ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET CAPTAIN KIDD (1952) Warner Bros. Release Date: December 27, 1952 Runtime: 70 minutes Director: Charles Lamont Producer: Alex Gottlieb Writing Credits: Howard Dimsdale John Grant Cast: Bud Abbott....Rocky Stonebridge Lou Costello....Oliver 'Puddin' Head' Johnson Charles Laughton....Capt. William Kidd Hillary Brooke....Captain Bonney Fran Warren....Lady Jane Bill Shirley....Bruce Martingale Leif Erickson....Morgan Syd Saylor....Waiter at Pub (uncredited) Rex Lease....Waiter at Pub with Black Eye (uncredited) Plot Summary: Though out of favor with many Abbott and Costello buffs, "ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET CAPTAIN KIDD" is actually a lot of fun, so long as the viewer parks logic and dignity at the door. Captain Kidd is played by no less than Charles Laughton, who reportedly agreed to sign up for this film because he wanted to learn how to perform a comedy double-take. Bud Abbott and Lou Costello are cast as Rocky and Puddin' Head, waiters at a pirate hangout on the island of Tortuga. Entrusted with a love letter written by the beautiful Lady Jane to cabaret singer Bruce Martingale, Puddin' Head manages to get this missive mixed up with a treasure map coveted by both Captain Kidd and his rival, lady pirate Captain Bonney. The upshot of all this finds Rocky, Puddin'Head, Lady Jane, and Bruce being shanghaied by Kidd, setting the stage for a climactic treasure hunt and chase on a faraway island. Laughton takes to broad slapstick comedy like a fish to water; indeed, at times he's a lot funnier than Bud and Lou! Filmed in Cinecolor, "ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET CAPTAIN KIDD" was the second of the team's independent productions for Warner Bros. release; like the first, "JACK AND THE BEANSTALK" (1952), it was well recieved by the public.
