What Made Pistachio Nuts?: Early Sound Comedy and the Vaudeville Aesthetic - Film and Culture Series

This study celebrates the "anarchistic" film comedies made in the USA in the 1930s, which mocked the creativity and impulsiveness of their protagonists in a form of clowning that ultimately re-established the status quo. Films discussed include "Duck Soup" and W. C. Fields's "It's a Gift".
