The Battle of the Sexes (1928)
This movie cracks me up!

Seeing this movie in 2007 makes it twice as funny! I'd like to see the reaction of the wife in the 21st century! I know what my reaction would be. The middle-aged, overweight husband is really funny in thinking somebody would fall for him! I'm not sure what kind of recourse she would have had back then, but I would have told him that he'd better come to his senses or I would drag him through divorce court by his (thinning) hair and skinned him for everything he had and some. The wife is also about twice as big as the floozy, so I would probably have pounded her into the ground. But, that wouldn't been nearly as funny as the melodramatic way the family behaves. It's a good morality tale, however.
