Truck Busters .. a war time Warner Brothers shortie. when the mob tries to take over the trucking industry, they try to fight back. but the government has stopped the sale of trucks during war time, and organized crime has taken over the bank which holds the title on everyone's truck. and then the violence begins. Richard Travis is one of the Dorgan brothers; he was Bert in "Man Who Came to Dinner". Truck Busters is kind of a re-hash of They Drive by Night, made in 1938 and 1940. The 1940 version was also Warner Brothers, but that time they had a real budget, so that one had Raft, Bogart, and Hale in it. The 1943 version was directed by Reeves Eason. this film was a "B" movie... not much story, not much budget. a whole lotta uncredited roles for extras. it's just so-so. goes exactly as expected.
