The Essentials
| WHO: | WHAT: |
|---|---|
| Jimmy Graham | Enormously charming domestic comedy with Gracie Fields and Monty Woolley at irresistible best. Fine & funny performances from all. Look for a pre-Gilligan Natalie Schafer for added perks! |
| WHY: | |
| Our hero at his adolescent finest. Sweet, funny -- altogether a winner. His Woolley imitation is NOT to be missed! (you've been warned...) | |
