Featuring Shemp Howard (Solo)
74 min. (Feature Film)
W. C. Fields is great as Egbert Souse ("accent grav on the e"), a dedicated drinker who ends up directing a picture, foiling a bank robbery and becoming the bank guard (or "dick"), involves the bank clerk in love with his daughter in buying mine stock with bank funds, and then stalling the bank examiner. One hilarious scene after another!
Shemp Howard plays "Joe Guelpe," Fields' best friend and bartender of the Black Pussy Cafe.
