Trivia:
Although the film was written by 'Joseph Mankiewicz' and Henry Myers, it is often mistakenly attributed to Mankiewicz' older brother, 'Herman Mankiewicz' , later the co-author of Citizen Kane (1941); Herman, then an executive at Paramount Studios, had hired Joseph as a writer there, and had contributed to the writing of the movie's opening title card. more

The return of a comedy gem., 13 October 1998
10/10
Author: WCFIELDS from Baltimore, Md

On this date Oct 13, Universal released this film on video. Besides WC Fields there are a host of well-known comedians who contribute to the merriment found in this film. Susan Fleming (the future Mrs Harpo Marx) plays WC Fields' daughter. Also there is Lyda Roberti A very sexy Femme Fatale. This film has many laughs packed into its short 62 minute length. Guaranteed well over a laugh a minute. this film is not to be missed by anyone who is a fan of The Great Man.
