Very good display of trick shots in bowling by a master
This short was nominated for an Oscar as a novelty short. It's basically showing a very good bowler doing the trick shots he was well-known for at the time. Andy Varipapa was a professional bowler who made a decent living doing shows from town to town performing trick shots in front of audiences and this features some of his better ones. Pete Smith's narration is well-suited here. This runs on Turner Classic Movies periodically and almost always in March as filler between movies. Recommended.
