Another month's worth of movies in the can! First I caught up from February, revisiting 6 more films I hadnt seen in many years, then on to "new-to-me" films for the rest of the month. I fell short again only viewing 22 more films so I have to play catch up again in April (9 films), then its back to stuff I haven't seen in a long time...<br />

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Joan Blondell is relegated to third billing in her
last film with Pat O’Brien at WB (maybe her last at WB, period!). Pat plays a
fast (and LOUD!) talking boxing manager who cajoles hayseed Wayne Morris to let
him make him the world’s champion, this time by promising to find his long-lost
mother! What transpires is ridiculous to say the least but awfully funny at
times thanks to the three leads as well as May Robson, Stanley Fields and
Sidney Toler. **</span></div>

Henry Gordon, Jack Carson, Tully Marshall and Alan Mowbray round out the

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Fascinating silent/talkie hybrid with a great
performance by Richard Barthelmess as a big shot gangster sent to the pen where
he changes he ways by exploring his love of music. Betty Compson is wonderful
as his very devoted and loving girlfriend and Robert Emmett O’Connor has a
great scene as, of course…a cop! The way the film switched from silent to
talking and back again was really interesting and served the film well! Nice
work by director Frank Lloyd. ***</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Fredric March and Sylvia Sidney elevate this tale of a
sweet rich young woman marrying a drunken reporter turned playwright who cant
seem to let go of his past involvement with an actress. For most of the picture
I really hated March’s character’s guts, he was so inconsiderate and weak, but
the resolution, brilliantly played out by him as always, saved the whole film
for me. At this point in her career Sylvia had to be one of the most beautiful
women in Hollywood but she also had a fiery talent and was extremely good in
this. The two leads really sparred well but also showed convincing tenderness
in the sweeter scenes. Cary Grant was amusing in a small role. ***</span></span></span></span></div>

<b>“I Am a Fugitive From a Chain Gang” 1932 WB</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">The great Paul Muni gives the performance of his
career as James Allen, a decorated WWI veteran, falsely accused of robbery and
sentenced to hard labor on a chain gang. The harrowing and tragic true story of
Robert Burns is taken as a base and fashioned into one of the most potent and
unforgettable Hollywood films ever made. First rate direction, editing,
screenplay, cast and performances and a knockout finale that will leave you

<b>“Sinner’s Holiday” 1930 WB</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Interesting early talkie about carnival life was the
screen debut of James Cagney. He is quite good even though he did go a bit over
the top in the more emotional scenes. This was also the first pairing of Cagney
with Joan Blondell and she is totally perfect as a bottom of the barrel floozy.
Evalyn Knapp is fine but Grant Withers goes a bit overboard with the Eddie
Cantor style bug eyes. I like the carnival atmosphere and
quirky characters. Good little film. ** ½</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">James Cagney’s first film with Wild Bill Wellman is an
engaging and fast moving little drama. Star Grant Withers gives a much better
performance in this than “Sinner’s Holiday” and with people like Mary Astor,
Reegis Toomey and of course, Cagney and Joan Blondell in the cast you really
can’t miss! Joan and Withers did a great drunk scene together. As always
Wellman added those special visual touches that set him apart from all other
film makers. ***</span></div>

powerhouse performance in William Wellman’s tough, fast moving gangster
classic. Top-notch support from Joan Blondell, Mae Clark, Eddie Woods, Leslie
“Nails Nathan” Fenton and Robert Emmett O’Connor. The only off note is Jean
Harlow, she just does not fit in this picture at all in my opinion but she can't bring it down! For a 1931
production Wellman’s camera was amazingly mobile and the overall energy and
toughness of the picture remains potent to this day. ****</span></div>

get back at the guys who let him take a rap for something he didn’t do. A
chance meeting with down-on-her luck Joan Blondell complicates things. A good

considering that it was directed by Lloyd Bacon, but I enjoyed it much more
this time than when I first saw it many years ago. ** ½</span><br />

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Highly entertaining, over the top tale of two
Gold Diggers, played by Joan Blondell and Glenda Farrell, high-tailing it down
to Cuba to hook a millionaire or two. Silly, fast-paced and a whole lot of fun
and Joan is shown in some of Orry Kelly’s most revealing and outrageous
fashions. She’s pure sex on a stick! ***</span><br />

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Ann Dvorak gives a tour de force performance in
one of Warner Bros. most quintessentially “WB” films of the 1930’s. The remaining
cast – Joan Blondell, Bette Davis, Warren William, Lyle Talbot, Humphrey
Bogart, Allen Jenkins, Jack LaRue and Edward Arnold are all superb as well but
this was Ann’s moment to shine and she is utterly compelling. The film itself
is a marvel of economic storytelling showing the lives of three women from
childhood to adult and what happens when their paths cross. A fantastic picture
on every level. Should be required viewing for any classic film fan! ****</span><br />

musical extravaganza. Three showgirls trying to find work stumble into all
sorts of interesting situations while producer Ned Sparks tries to “put on the
show”! Several Busby Berkeley numbers throughout, including the opener “We’re in
the Money”, where Ginger Rogers spouts pig-latin and the absolutely
jaw-dropping, show-stopping, unforgettable finale “My Forgotten Man”. A
first-rate job by director Mervyn LeRoy! ****</span><br />

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Joan Blondell and Warren William team up for the
last of their four films together and its one of the most whacked and bizarre
of the entire pre-code era! I wouldn’t think of giving away the plot (if you
can call it that) but it’s certainly a unique picture with a great supporting
cast including Edward Everett Horton, Frank McHugh and Claire Dodd. Joan’s
anatomy is generously and gloriously on display for pretty much the entire
film! ** ½</span><br />

as an author being reunited with the woman, wonderfully played by Genevieve
Tobin, who thinks she is the inspiration for his novels. Joan Blondell is of
course his devoted, loving and under appreciated secretary. Great supporting
cast with Wallace Ford, Hugh Herbert, Helen Chandler and Hobart Cavanaugh.
Despite this being a comedy, the dramatic scene where Joan gives Willy a piece
of her mind (and two slaps in the face!) is the best part of the film! ** ½</span><br />

<b>“Laughing Lady” 1929 Paramount *</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Decent drama of wife played by Ruth Chatterton who unknowingly becomes embroiled in a scandal that wrecks her marriage. Clive Brook plays her husbands lawyer who destroys her in court. She plots revenge on him but they end up falling for one another. Brook is stiff as a board but I like him and Ruth is fantastic. Not a great film but well worth a look. ** ½</span>

Off beat murder mystery with Carole Lombard masquerading as a Swedish Princess on her way to Hollywood via steam ship. There she meets concertina playing band leader Fred MacMurray and his sidekick William Frawley. Things get really interesting when its discovered an escaped murderer is on board. Carole does a marvelous take on Garbo and the entire supporting cast is first rate. Not a great film but very watchable! ** ½

<b>“True Confession” 1937 Paramount *</b><span style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt;">A strange hodgepodge of drama and screwball comedy enlivened by Carole Lombard and Una Merkel. Fred MacMurray…I don’t know, I definitely seem to have a problem with him most times. John Barrymore hammed it up nicely but his character served absolutely no purpose to the story at all. All in all I would say this is a misfire. On the other hand Toby Wing makes an appearance in the courtroom scene and that alone is worth the price of admission as far as I’m concerned! **</span></span> <span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></span>

<b>“Melody For Two” 1937 WB *</b><br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Fairly lackluster musical type film with Patricia Ellis once again teamed with singer James Melton. Melton has a good voice but he’s no actor and so the film really suffers when he has to emote. The supporting cast is pretty good though and we get a nice little diddy with Eddie Anderson doing a swing dance and then Charlie Foy jumps in and joins him. Good fun! The best part of this film is Patricia! She is a platinum blonde vision in Milo Anderson gowns and possibly never looked better on film! She sings a couple of tunes as well. I like her voice. Pleasant enough tripe and just over an hour running time but Pat deserves much better material than this. **</span></span></span> <span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></span></span>

Solid pre-code melodrama about a ruthlessly ambitious businessman, well-played by Douglas Fairbanks Jr., stopping at nothing to get what he wants. An interesting look at the dark side of the “American Dream” with a first rate supporting cast including Frank Morgan, Edward Everett Horton, a very glamorous Genevieve Tobin and Colleen Moore in one of her last film appearances. Well-directed by J. Walter Ruben, with some nice Deco style art direction as well. Despite a weak ending, I am puzzled as to why this film doesn’t get more recognition?! ***

<b>“Dirigible” 1931 Columbia *</b><span style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Jack Holt and Ralph Graves team up again with director Frank Capra for this taut, exciting and at times harrowing action adventure film! Solid performances and first-rate special effects elevate the story of a doomed trip to the South Pole. Fay Wray plays Graves’ long-suffering wife. She had some nicely played scenes with both Graves and Holt. By this time Capra had a sure hand making talking pictures and it shows. Quite similar in story to “The Lost Zeppelin” but the two years between them and the man in charge made all the difference in the world! Good stuff! ***</span> <span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span>

<b>“Unashamed” 1932 MGM *</b><span style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText">
Interesting but ultimately not very good tale of a woman, played by Helen Twelvetrees, in love with a no good cad played to the hilt by Monroe Owsley. He wants to marry her for her daddy’s money. Daddy refuses to permit it. Robert Young plays her trigger-happy overly protective younger brother who spends way too much time in this movie kissing her on the mouth! Lewis Stone, Jean Hersholt, Robert Warwick, and John Miljan round out a fine supporting cast. Never hits the bulls-eye but touches on many pre-code subjects and has stunning sets by Cedric Gibbons. **

<div class="MsoBodyText">
William Haines does well in a rare straight role as a radio show writer who ends up accidentally killing his awful mentally abusive wife, played to the nines by Karen Morley. The always beautiful and sincere Madge Evans plays Haines’ devoted love interest. An interesting sub plot involving Anita Page, Joan Marsh, Jean Hersholt and Neil Hamilton carried some heavy pre-code subject matter. Also in the cast were the great Wallace Ford, slimy John Miljan, Hattie McDaniel and Charley Grapewin. Well-directed by Harry Beaumont, with solid pacing and a great touches of Radio atmosphere throughout. A no-nonsense no cop-out, but optimistic ending was also a big plus! Not a great film but definitely a good one! ***

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Ramon Navarro stars as an Italian mill worker who goes to college and becomes a football hero. Along the way he meets Madge Evans and of course falls for her! But she’s the sister of the Captain of the football team who detests Navarro and it goes from there. Nice poor boy/rich girl story amidst the backdrop of Yale. Well-made picture moves right long (despite being nearly 2 hours long) and has a fine cast. Ralph Graves is a standout as their coach but Henry Armetta steals the show as Navarro’s hot-tempered father! Madge is absolutely radiant throughout! ** ½</span> <span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span>

Leila Hyams, Anita Page and potato chip munching Marie Prevost are excellent in supporting roles. John Miljan shows up again in another slimeball role that he is just so adept at playing!

Highly entertaining backstage musical murder mystery that certainly represents the apex of precodery! Jack Oakie stars as a producer on opening night trying to put on his show, meanwhile backstage all kinds of antics are occurring! Victor McLaglen plays a police detective who seems much more interested in investigating the girls more than the murders! Very fast moving and frantic, with some really outrageous musical numbers including one called “Sweet Marijuana”!!! The showgirls are practically nude for the entire film and there are some really cool Art Deco sets and costumes. Toby Wing makes several appearances, all giggles, smiles and sex on a stick! ***
