 Red Skelton at his best Sep 13, 2009
"The Fuller Brush Man" was one of the best movies starring Red Skelton. This movie along with "A Southern Yankee" and others helped propel Red Skelton to the top of my list of all-time favorite comedians. If you enjoy comedies, take the time to watch this movie.
 Poor Red; What Abuse He Takes! May 22, 2009
Wow, this movie wore me out. It was almost non-stop slapstick action....actually too much; it could have used some lulls. Still, there were tons of funny moments.
Red Skeleton, in the starring role, provides most of the laughs with some corny-but-great lines and wonderful slapstick sight gags. Red, himself, must have been exhausted making this film.
My favorite parts were in the beginning when he gives door-to-door selling a chance. His mentor and nemesis "Keenan" (Don McGuire), sets him up with the worst houses on the block and poor Red takes a verbal and physical beating, even from a little kid! It's actually painful to see such a nice guy, such an Innocent human being, get treated so poorly by everyone. He can't catch a break, including making points with his wannabe girlfriend "Ann" (Janet Blair).
****possible spoilers**** The break comes, of course, at the end and after a lot of chaos when Red inadvertently becomes involved in a murder and has to clear his name. You know Red, somehow, is going to pull through a ton of messy situations, even though it looks bad for him at least a hundred times!
This film, and "The Fuller Brush Girl" with Lucille Ball and Eddie Albert, have never been put on DVDs and that's a shame. It would make a nice double-feature disc.
Slapstick for the whole family Sep 21, 2007
Red Skelton is, without a doubt, one of the greatest entertainers of the last century. His simple, charming, often self-effacing humor is something you could show to a young child and not be worried about corrupting influences. His comedy was always clean and fun. That's in short supply these days.
Unfortunately, this is on VHS, so the market supply is limited. I hope they put all of his movies on DVD soon. A comic genius like Red Skelton needs to be introduced to a new generation.
Shoud Be On DVD Jun 10, 2006
A very funny movie for the whole family and I'm wondering when it will be available on DVD...also, The Fuller Brush Girl with Lucille Ball...it would be great to have that on DVD,too. Warning: VHS tapes eventually become noisy with static and are a big waste of money.

The funniest movie I have ever seen! Mar 26, 2005
My brother, sister, and I became big fans of Red Skelton when we found and bought some tapes at the store. My brother and I also remembered Red in some TV specials when we were kids during the 1980's. Someone told us about the movie "The Fuller Brush Man" and how funny it was. We found it here on Amazon. When we watched the movie, we were rolling on the floor. We were laughing so hard. What is really amazing is that the whole movie is clean!! Red Skelton is the best comedian there ever was and ever will be!!! Why don't they still produce this movie? We bought ours brand new not to long ago.
