The Private Diary of Mike Durrett


A Durrett Family Christmas Album: Banker's Holiday

A Durrett Family Christmas Album: Banker's Holiday. Mike receives W.C. Fields' The Bank Dick on DVD

How cool is this? My favorite comedy movie, "The Bank Dick" (1940), on a Criterion Collection DVD.

Ironically, it was on this very Christmas Day, 1969, I crammed into a sold-out theatre to view "The Bank Dick" for the first time. My discovery was electric and that experience continues to zap around inside me.

The star and creative marvel is W.C. Fields, who, in a further irony, passed away on this very Christmas Day, 1946.
