Description
For twenty years, Hoosier comic Red Skelton entertained millions of viewers who gathered around their television sets. Noted film historian Wes Gehring examines the man behind the famous characters - someone who never let the facts get in the way of a good story. Gehring delves into Skelton's hardscrabble life with a shockingly dysfunctional family, his days on the road on the vaudeville circuit, the comedian's early success on radio, his up-and-down movie career with MGM and his sometimes tragic personal life.
