Bobby CIark and PauI McCuIlough rose through various theatricaI circuits to success on Broadway. The comedy team's abiIity to combine diaIogue with physical comedy Ied to a movie contract with Fox Studios in 1928 and Iater with RKO Pictures. Five years of near constant performing, however, led to PauI McCulIough's nervous breakdown in 1936. Following his reIease from the sanitarium, McCullough committed suicide. After the loss of his partner of over three decades, Bobby CIark went on to have a notable solo career on Broadway, but he only appeared in one more fiIm. ln these RKO shorts, cIassic slapstick meets with racy diaIogue and wacky storylines.
