Do Someone a Favor (1954)
*** (out of 4)
Pete Smith short has Dave O'Brien playing a nice guy who is constantly doing people favors but then getting a bad deal. He babysits the neighbors large dog, which causes the house to get wrecked, which sends his wife away to her mothers. Things only get worst when a sexy blonde shows up at his door with car trouble. This is one of the better Smith shorts out there as this one features constant laughs from start to finish. The highlight is certainly the ending where O'Brien ends up sleeping in the garage with the dog who climbs on top of here where, of course, more trouble happens. Smith's narration is very good throughout, which is another plus.
