FAT WIVES FOR THIN (1930 Sennett)

This is one of Sennett’s more remarkable early talkies, not only because it features a clean-shaven Andy Clyde, but because of the untrimmed outtake at the very end. Make of it what you will. https://youtu.be/kg7PyU7ANmo

Marjorie Beebe has quickly become my favorite unsung comedian from Sennett's early talkies. As good as she is in the later Paramounts, these early Educational talkies are a revelation.

I’m with you, Ed. I’ve been very much enjoying seeing these early talkies with Marjorie.
