Cowardly Elmer Finch is browbeaten by his wife, daughter, fat son and the family dog. After hypnosis he is domineering. He enters a contract with a fifteen-thousand dollar payoff, so his courage can last beyond the hypnosis.
Elmer Finch (W.C.Fields) is a good man, married for the second time and working for twenty years in a company as accountant. However, he is not respected by his wife and his stepson and even by his dog. In his work, his boss and colleagues spend an abusive treatment, and clients do not respect him either. His life changes when he is accidentally hypnotized and transformed in a lion, changing his attitude.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
