Sheik to Sheik

About This Movie

So, 'Sheik to Sheik' is this quirky little comedy from '36 directed by Roy Mack. The plot twists around this radio salesman who gets knocked out by a golf ball and, in a fit of whimsy, dreams he's in the desert selling radios to sheiks. The atmosphere is light-hearted and kind of surreal, you know? The pacing really plays into the comedic elements, with some delightful musical numbers sprinkled throughout. The performances feel genuine, with the lead really leaning into that goofy charm. It’s the sort of film that doesn’t take itself too seriously, yet manages to reflect on the absurdity of consumerism in a light way. And those practical effects—they add a certain charm that’s hard to replicate in today’s CGI world.
