'The Bank Dick'

After 29 years, this is my first ever W.C. Fields film.

Always a punchline growing up, I couldn't really name you a Field movie and all I really refer to him is the bulbous red nose, the fat face and the "my lil' chickadee" line.

"The Bank Dick" is highly ridiculous. It runs through a variety of mishaps and happenstance opportunities for Fields' character where he falls backwards into liquor and money despite being a total waste of space.

Meanwhile, Joe from "The Three Stooges" serves as the mysterious bartender.
