Featured review
Better than usual due to Chester Clute.
I am not a huge fans of Burns & Allen. They made quite a few comedy shorts in the early 1930s and there is a certain sameness to nearly all of them. But "The Antique Shop" is better...mostly due to the goofy clerk played by Chester Clute. He's actually much funnier than Burns or Allen!
George (George Burns) enters an antique store to buy a statue. Unfortunately, the salesman is nuts! But no matter how bad he is, it only gets worse when Gracie (Gracie Allen) next waits on him!
The is not a brilliant comedy....but it did make me laugh...unlike most Burns & Allen shorts. Well worth seeing and fun.
