GodzillaFan54 ◊ 2025-11-25 01:31	1932 sports comedy starring comedian Joe E. Brown as a fireman who wants to join the nearby college baseball team and make it big in both fields. Joe E. Brown was a huge baseball fan and played the game extensively in his younger years, being a member of numerous semi-pro teams. He actually got a lucrative offer in 1911 to join the Boston Red Sox when he was 19 but turned it down because at the same time he had an offer to join a burlesque show (vaudeville for adults rather than families) and took it, reasoning that acting had a bigger chance of a long-term career than baseball. Joe E. Brown himself was pretty much the 1930s Jim Carrey; a rubber-faced comedian who starred in a series of hit comedies featuring plenty of exaggerated facial expressions and physical comedy. Barring the imaginary one listed above, all fire-fighting apparatuses used in this movie are horse-drawn fire carriages. Were these really still used this far into the 20th century? One of three baseball comedies Brown was in between 1932 and 1935. Remade in 1954.
