This could have been really fun, and I think it was probably an amusing script, but
All the King;s Horses is very oddly directed. Carl Brisson and Mary Ellis are both in excellent voice, but Edward Everett Horton is given nothing to do - and he doesn't even interact onscreen with Eugene Pallette. Clearly the director didn't have good musical comedy as a priority. As for the title of this film, I have no idea why it is called this.
All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put Humpty together again, right? There are no horses in this film. Is something not able to be put back together? I don't get it.
