The Naughty Nineties

The Naughty Nineties is a 1945 film starring the comedy team of Abbott and Costello. It is notable for containing perhaps the best recorded rendition of the teams classic Whos on First? routine. This version is shown at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown.

The Captain is plied with alcohol until he is intoxicated and gets involved in a crooked card game where he loses controlling interest in the show boat to Bonita and Crawford. They turn the showboat into a floating gambling casino with every game rigged in their favor. Dexter and Sebastian help the captain regain ownership of his vessel and oust the unwanted criminals.The line, Whos on First?, was ranked No. 91 on American Film Institutes 100 Movie Quotes. The Whos on First? routine was intended to appear much earlier in the film. Costello begins the routine by saying, When we get to St. Louis..., but at this point in the film they are already in St. Louis. The camera crew can be heard laughing in the background during the routine. ........
