W.C. Fields stars as Egbert Souse, an unemployed, henpecked drunk who spends most of his time at the Black Pussy Cat Café.But things take a turn for the absurd when Souse inadvertently captures a bank robber and is rewarded with a job as a security guard.Written by Fields under the pseudonym Mahatma Kane Jeeves and featuring one of his most hilarious performances, The Bank Dick is an undisputed classic of American comedy.Criterion is proud to present Fields' last major film in a new digital transfer, with English subtitles for the deaf and hearing impaired.
