Better Behave(en)

Physical comedy drives this vehicle for then-famous clown Poodles Hanneford, part of a legendary British circus family.

While "Poodles" never quite parlayed his big-top celebrity into screen stardom, he occasionally appeared in movies as late as circus-themed Hollywood spectacular BILLY ROSE'S JUMBO. He passed away five years later in the Catskills, no doubt surrounded by a diehard old-school showbiz community to the end.
