The Bank Dick 1940

Staring: W C Fields

In Lompoc, California, a ne-er do well accidentally stops a hold-up, is made a bank detective, acquires deeds to a worthless mine and interferes in the production of a film.

Oh, how comedy has changed in 70 years. A star vehicle, there was continual slapstick and knockabout comedy, all of which in this day and age, did not for the most part, even raise a smile.    2/10
