Review of Red Hot Tires

Red Hot Tires (1935)
6/10
racetracks. courtrooms.
2 June 2019
From First National, which was already Warner Brothers by now.... Lyle Talbot, Gavin Gordon, and Mary Astor were already big hollywood names. Lovers triangle, with the two men fighting over Pat Sanford (Astor). This all takes place around the racetracks, which were apparently filmed at LA Legion and the Indianapolis Speedway. Lots of backdrops and stock footage. It's all pretty clean cut stuff, as the film code was in full force by now. Check out the wikipedia entry for Gavin Gordon -- some fun trivia from his life on there. Anyhow. the guys despise each other, and when shenanigans happen on the racetrack, there's a courtroom trial. will the truth come out? lots of action. its pretty good! Directed by Ross Lederman. never won an oscar, but made some respectable films. as of today, wikipedia thinks he was married to "June", but imdb says it was Doris Warner... odd. ah well.
