Hard Boiled Mahoney (1947) **

"In order to be a detective ya gotta have a deductible mind. Ya gotta have the power of treason."

Not one of the more agreeable Bowery Boys movies for me. The plot is bungled as Leo Gorcey (as Slip Mahoney) takes it upon himself to become a self-made private eye attempting to find a missing woman. Not much humor to howl about in the mix. Interesting note: Gabriel Dell, who as far as I've known up till this viewing had usually played the straight man against all the insanity, actually dons a pair of geeky glasses as one of the zanies in the group this time around. He looks completely forced and out of his element.

Trivia
The only film in the Bowery Boys series where Gabe is part of the gang and not a former member or protagonist.

Goofs
At 10:47 Gabe chews on a match. The match shifts from left and right sides of his mouth between group shots and close-ups, and even seems to disappear entirely in the last shot.
