You Said A Mouthful

Opening the First National-Vitaphone Joe E. Brown vehicle, we meet the star as a nerdy swimsuit factory employee, Harry Gribbon and Sheila Terry as colleagues in charge of playing tricks on him, Lloyd Bacon directing, in You Said A Mouthful, 1932, also starring Ginger Rogers.

Joe E. Brown as Joe Holt, in L-A from Iowa, come for his $1-million inheritance and having found out all he got was a servant?s son (Farina), they?re about to take jobs on Catalina Island when Ginger Rogers, age 21, mistakes him for we-don?t-know-who, Guinn Williams the real guy, in You Said A Mouthful, 1932.

Nearing the end, Joe E. Brown, a nerd non-swimmer, mistaken for a Canadian champ, thinking he’s wearing the unsinkable swimsuit he invented, with sidekick Farina, desperate to impress Ginger Rogers as heiress Alice, getting ready for the big race from Catalina Island, Preston Foster his rival Ed, in You Said A Mouthful, 1932.

To sell his unsinkable bathing suit, Joe E. Brown must pass himself off as a championship swimmer in You Said A Mouthful (1932).
