Not Particularly Good
boblipton13 April 2021
There isn't much to this comedy act between Frank Orth, and his Belgian-born wife, Ann Codee. He's a guy who has to sleep in the park, and she's a omen who wanders by, feeding imaginary birds. It's value, if any, lies in seeing one of the lower-rung variety acts, which played for years on the circuits, and eventually led their performers into the movies.

Orth's career encompassed more than 150 roles through the end of the 1950s, and if youre familiar with movies from that era, you'll probably recognize the small, befuddled man. Miss Codee racked up a similar number of appearances. Her last was in CAN-CAN in 1960. She died a couple of years after, and Orth followed her the next year.

Unbelievable!

This was not funny on any level. I appreciate many vaudeville acts but this one is just awful. This is why people brought rotten tomatoes to the theaters.
