About
At first, sorry to tell you that this movie is incomplete, because there are only 3 from the 5 acts available. But better something then nothing. This is a Dutch version with the strange title "Voor geen kleintje vervaard" and is subtitled in Dutch. Furthermore to mention, the film was very damaged and you can see that this 16mm is a copy from another one or maybe a 35mm version and has no sound, while the original film has a soundtrack.
Joe Bolton (Joe E. Brown), a wealthy man has just returned from China. He is trying to settle down in a community where the game of polo is the sport to play among the rich people of the area. Joe wants to make Mary Hilton (Carol Hughes) be interested in him. How to go about it? Polo, that's how! The only thing is Bolton is allergic to horses. Any time he is near them he starts sneezing. There is a great sequence that involves Bolton practicing with a little donkey that his valet, Heywood (Charles "Skeets" Gallagher)brings into one of the rooms of Aunt Minnie's mansion. The results are hysterical. Joe E. Brown proves he was an actor capable to the viewer laugh. The supporting cast is excellent.
