Cleveland Cult Film Festival 7 Film Classics in 35mm!

W.C. Fields, in perhaps his funniest film, plays Egbert Sousé, a henpecked, hard-drinking husband and father who becomes a security guard after accidentally stopping a bank robbery one day. In a 1963 poll, Stanley Kubrick ranked this comedy #8 on his Top Ten movies of all time. With Franklin Pangborn and Shemp Howard. 35mm print from the Universal Pictures studio archive! 72 min. Preceded at showtime by Fields’ surrealistic 21-min. short The Dentist (USA, 1932, 16mm, dir. Leslie Pearce).
Special admission $10; members, CIA & CSU I.D. holders, age 25 & under $8; no passes, twofers, or radio winners.
