Harry Gets A Few Good Bits In
20 November 2023
Harry's new wife, Gwen Kenyon, is jealous of all the beautiful women he used to date -- this is during the Second World War, so bear in mind that there wasn't much choice for the ladies -- so when old friend Eddie Chandler asks him to host his fiancee, Barbara Pepper overnight, Harry refuses, but is quickly worn down.

Harry's style of slapstick, which often took place in his eyes and nowhere else, would seem ill-suited for the heavy-handed style at Jules White's Columbia shorts department, and there are times when his presence here seems a waste of time, a role that could be played by any of a hundred less idiosyncratic comics. Still, he and director Harry Edwards get in a few good gags among the oversized needles and collapsing furniture.
