Always liked Edward Everett Horton's onscreen persona, a bumbling and misunderstood aristocrat. He was amusing as he tried to explain himself and in "Nobody's Fool" we get an entire movie of his 'schtick'. But it becomes tiresome midway through and the plot is muddled, in part due to his habit of taking the wrong meaning from the statements of others.
He is a civic-minded naif who becomes mixed up with real estate con-men, who take him for a master con-man due to the situational dialogue. If you like Glenda Farrell, she is a saving grace here as a wisecracking something-or-other, and she is great.
Pretty good movie for Horton fans, even if his character is ladled on with a trowel.
6/10 ****** - Website no longer prints my star rating.
