One of the greatest comedic performances
It's such a shame John Barrymore wasn't recognized by the Academy in 1934 with his performance in Twentieth Century. He was such a riot as Oscar Jaffe. It wasn’t necessary for him to speak at all. His body movements spoke for themselves. The way he staggers as if he's been hit in the stomach just as his eyes bug out. It’s hilarious.
