Mesterværket Øllet blev hans skæbne – The Fatal Glass of Beer. En af verdenshistoriens særeste kortfilm – for mange 20 minutters spild af tid – for os, der elsker den, noget nær det største stykke filmkunst, man kan forestille sig. For komikeren W.C.Fields var det en af de film, der var tæt på at ødelægge hans karriere. En lille stribe kortfilm fra 1930-33, hvoraf denne var så svært tilgengængelig og udenfor nummer, at hans ry som entertainer var i fare. W.C.Fields figur (i alle filmene) er fordrukken, klodset, doven, selvoptaget, ond i sulet og forhadt. Men samtidig elskelig, ynkelig, ærlig – og et billede på det svage menneske i en uforstående og latterlig civilisation. Kombineret med en udsøgt komisk timing og sans for detaljer var det en figur, der gav mening for mange. Og husk: It ain’t a fit night out for man nor beast!”
