PvP Online has recently been featuring a character who is clearly intended to evoke W. C. Fields, and the latest installment has me struggling with my memory. Which Fields movie is it in which he wears a... bib-thingy (no doubt [livejournal.com profile] pewtergryphon, among others, knows the name for it) which keeps springing loose and slapping him in the face?

Have you ever read "Gaudy Night"? If so, you may remember that Harriet & the Bursar had a running joke about the college's male guests' shirtfronts, centering on the phrase "Hard or soft?" *g*

Mr Field's may not have been celluloid, but it was undoubtably of the "hard" variety.
