Trailer 380 of 464
Released soon after Pearl Harbor, audiences in 1941 didn't find this Runyonesque comic melodrama in which familiar Warner gangsters unite to fight Nazis all that funny. But years of tv exposure has built up the following it deserves. It's no To Be Or Not To Be, but Vincent Sherman's second time directing Bogart (and a terrific cast) is fast, funny and patriotic in the best sense.
Does anyone besides me recall the Westworld tv series ??? It only lasted 3 episodes, what a hunk of junk !. .
oh man!. The Robert Youngson film compilations and the books of William k Everson are what got me interested in silent film in the 60s and early 70s...
