Comedian, Commentator, Icon, Star!
Will Rogers was all of these things and more to America in the '20s and '30s, and his political jabs and witty one-liners are still quoted – and still timely – today! Collected within are some of Rogers' most beloved performances _ from the newspaper columnist role he seemed born to play in life and on screen, to a riverboat captain in his final screen collaboration with the equally legendary director John Ford. Get reacquainted with the hands-down funniest character of his time... now immortalized on DVD for all time!
