Audience Member A clever & snappy Family Comedy staring WC Fields as a father that needs to stand up for himself at home & his work environment. Accidentally stumbling into a Hypnotist Show he becomes hypnotized & believes he is a lion & starts standing up for himself & then some. A fun easy going comedy from Paramount that is light achievement but quite entertaining & has a nice pace. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
