The year was 1930, the first time the routine off ‘‘The Golf Specialist’’ would be filmed with sound. It was the first time Fields himself would be heard on film. This short is important because, owing to the
primitive way it was filmed, with phony sound stages standing in for a golf course, a camera shooting the routine straight on from one angle, we get an excellent facsimile of what Fields was like on stage.. The routine is very funny, one of the best Fields ever created.
