Fast-moving, fast-talking courtroom dramatics
21 July 2020
Hang on to your hats gang, this one moves real fast. More interesting than great moving making. But fun with lots of familiar faces to 30's movie geeks (like me). Check out lovely Joan Bennett in her blonde phase. Maude Eburne, Herbert Mundin and Christian Rub show up with their usual memorable roles. Skeets Gallagher and Zasu Pitts add zip as over the top radio hosts covering the trial. And Lilian Bond crushes as the "other woman". One bad note: Cook and Dinehart as the attorneys scream at witnesses and each other and the judge non-stop. I found it very annoying. Predictable and a little creaky but still well worth a watch IMHO.
