 |  | Slapstick for the whole family |  |
Red Skelton is, without a doubt, one of the greatest entertainers of the last century. His simple, charming, often self-effacing humor is something you could show to a young child and not be worried about corrupting influences. His comedy was always clean and fun. That's in short supply these days.
Unfortunately, this is on VHS, so the market supply is limited. I hope they put all of his movies on DVD soon. A comic genius like Red Skelton needs to be introduced to a new generation.
September 21, 2007A very funny movie for the whole family and I'm wondering when it will be available on DVD...also, The Fuller Brush Girl with Lucille Ball...it would be great to have that on DVD,too. Warning: VHS tapes eventually become noisy with static and are a big waste of money.

My brother, sister, and I became big fans of Red Skelton when we found and bought some tapes at the store. My brother and I also remembered Red in some TV specials when we were kids during the 1980's. Someone told us about the movie "The Fuller Brush Man" and how funny it was. We found it here on Amazon. When we watched the movie, we were rolling on the floor. We were laughing so hard. What is really amazing is that the whole movie is clean!! Red Skelton is the best comedian there ever was and ever will be!!! Why don't they still produce this movie? We bought ours brand new not to long ago.
March 26, 2005The Fuller Brush man is a hilarious slapstick comedy about Red Jones, Who just can't seem to keep a steady job. After several failed attempts which all end in comedic disaster, his girlfriend pulls him a plug to sell fuller brushes. The rest is history. Red gets caught up in a murder mystery, chased by police, and locked up in a warehouse, and all he wanted to do was sell fuller brushes. This movie is a gem, though sometimes the dialogue is slightly thin... slapstick, however, with all its grace and beauty, makes up for what the dialogue lacks. I highly recommend it.
February 6, 2003Red Skelton is hilarious, but the movie script is weak. This is a great movie when the viewer just wants to have slapstick and laughs.
