Polo Joe is a 1936 American comedy film directed by William C. McGann and starring Joe E. Brown, Carol Hughes and Richard 'Skeets' Gallagher.[1]
It was Brown's final film for Warner Brothers before he left the studio to make films for producer David L. Loew. This move did serious damage to his career.
