Great comedy! I never tire of his movies, just good humor and it's always a treat to see the countryside, automobiles, the architecture and clothing styles, etc. from back then. Thanks for downloading this treasure!
Thank you for publishing this rare silent film of the great W.C. Fields. I have seen this film twice at screenings in NYC. I am sure all of the W.C. Fields Fan Club Members will enjoy this film and they do not have to wait for a screening at a film society or museum. Ted Wioncek Jr., President W.C. Fields Fan Club
Ol' W.C. could do it all. He was a silent or 'dumb' act in vaudeville for years and he was very popular in radio later on ... sound films combined it all! His ability as an actor is often overlooked but that's a big part of what sells the comedy. I think he could have been a great straight actor ... but then we'd have missed all those laughs. Thanks for posting this!
Gracias Ted W., On W.C.'s death bed, asked him if religious, he said ''I'm looking for a loophole''. A great way to conduct your life, the 'W.C. School of Child Rearing'. How I raised my daughter, Liz now a 21 y/o, and she turned out 'all right'. Keep up the 'good work'. Regards, Mark M.
interesting to see the visual gag of two men trying to get through a door. Archie Bunker and Mike did it so often on All In The Family and here it is 50 years earlier.
this film was remade as "You're Telling Me" (1934 talkee) with some changes...instead of a pony , he brings home an ostrich in the later film, and the Princess's country is never specified as part of Spain, nor is she shown as a married woman. Most of the rest of the film is quite similar...different actors though, except Fields

So far , this movie is just like . "You're Telling Me" from 1934 .
"You're Telling Me!" is a remake of "So's Your Old Man."
Interesting score...sounds like the pianist is doing a lot of reaching inside the piano to directly manipulate the strings.
Your mom’s your old man.
