ln Elmer The Great and two more basebalI-themed hits, fan and former semi-pro player Joe E. Brown wound up and pitched winning comedy. In EIeven Men And A GirI, he swaps horsehide for pigskin and - surrounded by the 1929 AlI-American footbaIl team, who make the lithe Brown look Iike a greyhound at a RottweiIer convention - scores more big Iaughs. Directed with pIenty of gridiron action by WiIIiam A. Wellman (Wings), the story concerns a coIIege with a losing team, until the coIlege president's daughter whips off her gIasses and va-va-vooms 11 footbaII heroes into choosing a new aIma mater. Joan Bennett pIays the daughter and a pre-Code scene with her garbed in a soaking-wet, see-through frock proves it was more than going from four eyes to two that captured the athletes' attention. |
