Beside this being one of my favorite “laugh ‘til you choke” films, I marvel at the stunts. Many were so dangerous, I don’t care how many mirrors they used, this was legitimate action. When the tractor comes to a quick stop, many times I think, “They probably broke their backs!” That tractor was amazing. One of my non-action spots was when the salesman from Earthworm Tractors drank the shoe polish thinking it was liquor. Then Jackson remarks about how that was the finest whisky he ever drank.
It's too bad that none of his three baseball 'trilogy' are available, nor are the truly wonderful films from between 1930-34. I guess WB is holding out for all those who love good old humor. Thanks for this one!
Just think of all the fun and games they must have had making this explosive movie. Not so much a laugh a minute, more of a bang a minute. And a loud bang at that!
Joe Brown was the FIRST to take USO shows on tour, into the Pacific War Theater. It was BEFORE Bob Hope ever did it, and Joe did it all out of his own pocket, and paid for all the transportation and food and lodging for everyone on the USO tour, since the USO never got any government funding, and had no money to do the tour with. Entertainers who went along donated their services for his shows. Hope was sponsored by the movie studios he was affiliated with, so it never cost Hope any money out of his own pocket.
I was so tense my wife could've used me as an ironing board by the first 30 minute mark. I love these films and they make me terribly tense. I can't just stop watching!!!
Takes a great salesman to sell that first product. Try houses. Try insurance. Try cars. Try unbilt and repairs on bridges. Try construction of any sort. Just make sure you can have the men that can do the job. And the materials to do so.
They were used in world war I also. That's the war he was talking about. They were used to move artillery. Google caterpillar in world war I, it said they sold over 5,000 tractors to the war effort by 1918.
Stars: Joe E. Brown, June Travis, Guy Kibbee Alexander Botts is a self-described natural born salesman and master mechanic, who is trying to make a big sale of Earthworm tractors to grouchy lumberman Johnson.
Best copy on YT! Joe E. Brown is quite the cutup in this movie, thanks for posting & sharing this.
These are movies that the Elderly would really enjoy. Utube 1930 movies. Real entertainment. Greatest movies.
And younger people
Heck of a demonstration.

Love the tractor and all the special effects.

I'm so glad to see this movie again. Hilarious!
I love these crazy funny movies. Wallis and the King. 😂
The manic action of the tractors running over everything is hilarious but couldn't be done today

Best print online of this video. Thanks!
Love it! So funny. Innocent hilarity. But this was before those big tractor treads came to be associated with WWII.

what a great super goofy move... Hilarious...

6:47 He mistakes the typewriter end-of-carriage bell for the telephone and gets up to answer it. Ha!

Scene From I Love Cat Machines Part 1.
I wonder if Sally's father and Emmet ever got around to eating a piece of Ma Blair's pie.
The resolution version of this film on youtube. !
Maintain your predicament!
I guess bulldozers were called tractors in those days
The official term for bulldozer is track type tractor
Plus the blade makes a difference

Does anyone know what that Monster tractor was? Earthworm Tractors is a great name but they don't exist.
I believe it was, Caterpillar.
Nearer did. Mayberry USA. Movies are just entertaining. Gay puree Judy Garland cartoon is just fiction. Someone's creativity. Enjoy anyway
Joe E Brown was so awesome in Some Like it Hot.
Dakert, did you like the movie? Well yes and no ha ha
