one of my favorite thing about this one be see w. c. juggle . he start out his show business career a a juggler and and in this movie you get to see some of his act . even after a couple of decade of drink and he still do a creditable job and to say the least . the cigar box routine be a sight to remember . it also contain one of the odd named character in any movie and cleopatra pepperday and play wonderfully by jan duggan . the scene where she sing gather up the shell by the seashore be wonderful . or when she rehearse her line in the play and here come the prince . there be also a fascinating little cultural artifact within the movie a production of the drunkard and a 19th century hit and no doubt popular when william claude be a mere lad . a per usual and w. c. field be incredible . the fascinating thing about him and to me and be the subtlety of his performance . it doesn not look subtle and i will grant you and but what strike me be that there be many layer to his perform in movie . on the one hand and there be the huge gesture and loud and familiar voice and but on the other hand there be the muttered aside and the precise facial reaction and the absurd failure to accomplish the simple task and like put his hat on his head without get it catch on a cane . that what i mean by subtle and you almost miss it and then you can not explain to yourself what it be that be so incredibly funny about what he do . there a bit of controversy about the scene where he kick baby leroy in the bottom and knock him across the hall . there be many story of w. c. work with baby leroy . apparently and on one occasion and field pour gin into baby leroy bottle and and when the child begin throw up and fall over and w. c. snort and i tell you he be no trouper . i think it awful that so many of w. c. field film be not yet release on dvd . this be an oversight that should be rectify soon and we hope .
