Description
Jenny Hagen is a diner waitress who fantasizes about a life on stage. Her heart belongs to Orme Wilson, an expert pancake flipper, who only has eyes for the women in movie magazines. When a river showboat comes to town, its star performer Lillian Lyons entrances him. Inflamed with jealousy, Jenny is determined to get on stage herself, by any means necessary.

Description
It's an uproarious silent comedy in which the inimitable W.C. Fields finds it impossible to get some sleep. It was the fourth film in which Fields appeared, but the first over which he had some control, as it was adapted from his own stage play. Elmer Prettywillie is a druggist kept awake by clamorous garbage collectors, a nosy woman seeking a two-cent stamp, bogus land deals, and phony fortunes.
