PUNQ

Rated 21 Sep 2018

The end of folksy Will Rogers. The film released after his untimely death, it's another fine piece of humble pie Rogers was known for. What made it extra special was bringing in Bill "Bojangles" Robinson as his sidekick, teaching the white man how to move his feet! This also gave Rogers a blackface, but for me that only adds to the charm. Especially when he has to pretend to be Bojangles to get out of trouble. The Highlight for me. That, and Charles Sellon as a crazy old man with a shotgun!
