'It's a Gift': W.C. Fields and Mr. Muckle

I could not believe my eyes the first time I viewed the grocery store sequence from one of the quintessential W.C. Fields comedies, "It's a Gift" (1934). I found Fields and this material to be fearlessly funny, while breathtaking in that the piece actually made it to the screen.

Order up some kumquats and watch out for Mr. Muckle....
