About this product

Product Information

Jackie Gleason is U.S. Bates, the wealthy owner of a department store. When his bratty young son Eric (Scott Schwartz, A CHRISTMAS STORY) makes one of his annual visits, Bates offers the boy the gift of anything he wants in the store. When Jack Brown (Richard Pryor), an out-of-work journalist working as the store's janitor, makes Eric laugh with his antics, the boy chooses the Brown as his gift. Brown suffers through many indignities and embarrassments in his new position, but eventually teaches the selfish child what it means to have a true friend.

Great title and the picture basically sums up the movie. You need to see it to fully understand
It's a good old fashion comedy. With two great comedian stars. Sn that just about rounds out the movies I need to get to replace ones I have on vhs now on dvd.

NICE DVD BUT ADVERTISING WAS POOR
Great movie watched it years ago and loved it. The only thing that could’ve been better was the online it was listed and graded as if it was a book and not a DVD and I could not get any information on it from Thriftbooks that were selling it so I had to take a chance. The product is very nice, but the advertising for it could’ve been much better.

funny movie
I enjoyed this movie as a kid when it first came out and wanted to see it again. The quality of the picture isn't sharp or bright enough though. kind of a bummer.
