TITLE: Li'l Abner ...(Not the Musical)
GENRE: Comedy, B&W Comic based (1940)
CAST: Everyone from The Three Stooges, Abbott and Costello, Buster Keaton and Laurel and Hardy crowd (The only one of those names actually in this is Keaton but the supporting cast is common)
PLOT: Li'l Abner thinks he's going to die by next day so, what the hey, he betroths to Daisy Mae and Wildcat Wendy, Doesn't die and the matter is to be settled in the Sadie Hawkins Day Chase (more Max Senate type
everyone running in all directions, now we know where Benny Hill found his inspiration).
RETURN ON INVESTMENT: 6 of 10 because the costumes and make-up are straight from the Al Capp panels. The back woods language to be studied is enough for many. The title song "Li'l Abner" was co-written by Milton Berle! It goes, Li'l Abner, Li'l Abner, Woo Hoo, Li'l Abner, Li'l Abner, Woo Hoo...
DVD BONUS: None and though labeled digitally remastered, there are the scratches and spider leg bits still left to see. In a cardboard envelope. But there's insight to be gained to the morality and attitudes of pre-WWII America with short skirts, cleavage and inuendo all over the place. Sadie Hawkins Day wasn't about finding a husband, it was about finding a man for... cuddle reasons.
