Scatman Crothers Roasts Angie Dickinson

Scatman Crothers was an actor, singer and musician whose warm, distinctive voice and long entertainment career spanned film, television and music. Angie Dickinson was a film and television star known for a cool, glamorous screen presence and for the series Police Woman.

In this clip, Scatman Crothers turns that contrast into roast material, teasing Angie Dickinson with the affectionate exaggeration and show-business one-upmanship that defined the format.
