A curiosity. Obviously very cheap. Better sets than Cocoanuts but ata similar level narratively i.e. a filmed, stagey, sketch show than just stops after about 70 minutes. Zeppo makes a rare appearance and does not trouble the scorers.

Not fun but eye popping and revealing. Is it the last hurrah for a dying junkie? Or the affirmation of the spirit? Or an endorsement of the no 1 Musical number of all time?

An appalling box office bomb in the USA so maybe this is the last twitch of a franchise that's done its dash. Not much new and exciting.
