W. C. Fields in The Big Broadcast of 1938, Fields' last film and Bob Hope's first. Watch all the way through this video for the golf sketch. It was a variation of one Fields used in several films and is hilarious. If you get impatient, go to about 3:00.
It's a Louie!
That's really funny. It's fun to see such a young Bob Hope.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gem. I love the gag with the endless sand coming out of the shoe. How did you find this?
ReplyDeleteRegarding Bob Hope: A while back, I was listening to some of his broadcasts made during World War II, and was amused to note that, *even then*, he was making jokes about being old. Little did he realize just *how* old he was going to get . . .
