    Two Marriages, All Waiting

    Johnny Downs gets married to Marjorie Deanne, and then discovers that his boss fires all married personnel. So everyone gets on a train and goes to a the Hotel Bilkmore, where Miss Deanne sulks, Downs keeps trying to sneak in past hotel detective Arthur Q. Bryan and Bryan's bride, Helen Lynd.

    It's a typical Columbia comedy short, long on sound effects and painful slapstick, short on logic and laughs. But when Bryan shows up, I can't help but laugh at his voice -- he's best remembered for voicing Elmer Fudd -- his paunch, and his fine comic timing. With Bud Jamison, Fred Toones, and Dudley Dickerson.
