Olsen and Johnson get an offer to appear in a Hollywood movie. However, they are appearing as comics in Franklin Pangborn's night club show. He refuses to release them. Olsen and Johnsn come up with a scheme to play practical jokes on select members of the audience who are in cahoots with them. These guys sue the night club, using the law firm run by Alan Curtis, Grace MacDonald, and Noah Beery Jr.

Olsen And Johnson's fourth and final feature for Universal can be understood as a series of night club acts by a wide assortment of singers, dancers, acrobats, and other performers -- including the Nat King Cole Trio; by the goings-on at the law firm, where the partnership is broke, except for the law suits against the night club, and where both the men are in love with Miss MacDonald; and Olsen & Johnson's zany antics, including bringing an elephant into a court room. This one has a plot, and it pretty much sticks to it. It's very funny in spots, and the specialty numbers are well staged. With Edward Brophy, Gus Schilling, and Mary Gordon.

I'd be very happy if somebody could FIND this darned thing---not even The Turner Channel has shown it;to my knowledge. I'm going by Leonard Maltin's review in the book GREAT COMEDY TEAMS.

Ole&Chic have better offers elsewhere and want to break their nightclub contract with Franklin Pangborn;who is just as eager to keep them working for him at a pittance.

So the comics erupt one night in ad-libbed destruction---Vernon Dent makes the mistake of toasting "Here's mud in your eye"--and Pangborn sells the club to Olsen&Johnson just so he can get as far away from them as he can.

But one customer has filed a damage suit and O&J have to go to court --and the beginning law firm they hire ends up prospering from the trial publicity.

The man bringing the suit doesn't help himself when he hires a violinist to play sad songs while he testifies.

The Winter Garden Theatre in Manhattan was the home of Olsen&Johnson for seven straight years---back-to-back-to back shows of HELLZAPOPPIN,SONS O'FUN,and LAFFING ROOM ONLY(they were interruped only by the musical MEXICAN HAYRIDE,by Cole Porter).(1938-1944)

I am a student of Flamenco music, and I can tell you that Carmen Amaya is a major talent and genius of the art of Flamenco. Other videos I have seen show her singing and rapping out (nodillos) Flamenco's complex rhythmic patterns with her knuckles on a wood table. Like Nat King Cole and Fred Astaire, she was able to express her music vocally, through dance and with any rhythmic device at her disposal

See my Lawyer marks the fourth and final appearance in a Universal Movie by Ole Olsen and Chic Johnson.The Boys are up to their usual antics, first trying to break a contract with a night club owner with the help of some starving lawyers.Then having to use the same lawyers to save them from a lawsuit from the man they bought the night club from.The boys act and the show is Circus themed.Needless to say when they go to Court it really does become a three ringed Circus.As usual there is interspersed many wonderful specialty acts.The Nat King Cole Trio and Carmen Amaya and her Troupe are in fine form.The Rogers Adagio Trio are unique act,a comedy Ballroom Acrobatic Trio that even as you see it,it is hard to believe some of the things they manage to pull off.Sad to say this the hardest of Olsen and Johnson films to find,but it is worth the effort. I am glad to say they get to finish their movie career in great form.
