Fancy Aquaplaning by Joe E. Brown In Latest Hit

Joe E. Brovm does some plain and fancy aquaplane stunts in his latest comedy hit, “You Said a Mouthful,” the First National picture which Is booked for the Kosy next Wednesday. In this he is aided and abetted by Preston S. Foster, both of whom axe adepts with the seaplanes in which they are hauled over the rough waters of the Pacific, at Catalina Island, at a terrific speed.

Joe, playing the part of an artless youth, is induced to step on the board through a misapprehension, but manages to stiielc on by luck and finally topples into the water through sheer awkwardness.

Joe’s ungainliness is simulated for picture purposes, and when he plunges into the water, it is really his skilled diving that makes it appear to bo a funny accident.

The story of William B. Dover is filled with uproarious situations in which Joe wins a marathon race although he has never swum before. Many new an dnovel comedy gags have been injected by Robert Lord and Bolton Mallory, who wrote the screen play. Ginger Rogers, Sheila Terry, Farina, of “Our Gang” comedies, Guinn Williams and Harry Griibbon are among those in the supporting cast. The picture was directed by Lloyd Bacon,
