Contrary to the majority of the reviews which currently appear now and take a condescending view of this film, this reviewer believes "The Rogues' Tavern" is an entertaining little film. Wallace Ford and Barbara Pepper perform very well in the leading roles. One reviewer remarks "that guy who plays Bert at the hotel is about the worst actor I've ever seen." Granted, Vincent Dennis, who plays the role, is not very good, but then in another review of "The Amazing Exploits of the Clutching Hand," Jack Mulhall was singled out as a "terrible actor," and he is in this film, yet emerges seemingly unscathed. A reviewer also writes "by the way, Barbara Pepper later came to fame playing Mrs. Zipfel on "Green Acres." This is a sad note to Barbara Pepper's career; at the very end of it, she did play Doris Ziffel from 1965 to 1968, until health ailments forced her to leave the role. She died of a coronary thrombosis at age 54 in 1969.
