Overnight Success
Time for another irresistible, thrilling episode in the lives of stoot Todd and stoot Kelly. For those o' you not in the know, and are slow with the current events, "Stoot" is upside-down for "sweet," get it?!
This turn at bat, they're a pair of unwitting shopgirls recruited by their boss (Jack Barty) to stay in the window demonstrating a new-fangled electric dishwasher until everyone in the crowd goes home, and I can't help but feel bad about that because the girls already look tired and worn out as it is.
We could all use a good backrub. But there isn't anything else much to feel bad about! Cherries and lemons! Together, they make a fruity little cocktail these two minds, ALSO, without a single thought.
This short almost feels as if it had been directed and flown by someone else other than usual pilot Gus Meins, but it's a ribbon-wrapped present nevertheless, with a wonderful opportunity for Arthur Houseman to perform his usual drunken wackyness. I find it to have been challenging for the girls because there is a lack of movement in this short, a claustrophobia not altogether uncommon in the rest of their work. But the ending is so precious, I can't tattle about it here simply because it'll spoil it, and I don't wanna do that for you. I'm here to give you the skinny, and boy does this daisy ever give you the skinny!
Houseman is the lush who can't go home because the show is too enticing. And who on Earth can possibly blame him?! The last moments of the short are almost oh so risqué, it drives me cuckoo!
It comes recommended just because it's so darn funny. Does it make a fella blush? I'll never tell!
