Description: |
The Golf Specialist is a 1930 comedy short subject from RKO Pictures, starring W. C. Fields. It was his first talkie.
The film features lines such as "I more...would never hit a woman, not even my own mother." The Golf Specialist was a funny movie for the time it was made. It has some material that may be considered offensive today: for instance, there is one scene where Fields is wanted by the police, and they show his list of crimes and one of the crimes is "Teaching an Indian the facts of life."The Dentist is a 1932 American comedy short starring W.C. Fields. The film is one of four short films Fields made with the "king of comedy," Mack Sennett, at Paramount. Although Sennett was near the end of his career, he found good use of the new medium of talking pictures for comedy, as the film demonstrates. It was directed by Leslie Pearce from a script by Fields himself. THE PHARMACIST
(1933) Directed by Arthur Ripley
Following the success of THE DENTIST, this short (adapted from an old stage routine) reprises the formula of the earlier film, with Fields battling chaos at home and at work. Besides acting as an anthology of Fields' shopkeeper gags, THE PHARMACIST also brings together two sides of his persona: domineering at home, meek and submissive behind the counter. less
