You Can't Cheat an Honest Man (1939)

Overview: Fields plays "Larsen E. Whipsnade", the owner of a shady carnival that is constantly on the run from the law. Whipsnade is struggling to keep a step ahead of foreclosure, and clearly not paying his performers, including Bergen and McCarthy, who try to coax money out of him, or in McCarthy's case, steal some outright.

Starring: W.C. Fields, Edgar Bergen, Eddie 'Rochester' Anderson, Constance Moore
