    Fooling Some Of The People Some Of The Time

    Leon Errol gets fired for telling his boss the truth. His work buddies take him out for a few drinks. Driving home to wife Anita Garvin, he runs out of gas and doesn't get home until the next morning. By that time, she suspects the worst. Acting on his friend's suggestion, he tells them about being waylaid by gangsters and fighting his way out. They believe him, because the gangsters are in the news. They call the police, the newspapers, and soon, Leon is in the news. The next night, driving home, he gives a lift to a couple of men who happen to be..... guess who.

    It's always good to see the beautiful Miss Garvin on the screen, but her talents are wasted here. If you wanted a beautiful woman to cut a man down to size and make the audience laugh, it was Anita. Here, she spends the time being worried.
