Good Short
Vim, Vigor and Vitaliky (1936)
*** (out of 4)
Popeye opens up a fitness club for women, which soon starts to take business away from Bluto's restaurant. Bluto dresses in drag to beat Popeye to a pulp so that he can claim Popeye shouldn't be training women. seeing Bluto dressed in drag is certainly the highlight of the film as he has to be one of the ugliest women in the history of cinema. Popeyes claims that no woman is stronger than him makes for some nice fights between him and Bluto. I'm sure this film would be called sexist today, which might explain the warning when the Warner DVD comes on, but it still remains fun.
