Strictly Business / The Ransom of Red Chief (English subtitles) (1/5).
The film has three parts, each of them a screen version of "The Roads We Take", "Makes the Whole World Kin" and "The Ransom of Red Chief" by O.Henry. The film has an all-star cast. Though the film is black-and-white, it doesn't spoil the film any. Side-splitting and a real pleasure to watch the actors play.

Если можете сделать лучше - сделайте! Языком все молоть горазды - хлебом не корми, а вот что касаемо дела... Тут сразу же начинаются проблемы...

I remember watching a different film version of this short story in school. It was in color and with American actors. (However it was NOT the one with Christopher Loyd playing Sam.) And unfortunetly, I can't find it anywhere on youtube.
