| In Jitterbugs, Stan and Ollie,
stars of the Zoot Suit Band, encounter a scam artist who allegedly
can turn water into gasoline with an invented pill. Together,
the three men swindle their ways into absurd situations, culminating
in hilarious scenes of Stan disguised as a wealthy elderly
lady who at one point declares, to a bunch of gangsters, that
she's feeling "quite gay." Clever double-entendres,
subtle wordplay, and co-star Vivian Blaine make this film
wonderful. And yes there is a lengthy Jitterbug dance scene. |
