The Star Made Me Buy It

 Today's star is Joe E. Brown for Calox Tooth Powder

Basically, he was famous for his ginormous mouth, but he was also pretty funny.  I've seen a bunch of movies featuring the big comedians of the late 1920s/early 30s, and didn't laugh once.  TCM was running one of Brown's movies, and I thought I'd take a look, secure in the knowledge that this was yet another old timey comedian whose humor was bo outdated.  

I forget the title of the movie, but I actually did think it was very funny.  

BTW, when did they get rid of powdered 'dentrifices' ????
