"King of Laughter" From Vaulderville to Hollywood and television, the late Red Skelton was truly the King of Laughter, and this hilarios compilation celebrates his reign with comedy bits, sketches and Red's trademark ad-lib's. Of course, Red enacts such memorable characters as Cauliflower McPugg, Clem Cadiddlehopper, Willie Lump Lump, Deadeye and BBC newscaster Lord Beaverhead. You'll also see rare clips from a rehearsal show with Martha Raye, which never aired on TV, and the classic blooperthat occured when an onstage cow contrbuted its own "ad-lib." "The Inspector General" In Russia in the 1800's, an illiterate stooge in a traveling medicine show wanders into a strange town and is picked up on a vagrancy charge. The town's corrupt officials mistake him for the inspector general, whom they think is traveling in disguise. Fearing that he will discover that they have been stealing the tax money, they make several bungles to attempt to kill him. This screw-ball comedy is Danny Kaye at his very best! - Product Description
