  • Another great, rarely seen two-reeler from Columbia Pictures, this time pairing boxing greats Max Baer and Slapsy Maxie Rosenbloom. These guys couldn't act their way out of a wet paper bag, but Baer throws one of the best stage punches I've ever seen.
    A unique pairing for the shorts department, the two Maxes would appear in a total of four two-reelers at Columbia...and as in many of the other Columbia comedy shorts from this era, Emil Sitka steals the show.

    Thanks for showing this rare film. I've never seen one of the Baer-Rosenbloom films and have wondered about them for many years. I grew up in Max Baer's town (Livermore CA) and used to go to Max Baer Park as a kid.

    In the winter of 1947, Slapsy Maxie and Max Baer starred together at the Kitty Davis Nightclub on Miami Beach. They had a complete comedy show they performed THREE shows nightly.

      I'm 31. But I do prefer a lot of old things. Old stuff from the 20th century and a couple of things from before the mid 2000s is much better than all that new stuff.

    Slapsy also had a bit on a old radio show called "Duffy's tavern". He played a guy getting a job doing chores in the bar for 10 cents a day. But he was terrible at the job. He messed up most of the tasks he was asked to do,---so he asked for a 100% raise. Duffy: "You got a lot of nerve asking me for a raise when you don't have any experience!" Slapsy: "Yea, but, you gotta understand. The job is twice as hard when you don't know what your doing!"

      No! He made four with Rosenbloom. I have a total of 3 of them in my collection (the others are TWO ROAMING CHAMPS and WINE, WOMEN AND BONG).
      I'm missing ROOTIN' TOOTIN' TENDERFEET.

      There is no such thing as a person who is a Boxing and UFC champ, and there never will be. All they can do is pick one for a championship, and try the other, which rarely is a good fight.

    A shame about that "The Shorts Department" logo being so big. Covers too much of the screen.

    • @TheShortsDepartment
      @TheShortsDepartment  8 месяцев назад +1

      Yeah, I don't like it too much, either. I did that one a while ago before I had a program with a transparent watermark.
      I do have two other Baer and Rosenbloom shorts called TWO ROAMING CHAMPS and WINE, WOMEN AND BONG as well as the original script for ROOTIN TOOTIN TENDERFEET that was Moe Howard's. He would sometimes take scripts for other comedians to see if there was anything that might work for the Stooges (I also have his script for LET DOWN YOUR AERIAL which was reworked as GOOF ON THE ROOF).
