The Pharmacist (1933) Comedy, Short Film

[@buskahegian]

Classic Fields. I've watched all his shorts and feature films several times and still can't get enough

[@HankBukowski]

I'm on a binge too...again.

[@ronaldstrange8981]

W.C. remains one of my all time favorites. Been a fan all my life and I am now 87. There will never be another like him. Kind regards to all his fans. June, 2023.

I have been trying to find one of these comedies with the dog barking at the beginning for years ! The first time I saw The Pharmacist was in a theater 40 years ago , and they played the whole film , dog barking in the dog house & all . Good old Sennett !

[@VultureClone]

"Do you have change for a $100?" I work in retail and that hurt to hear. I had flashbacks. It's funny how something from 80 years ago is still so relatable.

[@richardgraham5051]

Keep in mind...$100 in 1933 equals about $1,300 now.

[@wutta-do5zy]

The way he jumped back in shock got me lol

92, now 93 years ago. It's okay, I was born sometime in the last century.

Hilarious! The Cuthbert bit on the phone was a riot! I love W C! 😂

Thabk you for uploading such a high quality transfer!

[@kevinwachs5905]

One of the books he mentioned to the man who bought the stamp, "The Sex Life of the Polyp" was a Robert Benchley piece.

[@sodality3970]

I just love these WC Fields shorts 😍

[@beachcaving]

My 93 year young Momzie just LHAO watching this short!😱🤯🤘Fields does "mean" well...

[@nicholasjanke3476]

W.C. Fields, Laurel And Hardy, Charlie Chaplin-these guys did their best work in short films. Their comic stories only had 15-20 minutes in them

[@jonathanpikecoleman8838]

This is absolutely HILARIOUS 😁😁!

[@seeharvester]

"What's the matter Pop, don't you love me?"

[@dsantamaria713]

Man was absolutely hilarious!!!!!

[@chrisbundy6104]

Take it in it's historical context: the man is still a comedic genius as well as a great social critic

[@annode]

Baby Ruth and Butterfinger candy bars on display. Same wrappers, well almost. 1921 & 1923 respectively.

[@riverraisin1]

Frozen Butterfingers says one ad. Hmm..sounds good.

Leaving a pharmacy unattended to have lunch, maybe in the thirties, definitely not in 2023

[@britbyname3620]

No, they just say were closed whist the pharmacist is at lunch

[@befdoglover1]

I did not know that the Butterfinger candy bar has been around that long.

[@ChristopherHaines-xv6mj]

Did you the box said protein bar?

[@alexandorno5794]

Just love the "Fanny Brice/Baby Snooks" type imitation from the actress playing Fields youngest daughter....

"A person doesn't have right's in this country anymore". That's the democratic party for you". Never changes.

Amazing

[@zorpia621]

Very interesting comments about Democratic Party, they saw the problems even in 1933!

[@kevinwachs5905]

Yes, such serious issues, like making 3 cent stamps in colors other than purple. Obviously the Democrat's malfeasance. Just as legitimate as today's complaints.

[@paulnicholson1906]

The Republican party has consistently been against anything that helps anybody except the rich. They used to say once you started making $100 a week you changed your party affiliation from Democratic to Republican. Like the song Whoopie, he doesn't make much money only 5000 per; 5000 was a pretty good salary in 1930.

[@tonyseybert8068]

Conservatives say some DUMB SHIT! That sure hasn’t changed.

[@michaelgiordano5660]

Well well well.

[@mfranssens]

Hilarious and definitely not politically correct today. Which makes it better in my opinion. The jokes stand the test of time.

[@tyronejones7341]

Image seeing great comedy without any vulgar cussing ?.

[@HankBukowski]

Why cant people just not watch and move on? Are those of us who enjoy this supposed to care about your whiny little feels?

[@thebrinx9632]

I think the words "Foxtrot Oscar" might be applicable in this case (aahhh yesss)

[@Geekchorus42]

Man...this is just weirdly abusive

[@odinson43]

U just soft!!

[@GR8FLMD3AD]

I think what you’re reacting to is Fields’ technique of greatly exaggerating everyday situational conflicts we all face. Sometimes he says things we feel in the immediate emotional moment from our reptilian brain, but we know better than to let those feelings control our actions. There’s a definite Larry David vibe to his cranky character.

[@ianmangham4570]

Autism 😮

[@greendeane1]

A film of abuse, couldn't watch it.

[@HankBukowski]

You must have watched it, liar.

[@bobmalack481]

..but you did..

[@heru-deshet359]

This may have been funny then. I find it extremely annoying.

[@brad9092]

Go watch something else.

[@HankBukowski]

As is your comment, ma'am.

[@DavidBrown-dj7tw]

I suggest you stop watching these type of clips. It will be much better for your well-being.

[@dsantamaria713]

You lack a sense of humor...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@TheThesmyths]

Is this comedy? It was painful to watch.

[@bobmalack481]

You must be a millinial. You Want top notch W.C. Fields comedy?, Watch 'It's a gift' or The bank dick'. If you feel the same then you don't 'get it'. Robert at 68.

[@GR8FLMD3AD]

There’s something for everybody.

[@aileen694]

Wow. Not a comedy to us! After fatty threatened to hit his daughter 3 times, we deleted. Violence towards females was so acceptable then, less so these days...

[@annode]

That was part of his character, he hated kids and they disturbed him endlessly. "Come on pop don't ya love me?" Lifts his fist "Why sure I love ya!" hahaha

[@riverraisin1]

You might want to shut off your internet and hide in your safe space.

It doesn't follow the very limited PC formulaic approach of the closed minded modern method of comedy, for sure. I find it refreshing.
