6 Best Leon Errol Movies

By Vlad Zakh · July 21, 2026

Comedy feel good

Leon Errol brought a rubber-legged, tipsy comic energy honed on the vaudeville stage to Hollywood, becoming one of the era’s most reliable slapstick character actors. In Never Give a Sucker an Even Break (1941): A hapless screenwriter pitches an increasingly absurd film plot to a skeptical studio executive. Just as strong is The Noose Hangs High (1948): Two bumbling window washers accidentally end up with a bag of stolen mob money.
