available on DVD in the “W.C. Fields Comedy Collection (The Bank Dick, My Little Chickadee, You Can’t Cheat an Honest Man, It’s a Gift, International House.”
