Laugh and Get Rich

1931
Comedy
1h 12m
This Depression-era comedy takes place in the boarding house run by the indomitable Sarah Austin (Edna May Oliver). Sarah's indigent husband Joe (Hugh Herbert), spends most of his time cooking up pie-in-the-sky get-rich-quick schemes, few of which come to fruition. In time-honored "domestic comedy" tradition, one of Joe's wacky inventions is purchased by a major manufacturer, saving the household from bankruptcy. (allmovie.com)

Character actors Edna May Oliver & Hugh Herbert share the top billing! If you already are familiar with these two you probable think you know what you're getting. But this is different to what I expected. Less polished then how their personas would develop through the 30s. Herbert not so giggly. And Oliver not so funny. The acting is a casualty of the early sound days. They added melodrama to this comedy! Have you ever seen Herbert do melodrama? Now understand why he was only a supporting actor.
