Quiz
"Mahatma Kane Jeeves" (the pseudonym used by W.C. Fields as screenwriter) is a play on words from stage plays of the era. "My hat, my cane, Jeeves!" And in fact, at the end of the film his butler does hand him his hat and his cane.

Blooper
When W.C. Fields enters the hotel room of J. Pinkerton Snoopington, a hand can be seen on the doorknob on the other side pulling the door shut.

7/10

Wanted to see a W.C. Fields movie. Check.

I always planned to see at least one W.C. Fields movie before I die and now I have accomplished this goal. Check. Well, I expected a silly movie and what I got was a silly movie. Thus, I shouldn't complain. On the bright side, it is full of funny moments, gags, and such, e.g., W.C. Fields misplacing his hat or kicking that piece of paper (several times). The car chase at the end was hilarious.

I decided to give 7 stars because it is watchable and is better than the average silly movie.

OK, I also admit that if this movie is worth 7 stars then some of the best silly movies (Chaplin, Keaton, etc.) should get a gazillion stars.

In summary, W.C. Fields, you're no Charlie Chaplin (paraphrasing Lloyd Bentsen).
