The Court Jester Hubert Hawkins (Danny Kaye) Costume
The pellet with the poison's in the flagon with the dragon, the vessel with the pestle has the brew that is true! Whole generations recite that "code" to each other and right away break out in delightful laughter. For the recognize it as the iconic tongue twister from the truly beloved Danny Kaye's greatest feature, "The Court Jester" (1955). A film that so many writers and directors of "royal crown and country" comedies owe their allegiance, especially "The Princess Bride", it is considered also to be one of the most prefect American comedies. This is one of Danny Kaye's hero screen worn outfits. This "Robin Hood" style over-jacket, part of the "Fox's" loyal brigade, is made in green suede with inlaid diamond metal amulets and a leather collar. The official "Western Costume" label is inside with "Danny Kaye" typed in along with the production number. A wonderful collectable for those who not only can recite the code correctly but understand all about purple pimpernel birthmarks, and how to change a King's diapers!
