| Facts •Filmed June 2-6, 1937. •This is a remake of the silent comedy Home Cured (Educational, 1926), starring Johnny Arthur and directed by William Goodrich (Roscoe Arbuckle). Filmed previously as The Crazy Nut (Educational, 1929) with Franklin Pangborn. This talking comedy was directed by Charles Lamont, and featured John T. Murray. Remade by Columbia as Doctor, Feel My Pulse (1944), then again as She Took A Powder (1951), both with Vera Vague. Did you notice? •The undertaker's name is Phil Graves (played by Lon Poff). What a funny play on words that is! |
