. . . and we haven't eaten in three full days," Ollie tells a homeowner near the beginning of ONE GOOD TURN. There was nothing funnier to the Many Greedy Mobsters film studio than poor people starving during the 1930's. As the official propaganda arm of the pernicious Pachyderm Political Party, these Fat Cat One Per Centers and their deluded Core Supporters often busted their guts laughing at famished working stiffs suffering in the final throes of food deprivation on the Big Screen. Such a warped sense of "humor" was a tell-tale sign then (as it remains Today) of the genetic mutation causing organisms to become Pachyderms in the first place, especially subject to demonic possession and totally lacking in human kindness, empathy, altruism or soul.
