Fields' characters are so tragic, you have to laugh. Here is a man with a nagging wife, annoying kids, and lost dreams. I also can't help but think after watching W.C.'s movie that Merrie Melodies cartoons were stealing from him, or vice versa. However, if you're looking for a Fields film to watch I suggest the Bank Dick. If you fall in love with him, watch them all. With Fields, the statement holds "once you've seen one you've seen em all." However, you can't get too much of a good thing. 8/10
