You Can't Cheat an Honest Man

1939 76 min ⭐ 7.0 Comedy

You Can't Cheat an Honest Man is one of the most talked-about Comedy movies released in 1939, attracting audiences with its cinematic storytelling and memorable performances.

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.
