Miss Polly (1941) HAL ROACH COMEDY

[@pennygrace4me720]

I loved this silly old movie . I needed a break from all the troubles this morning.

[@shanniworld8310]

So true.

[@elioselectric468]

Just how I was feeling today! You know I love in these old movies how 1st of all when they have a story they tell it & they didn't need to make it "2 hours" long or run over & fill it "filler"(for lack of better terms) & the same w/older music....The song would be "sung" ;) & then ended! I also love how in the 30-'s 40's films we get to see all of these actors who were trained for silent movies too. They use their eyes etc much more...It always makes me think of growing up watching Young Frankenstein & my dad would tell me that about the actor who played Igor the hunchback assistant...I guess he came from the silent era.

[@alvexok5523]

@@elioselectric468, that's right. Also, before the beginning of sound in films, they had to rely purely on visual slapstick for effect, which is why many films such as the Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin films had so much of people falling over, pushing and punching each other, chasing each other, seeing things like houses and buildings and other objects crumbling apart and breaking. And like you said, people using their eyes much more, and they had exaggerated facial expressions, and heavy hand and arm gestures. Because they were unable to fill in any time with verbal dialogue, physical slapstick had to be continuous and exaggerated from how it was once talking pictures began in the late 1920s

[@kimdudds]

A great movie. So glad I found it. Certainly lightened my day. 😊

[@dontaylor7315]

@@elioselectric468 Your post prompted me to look up Marty Feldman ("Igor") and I found he was born in 1934 - too late for silent movies but you're still right, he would have been GREAT in silent comedy.

A flustered Zasu Pitts is one of the treasures of old movies.

[@1949MC]

This is the kind of movie I grew up with. Better than almost anything out there in the last 40 years.

[@11froglegs]

Not True!!!!

[@elosasanchez1243]

I agree

[@kjmhun]

my gram gram was born in 1942 and i was really shocked to know these were the movies back then,it makes me feel so happy watching old movies like this that my gramgram used to watch

[@TheKoolbraider]

I laugh out loud every time I see Zasu after taking a swig from the bottle! Comedies should all be as fun as this!

[@MrMenefrego1]

This is a sweet old movie co-starring the great Zasu Pitts; I recall her from her appearances on Fibber McGee & Molly, and she was hilarious!

[@lordcron]

I love these old time comedy movies. So funny!

[@jewelwilson5898]

I Love these old movies. So light and easy on the heart and mind.

[@veldawells2839]

My 11 year old daughter enjoyed watching this today. I think one of the male actors is from Wizard of Oz and played Tin Man. Wonderful short. Zasu Pitt was wonderful. Another Hal Roach classic. Thank you.

[@389383]

No that was Jack Haley.

[@mjremy2605]

No, you are mistaken. Jack Haley played the Tin Man in the Judy Garland version from 1939. In the cast of Miss Polly was released in 1941. The cast does not include Jack Haley.

[@janethartwig774]

Zasu Pitts was such a fantastic actress. What a fun movie this is. Thank you for posting this wonderful movie.

[@oscarbrody762]

Hello Janet, how are you doing today?

I remember Zasu Pitts from her appearances on Fibber McGee & Molly; she was hilarious!

[@torim6334]

❤️😃I love these old classes because I find that it takes to another way to unstressed , laugh , unwinds with no violence or blood in it . A happy go lucky movie that makes you feel good .😃 ❤️ Keep up with these great movies❤️

[@smokeynedith3555]

I remember watching these kinds of movies on TV with my mother when I was a kid. They sure don't make movies like that anymore. No foul words or indecency. Everything clean and you still got the story. I'm glad KZbin can allow us these nostalgic moments. I miss that life.

[@sarahellis5286]

So good! Lovely funny old film. Thank you for uploading.

[@AcornHillHomestead]

So fun to watch. I love movies like this!

[@irestrepo2788]

Hahahahaha! This movie... Awesome! I would go to the theaters if movies like this played.

[@vernalc2449]

What a GREAT old film! Witty, funny, perfectly cast-it has it all with a subtle touch of tomfoolery! @PizzaFlix this has to be one of the BEST sauces you have ever put on a five-cheese pizza!! From the great ZaSu Pitts playing Miss Polly all the way down to Slim (the gardener and inventor), Minerva (neighbor), Patsy, and Eddie, they were all perfectly cast and had me laughing all through the film and that is rare! TY for posting this rare gem. That ending at the meeting where all the hypocrisy was exposed makes one realize that times do not change-only the people do.

[@davidcopperfield-notthemag397]

Sooo funny and clever! Polly is extremely tolerant. A great gal! I have noticed that people made great movies in the 40's! I watch them all.

[@dontaylor7315]

I'm a little more picky but when Zasu Pitts is the star that's good enough for me!

[@debbailey6365]

The 40's movies..my favorite

[@susansackrison3139]

Most of the 40’s movies are great!!

[@kathyellison332]

[@STORMY0O]

What a cute movie! The world could use more silliness in it too! Excellent!

[@jackwalder874]

The problem with this movie is it's too short. Wanted it to keep going. Thank you for uploading it.

[@shanniworld8310]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@pa3997]

It was a so-called Streamliner, 40-50min Films which Hal Roach produced in the early 40s - they were supposed to be shown before the A picture

[@benceseger7748]

Same thing, IT'S THE BEST MOVIE!! I was laughing all the way to the end!

[@dontaylor7315]

I like this length. It suits me that 40s/50s flicks were so often under 90 minutes; I like a 50-80min film noir washed down with a 45-70min comedy, especially if the comedy has Zasu Pitts in it.

[@jude4381]

What fun and the actors are all my favorites, thank you!

[@pammcwhorter877]

Cant beat these movies. Loved those times. Its gotten bad and all the movies are violence poorly written movies

[@charlenecx]

Love these old movies thanks. So innocent! Makes me wonder will we be watching any of our modern day movies in 70 years from now??? I think not, take 2018 all average movies nothing that I will watch next year let alone 77 years from now:-)

[@sarahcrews2544]

I love ZaSu Pitts. I even got her candy cookbook :) thanks for the upload

[@mjremy2605]

That was so delightful, and genuinely funny! Loved it. Thank you for uploading this classic! She was a lovely woman. ZaSu Pitts (Say-Zoo) born 1894, is a combination of names from her father's two sisters: Eliza and Susan. Her childhood home is still standing at 208 Lincoln Street, Santa Cruz, CA She married John E. Woodall, who was 6 yrs younger than her in 1933 (she was 40 yrs old), they remained married till she died at age 69 in 1963. He was born 1901and died 1988.

Set a little after 1911, they're still wearing long dresses - a sweet comedy about a little town that's too morally pure for its own good Charming, funny, and entertaining. Appropriate for the whole family. I enjoyed it a lot.
