Recensione di earlytalkie

This film is short and sweet, and Top stars Noah Beery as a baddie. Dorothy Burgess is fiery and sensuous, and Miriam Seegar fine as the "good" girl. Typical entertaining low-budget programmer probably played small houses or the second half of double bills, but today is an painless way to spend an hour seeing some stars from the early sound era who are all but totally forgotten today. (The poverty row studios seemed to specialize in offering decent parts to players whose luster had dimmed a bit after the initial boom of the first talkies). I find more and more films from poverty row which are entertaining, even some with production values which are pretty good considering their low budgets. That so many have survived at all is amazing since these were made by companies that long ago went out of business and the films were thought to have no value beyond their initial releases. There is a satisfying ending to this film. I won't spoil it for you, but try to see this when you can't decide on anything else to watch. I think you'll like it.
