This is a film you can't go wrong with. MGM compiled a salute to the comedy that MGM brought to the big screen over a 40 year period. You'll see its biggest
stars performing and they did boast they had more stars than there are in heaven.
Some were admittedly shoehorned in. Case in point Charlie Chaplin who had his own United Artists at the time. He makes a guest appearance in a Marion Davies film.
Or WC Fields who toiled for Paramount and Universal. He did one memorable Mr. Micawber in David Copperfield.
The comedians share equally with MGM stars of drama in some of their comedies. Case in point Clark Gable in Too Hot To Handle and Spencer Tracy in Libeled Lady. And of course William Powell and Myrna Loy.
You can't go wrong with The Big Parade Of Comedy.
