    Below par Forde film.

    I'm adding reviews for films I've seen that so far lack one, review follows... Forde's final film as a (credited) actor, has him staring as a struggling musician trying to audition for a theatrical manager, the film picks up in the second half as our hero end up mistakenly as a criminal. This is the 2nd early Walter Forde film that I have added today, I saw this on 26th Nov 1991 (24 years ago) at The Museum of London(UK) as part of the 'made in London' season, I timed it at 78 minutes, will try to update running time here if I can find supporting records. Not enough lines! So I will advise readers to check out some of Forde's better outings, such as The Peterville Diamond (1942).
