Watch it for a very young Loretta


I stumbled upon this movie thinking it was going to be one of the Hope and Crosby "Road" pictures. But no, it's a 17-year-old Loretta Young playing twins! She's lovely as always, but there's not another performer in this movie that would be recognized by classic movie fans today. Luckily she upgrades to Ronald Coleman and James Cagney as co-stars within the next year.

What?! Nobody that classic movie fans would recognize?! I never miss a Purnell Pratt picture!

Actually, the film was shot in late 1929, when Young was still sixteen.

You are a bigger classic movie fan than I am, then!!
