The inimitable Mae West (Klondike Annie) portrays the voluptuous Flower Belle Lee, whose reputation is tarnished when she is seen embracing a masked bandit in her bedroom. Forced to leave town until she can prove she is respectable—and married—Flower Belle boards a train where she meets the incorrigible Cuthbert J. Twillie (W.C. Fields, Running Wild). Believing he’s quite a catch, Flower Belle accepts Twillie’s marriage proposal. The newlyweds stop in the town of Greasewood where Twillie’s exaggerated tales of adventure earn him the honor of becoming the sheriff of the town and bartender at “The Last Gasp” saloon. My Little Chickadee was written by its legendary stars Mae West and W.C. Fields, with wonderful direction by Edward F. Cline (Never Give a Sucker an Even Break).
