". . .with a kick she learned before she had been saved." There are soooo many funny parts/bits in this film.

Clyde Bruckman pure genious director and W.C. Fields the great comedian. This is pure gold and a perfect winter movie.

Brockman also wrote a lot of the 3 Stooges shorts

"Tastes more like cornflakes" Fake snow in movies during this period was often made of cornflakes painted/bleached white. "As my Uncle Ichabod said, speakin' of the city, 'It ain't no place for women, gal, but pretty men go there."

Yeah, I really liked the "corn flakes" comment! During Fields' film career, the filming would take a very long time--each take Fields would ad lib something new and crack up the crew and they'd have to do another take . . . over and over!

and what a kick!

@Setebos 2 жыл бұрын

The fact that it's so obviously someone offscreen tossing a handful of snow really nails down the comedy.

Calling the Lena elk with his moose Horn should have got the Oscar for best pun of 1933

From now on, when I leave the house, I'm going to say "I think I'll go out and milk the elk".

Gave it a thumbs up! It was short and I really enjoyed the latest in silent film technology! Almost like I could hear it!

@Redspeciality Жыл бұрын

This could have been a skit on the Carol Burnett show. Exact same kind of comedy, with Tim Conway playing Chester

I'm confused. The opening credits clearly state MCMXXXIII. That's 1933 by my understanding of Latin.

I'm on your side boys, 1916 as a date for this film is to Ludacris to be typographical error.

@packerbacker69 4 жыл бұрын

I think you mean Roman Numerals.

@archenema6792 4 жыл бұрын

@@packerbacker69 We got these symbols for quantity from the Arabs, who got it from the Bharatians: 1 2 3. By your logic, these symbols are not recognized parts of the English language. Are you going to stand by your statement now?

@darknessanddistance4469 4 жыл бұрын

You may very well be right, but as we all know, this expression of numbers as written are referred to as Roman numerals. Don't confuse the situation. The date is wrong no matter how it's written. It's not a conundrum, as Fields would say. but languages are not confused dear, as Roman is not a language.

The "1933" in the title should've been a pretty big clue.
