About Tillie and Gus
Tillie and Augustus Winterbottom are thought to be missionaries when they arrive to find Phineas Pratt trying cheat the Sheridans out of her father's inheritance, including a ferry franchise and a boat. The only way to keep the franchise is to win a race against Pratt's boat.
Directed by Francis Martin, Tillie and Gus leans on a strong ensemble — W.C. Fields, Alison Skipworth, Baby LeRoy — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1933.
