Toronto Film Society The Film Buffet October 6, 2008

Toronto Film Society opening night programme for the ultimate film buff. The one and only W.C.Fields in the pre-code Tillie and Gus. Missionaries Augustus Q Winterbottom and wife having suddenly left Alaska at the bequest of the constabulary find themselves in a bit of a poker game with other card sharks. Luckily they have their smart pet duck and thorn-in-the-side Baby LeRoy to help them out. Find out Fields answer to the burning question-Do you like children?
Charley's Aunt 1941 with Jack Benny. Fancourt Babberly becomes a better woman when he is blackmailed into drag to become the aunt from Brazil (where the nuts come from). Can he fend off the advances of crusty Spettugue and creaky Chesney before he is outed?
