  • The Bashful Bachelor is a 1942 American film directed by Malcolm St. Clair. The movie is about Lum Edwards, who's annoyed with his partner in Pine Ridge's Jot-'em-Down general store, Abner Peabody, because Abner has swapped their delivery car for a racehorse. Lum is also too timid to propose to Geraldine, so he involves Abner in a "rescue" effort which nearly gets both of them killed. They try again, and this time Geraldine is impressed. Lum writes a proposal note, but Abner, by mistake, delivers it to the Widder Abernathy, who has been ready to remarry for years. This puts Lum in a peck of trouble until the sheriff appears with the Widder's long-gone and hiding husband.

      Mae Questel was actually the voice of Olive Oyl but she based the voice Olive on Pitts.

      @@joebloe6928 I saw Zasu Pitts in the Popeye credits and asked him about her and her name! He said Zazu, but her son Don Gallery later told me it was ZaySue. He told me she was the voice of Olive Oyl, and never mentioned Mae. This leads me to believe Zasu was the first voice followed by Mae? I do know that Mae voiced her for a long time but I also know I saw Zasu in credits and spoke to Don. Don lived a few houses down from the former Villa of Elizabeth Taylor in Puerto Vallarta on Calle Zaragoza! I stayed there and helped my friend Toy the new owner and later Don gave tours as well on Wednesdays! He was the by birth son of Barbra LaMar who died and was adopted by Zasu. He had amazing stories about growing up in old Hollywood!

    The Lum n Abner radio shows were pretty funny and not quite as corny as this. I enjoy watching because it's interesting to see what folks in wartime were paying to watch at the theaters back then. Thumbs up.

    Simple family friendly gem of a community in a little town. The pace was slow but leaves you feeling restful and peaceful (nobody rushing to be anywhere else).
    Back then the phone would ring a certain number of times before you know someone was calling your place (as back then it was a shared line).

    • @petegregory517
      @petegregory517 Год назад +1

      “You get it.”
      “You get it, I got it last time.”
      “It ain’t for me”.
      “Me neither.”
      “How do you know?”
      By that time it stopped ringing. Four of us sometimes 5 and nobody wanted to answer unless they were expecting a call.
