Featuring Ted Healy and His Stooges
66.5 min. (Feature Film)
A couple of bungling idiots (Jimmy Durante and Jack Pearl) are abandoned in the deep jungles of Africa by Baron Munchausen. When a rescue team searching for the lost Baron stumble across the pair, they mistake Pearl for the missing Baron, and take the two of them back to America where they receive a hero's welcome. The phony Baron is invited to speak at Cuddle College, where he finds a love interest in Zasu Pitts, meets three crazy janitors, and faces exposure as a fraud!
