    This is an hysterical and largely unknown short

    It is beyond wacky and bizarre with commedience Vince Barnett ( very famous in his time but not much for films) being put on trial for for a variety of insane reasons. It makes the Marx brothers look like straight guys and a rare chance to the great Max Davidson in a speaking roll.
