26 de dez. de 2018 · When McGargle finds out Poppy is the same age as the vanished heiress to a fortune, he forges a document so they can live the high life. Produced through Paramount at a time when Fields’ popularity with moviegoers, thanks to roles in hits like David Copperfield , was at an all-time high, this was directed by his drinking buddy, A Edward Sutherland.
Synopsis by Hal Erickson. Poppy is the film version of the Dorothy Donnelly musical comedy which made W.C. Fields a Broadway star back in 1923 (an earlier, less-faithful version, also starring Fields and retitled Sally of the Sawdust, was directed by D. W. Griffith in 1926).
