You're Telling Me

W.C. Fields plays an inventor with a taste for drink in You're Telling Me!, a rough-and-tumble Pre-Code. Having failed to sell his latest invention, Sam Bisbee (Fields) meets Marie Lescaboura (Adrienne Ames) on the train-ride back to Crystal Springs, unaware that she is a foreign princess traveling incognito. Deciding to help make her new friend a success, Marie pays a visit to Sam's hometown where she attempts to turn an uncouth eccentric into the darling of the country club set. Co-starring Joan Marsh and Larry "Buster" Crabbe, this zany gem also features Fields' uproarious recreation of his classic golfing sketch first performed in the Ziegfeld Follies of 1918.
