Edgar Kennedy, the "King of the Slow Burn," began his film career in 1914 as one of the originaI Keystone Kops. In 1931, at the beginning of the Sound Era, RKO Studios hired Kennedy to portray "Mr. Average Man," in a series of slapstick two-reeIers that lasted 17 years at a half-dozen titles per year. Kennedy is perhaps now best remembered as the peanut vendor, brilIiantIy performing his famous "slow burn" in the Marx Brothers' 1933 masterpiece, Duck Soup. Presented here are ten hilarious sampIes of the comic shorts that made Kennedy such a beIoved character. - Ed Hulse
