Fun Short with Ruth
Slide, Babe, Slide (1932)
*** (out of 4)
Babe Ruth is on a train and when it comes to a stop he notices a group of kids playing baseball. He decides to go over and teach them a thing but they don't believe that he's really Babe Ruth. For the most part this here is a highly entertaining short, although it's hard to believe that these kids wouldn't know who Ruth was. With that said, this was a fun short because it actually did a good job at showing off Ruth's child-like nature and I thought he was quite good here. He certainly kept you interested in what was going on and there's no doubt that he managed to be charming with the kids. This here was basically set up like an Our Gang short but of course the main draw was Ruth giving pointers.
