Charley's Aunt

Based on the play by Brandon Thomas, this hilarious farce stars Jack Benny as Fancourt "Babbs" Babberley, an Oxford undergrad who agrees to help his friends circumnavigate a strict university dating rule by acting as their chaperone. There's just one catch: He'll have to pose as one of his mates’ old maiden auntie to do so. Now, Babbs learns just how much of a drag cross-dressing can be. Kay Francis, James Ellison, Edmund Gwenn, Laird Cregar, Richard Haydn, Arleen Whelan co-star. AKA: "Charley's American Aunt." 82 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; audio commentary; featurette; photo gallery.
