In The Day the Laughter Stopped, he uncovers the incredible true story behind the Roscoe Fatty Arbuckle scandal of 1921, when the fat film comedian stood accused of the rape and murder of a pretty screen actress.
Arbuckle’s is the story of a man born in extreme poverty who was destined to rise to the heights of a multi-million dollar career, only to have it snatched from him by a wave of hysteria and bigotry that swept the globe.
