The Barber Shop (1933)

Another W.C. Fields comedy short as he drawls his way through being a rather inept barber. To be honest he doesn't do anything right, even throwing a baseball seems to end up in mayhem. Barber O'Hair is the character's name (of course) and has a pretty sad life, his wife is a vegetarian and he never gets any meat. He does enjoy sitting outside of his shop all day and chasing away dogs. Not the funniest W.C. Fields short but a decent and charming performance as always.
