Produced by the Van Beuren Studio in New York, and originally released by RKO-Radio in March 1934. Acquired for the 16mm "home movie" market by Official Films in 1945.

I've always gotten Bert and Eastwood mixed up. They look and act so much alike, it's scary. I've researched it extensively and they are not the least bit related.

This crudely made and poorly directed 1934 short, shot at the Van Beuren studios in New York, primarily an animation house, let’s us see a bit of what made Burt Lahr one of the biggest stars on the Broadway stage. Along with his frequent partner Ethel Merman, his over the top energy did not transfer as well to the screen as it filled a theater. He is best remembered of course for playing an animal, as we all know.

You may call it "crudely made and poorly directed." I call it charmingly simiple. And very funny.

HARRY SHANNON, the crook who pretends to defend Burt, played the forlorn father of the child Charles Foster Kane in CITIZEN KANE.
