1.0 out of 5 stars Poor synchronization, January 21, 2001

By 

retired consumer 999 (Stone Mountain USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: W.C. Fields, Vol. 1 - Golf Specialist/The Dentist/Fatal Glass of Beer (DVD)

It would appear that the makers of these DVDs were unaware that movie film needs a specific length of film leading to the sound decoder. Most of the audio is out of sync.

5.0 out of 5 stars Splendid short comedies, December 13, 2000

This review is from: Golf Specialist/Dentist/Fatal Glass of Beer [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Extraordinary dry wit from the master. The Dentist and The Golf Specialist are great slapstick, must viewing for comedy lovers. The Fatal Glass of Beer is something a little different, however: a satirical morality play, at the climax of which Fields--one of entertainment's great drinkers--performs a droll and tuneless song about the perils of drink. There are few broad laughs in this short, the plot of which has something to do with the Yukon Gold Rush, but Fields here may have striven more to puzzle than to amuse.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another display of comedy from one of the kings of comedy., August 18, 2000

By 

Robert Aronhalt (merlin, or United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: W.C. Fields, Vol. 1 - Golf Specialist/The Dentist/Fatal Glass of Beer (DVD)

The comedic mannerisms of the veteran comedian W.C. Fields, as he utilizes them in his comedy, are highly effective. Suffice to say that any person who enjoys' his films will find themselves in a state of almost continuous laughter. These films are good fun for everyone and are for those who delight in the solemn insanities of that king of comedians, Mr. W.C. Fields. He is wholly enjoyable, and this yarn give him ample opportunity to display his wares. If your a fan of W.C. you must add these films to your collection.
