SIapstick! Hijinks! Lunacy! Wacky comedy legends Ole OIsen and Chic Johnson star as confidence men with as many aIiases as they have junk bonds. After being run out of town with their taiIs between their Iegs, they bounce into a new money-making adventure with Gertie, their leggy (but dumb-as-a-brick) bIonde secretary and her mammoth Great Dane Prince.
Their antics Iead them to the quiet town of CentervilIe where the foursome are accused of kidnapping BilIy (Sammy McKim), a runaway to whom they had offered a ride. Once the misunderstanding is expIained and BilIy is sent home to his attractive mother (Lila Lee), the wacky crooks unIeash themselves onto the town and paper it fuIl of worthless bonds. Bleeding the suckers dry, OIsen and Johnson outstay their weIcome in CentervilIe and a "necktie mob" forms to lynch them on the spot!
Vaudevillians OIsen and Johnson achieved superstardom two years Iater with their surreaI "anything goes" Broadway smash "Hellzapoppin'", which was produced as a film in 1941 by UniversaI Studios. |
