Half A Flask of Fields Meets Silent Comedians For Fun & Frolic
6 January 2018
Warning: Spoilers
When you check this cast out there are so many folks from silent comedies that you might call it an all star outing. Even the women are funny. The main Ms.Roberti is a Polish-Comedic Actress who is billed as being "Irrestible To Men". She is built pretty good, and does better jokes than the ethnic variety. Her main brunette competitor in real life was Harpo Marx wife.

This is the same studio and production team that was making the Marx Brothers great Duck Soup and even greater Horse Feathers, plus Monkey Business. One of the writers credited was actually one of the pen names for Fields, who worked well with the director of this one. The plot involves the LA Olympics so the studio put togther an all comedy star olympics of their own.

The pace is frantic, especially those million dollar legs. While it is all in fun, when President Fields wins 2 Gold Medals, he deserves them and in the next few years would earn many more.
