In the 1920s, three morbidly obese men starred in a series of short films. They were billed as either 'Ton of Fun' or 'The Three Fattys'....either way, these weren't exactly politically correct shorts. In fact, they also were mostly unfunny. "Standing Pat" is a bit better than most, as at least it offers a few laughs here and there.
When the film begins, two of the trio are selling miracle cleaning products on the street corner. And, if a perspective client doesn't buy, they arrange for the third to drive by an splash mud all over them! It's a bit funny...as if how this cleaning solution works, as it burns away the dirt!
Oddly, the cleaning products business is owned by a guy who also runs an antique AND piano store...an odd combination. He asks these three idiots to deliver a piano...with pretty much expected results.
I am no huge fan of "Standing Pat" but at least it has energy and tries to be funny. Worth seeing...though hardly a must-see.
