Francis the Talking Mule (1950, 91 minutes, B&W), directed by Arthur Lubin. The truthful soldier Stirling didn't know how to lie about his source of information, the talking army mule, Francis. So, Stirling was treated as a lunatic. This led to one after another hilarious situation, where the mule was the only one that appeared in his right mind.
