WC Fields - The Best Of WC Fields

wortwart

Review by Herbert Braun

The Best Of WC Fields is a compilation album featuring the best works of the legendary comedian WC Fields. The album is a delight for fans of classic comedy and showcases his unique style and wit.

The album features some of his most famous routines, including "The Dentist" and "The Golf Specialist," which are timeless classics that still resonate with audiences today. Fields' trademark sarcasm and dry humor are on full display throughout the album, and his impeccable timing and delivery are a testament to his status as a true master of the craft.

The album also features some lesser-known gems, such as "The Fatal Glass of Beer" and "The Pharmacist," which are just as hilarious and entertaining as his more famous routines. The album is a must-have for fans of vintage comedy, and it is a perfect introduction to the work of one of the greatest comedians of all time.

Comments

"I smell feathers burning......are you smoking an Owl?"............
One reason people like Mae West, the Marx Brothers, Jack Benny, and WC Fields are so good Is the long, hard training they got in vaudeville.
Benny Hills impression of Fields was so good it was like a tribute.
Had to dislike video too many f_cking ads a_shole!
Fields selling “snake oil “. A man complains when WC takes his $5.00 bill and doesn’t give him change. Man says “ I gave you a $5.00 bill. (Several times). WC says Oh! I catch on , the gentleman wishes 5 bottles, man says “no I don’t want 5 bottles “. WC interrupts him, No More!
Sooo funny.
As of Nov. 17,2021, 182 people gave this vid the thumbs down. That means 182 people so far have no idea what real comedy is. Feel sorry for them.
Timeless comedy gold. I first saw these a long time ago when I was 10'ish and they were funny as hell. Like cartoons, I really didn't get all the true gags until I got older. This stuff is even funnier/more delightful to me in 2021.
180 nitwits
Only watched the first 12 minutes and only knew W. C. Fields by name, so it's probably not enough to make myself an idea of this man's talent. But so far, I haven't laughed or even smiled. I find Charlie Chapman's jokes much funnier and timeless. This seems really outdated humor to me but... I guess it's an acquired taste. Or maybe I'm not in the mood. It's always interesting to hear their pronunciation and intonation though...
The worst comedy of all time. What a bunch of pure junk.
When I watch this, I like to think that the actors and the actresses were having a good time making the movie.
"Wheres my ball?"
Lol,he sells a stamp and gives the guy a big vase,then two women go to the rest room n he gives both of them a vase.that is so funny.
Astounding what they got away with in these pre-code pictures-- the tooth-pulling bit is so clearly a sexual gag!
Godfrey Daniels! A few funny 50 yo WC memories.
Ah yes, Drink...one of the greatest pleasures in life. CHEAP...
it cost me $5 a gallon! On our excursion to Afghanistan
we lost our corkscrew, we had to go for days, on food and water.
I bought a wonderful club in Toronto, yeah, a Canadian Club.
The Duchess and I sat up til 4 o'clock, and drank 3 quarts of rye.
I spent half my money on gambling, alcohol and wild women, the other
half I wasted. Why do you drink so much...cause I like it.

WC is even funnier, if you slow the playback speed to about 85%. :)
Conans funnier
Fields always had beautiful women in his movies
Here because of Conan...
I'll bet there are tons of students who know enough about technology that can make the vintage WC Fields portions sound as crisp and clear as the commercials do.
I’ve been a great fan of WC Fields everything I’ve read about From other people I already knew but nobody has said yet and the early 70s he did the commercials for Fritos as WC Fritos and then the Frito six packs they would have a pencil eraser inside and they came in about seven different colors
