Happy 120th, Robert Benchley!

One of my writer heroes, Robert Benchley, would have been 120 today. Here he is in one of his informational shorts, "How To Be A Detective" (1936), IMDB.

And here he is re-enacting the skit that launched his career in acting and the movies, "The Treasurer's Report" (1928), IMDB.
