Animal Crackers is a farce-comedy film from 1930. It is filled with slapstick comedy, musical numbers, and classic scenes that have become iconic in the genre. The story revolves around a party where a painting gets stolen and a group of characters embark on a hilarious whodunit adventure to find the thief. The film is presented in black and white and captures the essence of pre-code era Hollywood. With its catchy songs, talented musicians, and witty dialogue, Animal Crackers is a timeless gem of a movie.

Physical comedy drives this vehicle for then-famous clown Poodles Hanneford, part of a legendary British circus family. Already pushing forty but impeccably nimble, he plays suitor to beauteous, heavily daddy-guarded Betty (Betty Walsh) and the duo try their hardest to elope. This is an essentially plotless series of gags but they're good ones, well above the producing Weiss Brothers' average at the time. While "Poodles" never quite parlayed his big-top celebrity into screen stardom, he occasionally appeared in movies as late as circus-themed Hollywood spectacular BILLY ROSE'S JUMBO. He passed away five years later in the Catskills, no doubt surrounded by a diehard old-school showbiz community to the end.
