Description
I grew up listening to the Lum and Abner Show on radio, and am therefore intimately familiar with the characters. So This Is Washington is a brilliantly made film that accurately represents the grassroots comedy/wisdom angle that Lum Edwards (Chester Lauck) and Abner Peabody (Norris Goff) portrayed so effectively in the radio shows. One may be tempted to believe that this is little more than corn-fed comedy, but it soon becomes evident that there are deep insights hidden in the Sitcom setting. The theme of a fantastic invention that can help the war effort is obviously only a vehicle to showcase the talents of this immortal pair over the unique backdrop of the nation's capital.
As the film progresses, we witness a definite emotional impact on the lives that Lum and Abner touch. The message could well be that we, the driven citizens, tend to make life so complicated that we overlook the most logical solutions to our problems. You will be inspired and entertained by director Ray McCarey's timelessly engaging vintage movie from A2ZCDS.
Customer Reviews:
Old Fashioned Comedy Gold.......2006-07-28
The guy who made this movie also made little rasclals episodes and several Laurel and Hardy movies and it shows. This is an hour of old slapstic humor. Either you get it or you don't. I like this type of thing so I was laughing all night while watching two country idiots trying to make sense of the big city. A barell of laughs.
Babes In The Woods.......2006-05-23
This is a classic story of country bumpkins who have a good idea but need to go the "Big City" in order to get it inot the hands of the right people. Of course, because they don't understand that city at all they make a lot of obvious mistakes that serve as comic fodder and to move the plot along. Like all Hollywood movies of this time there is a happy ending and they are able to get rich while also helping the war effort. There is a lot of silliness, but who needs a serious film all the time?
