Featured review
From 1930 to 1932, Robert Ripley starred in eleven shorts for Warner Brothers. Each one was very similar...consisting of Ripley doing some drawings and showing some film footage as he tells tales of interesting people and places...some of which are actually true!
This one consists of a story about a guy who balances on one leg, a group of people who are pot-heads, a church made of hay, a baseball team consisting of brothers, some mountain folks who are self-reliant and who are talked about in a patronizing manner, a woman CLAIMING to be 128, odd cemetery markers as well as a four-legged duck.
For the most part, these weird and wild things and people aren't particularly weird nor wild. One of the more underwhelming installments of the franchise.
