 Rating:  - Great Movie!First off, a hearty hello to Mr Kringle below who has also reviewed this movie, greetings from Wisconsin to my longtime friend! On to the movie...This is another one of those great, rarely seen WC Fields movies that is simply a blast to watch, the criteria of arm wrestling to try and win Fields political position from him is always a hoot to watch.

The film's plot is so insane that it makes most screwball comedies of the period look tame by comparison: the country of Klopstockia (whose president is WC Fields, and whose citizenry is mostly descended from goats) decides to enter the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics, and sends its greatest athlete (Jack Oakie). The jokes are so insane and fast you can barely keep up--it's like getting a Marx brothers movie ...
