Argumento
¿Sabías que...?
- CuriosidadesThe version presently available, shown on Turner Classic Movies in January 2021, is the 1936 re-release, with a Twentieth Century-Fox logo, redesigned opening and closing credits, and original exit music eliminated. The shorter running time (85 minutes) also indicates that some editing had been done, most likely in order to meet Production Code demands which were not in effect at the time of the film's original release (though Will Rogers' exclamation "Canst thou tell me where the helleth I am?" remains in the print).
- PifiasWhen Hank is to be burnt at the stake at "high noon", the shadows on the ground indicate that the hour is between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.
- Citas
Hank Martin: Yes, sir, we're getting the supply here, and then I'll create the demand. All you got to do is to persuade people they need things that they've been happy without all their lives.
King Arthur: And by what magic wilt thou do this?
Hank Martin: Ah, by a special magic called advertising.
King Arthur: Advertising. Hmm. Is it a potent charm?
Hank Martin: Ah, potent? Say, it makes you spend money you haven't got for things you don't want.

Reseña destacada
Far-fetched tale and over-the-top humor from Will et al
This is my first viewing so I had no idea what to expect. It got off to an ominous, foreboding start as Hank, the radio repairman (Will Rogers) encounters a few peculiar people in an odd house. After his sudden "transition" (time travel) back into King Arthur's era circa 528 AD, the sounds of Ye Olde English emerge, of thee's and thou's, being spoken and Will responds with "Can you tell me where the helleth I am?" I had a good laugh over that as it pretty well sets the tone for the whole story -- incongruous dialogue, time periods, mixed in with modern conveniences like a telephone. Oh well, it's entertainment with quite a stretch of the imagination, ie., selling hot dogs at the joust meet. Will's in his element when he's on a horse with a rope in his hand and dealing out justice to his opponent. I'm not sure why conniving Merlin (Mitchell Harris) is so busy scattering sand at every opportunity, or is it stardust, or sawdust.
Myrna Loy in her role as Morgan le Fay appears to be the most well-cast and believable of the lot.
All in all it's rather over-the-edge farce but still fun to watch.
