Then again, there's a bit of "comedic" music in the film that sounds at least "in the style of" W. Franke Harling. Now, where's the rest of the goddamn movie? I mean it's no SHANGHAI EXPRESS, but...

I'm planning on doing a short review of it on "Other Laemmle's" later this week. If you're interested in acquiring a copy, send me your email address & I'll give you the address of a guy who's got it. Actually, he has a lotta of early Laemmle's & other companies as well. I'm a little reluctant to post his info publicly as the legality of what he's doing is a bit uhhhhhh questionable? Last Edited By: Mort Bakaprevski Jul 8 12 12:53 PM. Edited 1 times.

In addition to Ms. Nagel, I was particularly fond of Nan Grey, Anne Gwynne & Louise Allbritton. So, who makes it beeeg? Why, Maria Montez of course.

Meanwhile... where they hell did that footage of a miniature Manhattan come from that plays under the recap of THE GREEN HORNET? The Mysterious Mr. Long

Okay, given I have 5 or 6000 DVDs already I know that I already have a lot of what I want but still this month it only ran to 3 pages... (And given I completely ignored the station during July I sure as hell hope they re-run BERKLEY SQUARE again soon.) The Mysterious Mr. Long
