Fine Feathers (1933)
** (out of 4)
The man best known for directing various Three Stooges shorts is behind the camera for this MGM one-reeler. The documentary takes a look at various birds ranging from a hummingbird to a crane and even a stork. That might not sound too exciting and it really isn't, although I'm sure a bird lover would get more of a kick out of this thing. With that said I'm sure this was a popular short back in the day as it is in color. The Technicolor really shows off a lot of colors on the birds and this here is the main reason to watch this thing. Pete Smith's narration is rather dry and unfunny this time out.
