I recently added Roger Pryor on my list of favourite Hollywood leading men. He was fantastic.
He looked FAR better without a moustache.
Awesome! Fun movie about reporters, the news and people they meet, with love thrown in, on the side!
News is all about money in this movie and is true to this day.
Way more so now.
I somewhat disagree. Nowadays it’s about promoting a certain ideology.
Thanks again to PizzaFlix for the great b&w film. Really enjoyed this one. Just wish that I could claim that I was related to Roger Pryor.
A fun, fast paced comedy/action film with a great cast. Loved it, especially Heather Angel! 🥰
It isn't hard to like Heather Angel.
@@leelarson107 It IS hard to find her. She doesn't even appear for a half hour of all boys together.
Russell Hopton, Jack LaRue, Franklin Pangborn, Ward Bond. Not bad for a’B’ movie.
WARD BOND :. The only time I saw him smile and laugh was in a movie that is my top three favorites'
"THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE"...1948.
Great Talents...and will leave you smiling
- or more - at the end!
It is the BEST !!
Thanx so much for sharing these obscure gems! :)
Enjoying this movie a lot, but sad that being so 'young', I do not recognise them. thanks for posting it, Dave.
Sheerly delightful screwball comedy of the highest order!
A fine lesson about group dynamics and how pure evil controls idiots. A child would never watch the news because they are brilliant.
6:30. "If it bleeds, it leads"
Nothing's changed
I love the actor who clicks his fingers (& is known for it!) It always seems to help him too ~
Jack LaRue is his name
I believe you're referring to the lead Mr Pryor
@@sheristewart3940No, that was Roger Pryor.
Fun movie! Thanks 😊 I enjoy all the old black and white movies! Especially the 30s !
Man all of these old films put tuxedo NY on the map!!
Great flick once it really got started. Heather Angel is a beauty and can act and Roger Pryor is a WoW! I'll be looking for them in future films. Loved this movie...simple n sweet n fun. TYPIZZAFLIX
Romantic Comedy but that moniker seems to sell this one short. Clever & different movie and not for that time period only. Really enjoyed it. Great Characters and Great Acting. Thank you.
Love these old character actors!
Great lines and comedy in this one!
This movie Reminds me of "It Happened One Night" w Clark Gable& Claudette Colbert! Does Any one else See similarities? This Was a Very Good movie,I enjoyed it quite a bit! Thank You to People responsible4 putting it on YTube!
I don't see the simialarities, but I would like to if you, or anyone else, would be so kind to point them out.
I know "It Happened One Night, very well.
The description made me think of that movie immediately.
We're so glad you are enjoying our selection classic films. It really is a special experience -- like going back in time? Stay-tuned for PIZZA AND A MOVIE, our fan-sourced movie review show. PF gang.
"It's the press that runs this Town." 1935.... ...Now where have I heard that recently?
1935 2021 hello there ditto
Today corporations and governments run the press!
Lively comedy....Roger is a comic revelation, to me anyway ! It's obviously a cross between The Front Page and It Happened One Night (34) deploying all the Hard-boiled Newspaper man and Footloose Heiress tropes.
Pizza Flix thanks for this fun-filled movie.
Oh yeah that's a great one thanks for the upload!
Ford Sterling was the original Keystone star and chief of the Keystone Kops. Wheeler Oakman was Charlie Chaplin's half-brother and appears with Charlie and Sydney - all three Chaplin brothers - in "Limelight."
Pretty cute! Thank you, Pizza!!
@12:56- Perfect timing! If Pryor opens the door a bit late, that apple goes right through the door glass!
Yeah Ward Bond❤. What a fun exciting movie ❤❤❤
The pencil-thin mustache was a popular look for men back then.
~I bet it was a challenge to keep the look, unless they consistently went to barbershops!
don vito and fredo corleone both rocked up with it. it adds some swag to any button man
using a fine makeup brush or similar, just "paint" one on ...
Sister~ it's simple if a man "wet shaves", which is increasingly rare these days.
The pencil-thin moustache never looked good on anybody.
@@leelarson107 That is so true. Almost of the men with them in films back then looked like scoundrels overwhelmingly were.
$264 then is worth over $6700 today.
That was amazing!
The dumb cop Hugo is Ford Sterling, one of the biggest silent film stars who worked with Charlie Chaplin.
+RobertPearson I just love it when fellow commentors pass on these tidbits of information. Thanks so much for more background info on actors!
@@deby5983 Ford was one of the original Keystone Cops and was the chief in many of those comedies. So it was appropriate for him to be a cop in this film.
What ever. became oh the fedora hat. ???.
@@johnbockelie3899 Probably somewhere in storage
@@johnbockelie3899 I wear one on occasion.
Good Movie..
Wow lots of scammers in this movie!
52:40 - "I'm phoning you from a taxicab."
"You're WHAAAAT?"
@-oiiio-3993 I wonder if they new then that you would be able to phone someone from a taxi 📱 🚕 👀🙏🏽‼️. I’m older so I LOVE these black & white movies 👍🏽‼️.
This may be the only movie that Ward Bond played entirely lying down. Roger Pryor should have been a bigger star based on his performance.
He really needed to get rid of that moustache.
@@leelarson107 Yes, it emphasizes how little his mouth is.
About to start...here goes nothing. 😮
A great movie!
What REALLY makes it great is that it was approved with certificate #872!! WOW!! 😱🙀🤯
감사합니다
I knew this was going to be a good movie when I saw that George Karr provided the costumes.🙄
Hey 9018 let's hope it's not fake news!!
You see thAt folks😎back then..some reporters were smart ! now they're nit--wits😛
the ones you read anyway. certainly fox news fits that bill
@@danielstanwyck2812 CNN /NBC / etc etc etc fit the bill as will.
Wow I saw a young Ward Bond!!
I luv Heather Angel
Wow, her birthday is tomorrow. (Posted 08FEB2024)
I could tell something a joke about May being in the census taker would chastise me for being rude so I want 😆😅😆😂
Only a complicated nut could write this very fun script...
hey Ward Bond
Major Seth Adams wagon master.
"rattle" and "seattle" rhyme not with "apple". Minus 5 points.
Great fun!
To expect " just the facts " ever, is just a fantasy I guess.

Is that supposed to be a well known fact about Ward Bond being a racist n everyone knew that about him or is it conjuncture n rumour of the era?! I never heard that before n I've seen him in tons of movies as I learned about classic movies by watching them with my Mom late at night as a teenager. She knew about every actor n actress first hand being born herself in 1934 n I was born in 1957!! INTERESTING!!!!
. *YOU GOTTA WATCH THIS SCENE. HILARIOUS ... AND SOMETIMES TRUE !!!* 5:43 /
Pinched from The Front Page (31) and reused in His Girl Friday (39)
Really cute.
@1:03:01~ Laughed so hard I choked on my scotch! Imagine that line today!
I do believe there’s a resemblance Rodger P. And Richard P .
Watched it til the end ... I wouldn't call it a "crime thriller" .... more like a "crime comedy" ...
You don't like to laugh?
Soooo my inner "historian" ears caught, at 8:40 in, a reference to Burton Holmes..."I like Burton Holmes better, he carries slides". Here's the wiki: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elias_Burton_Holmes...yep...the dude who gave us the term "travelogue".

Anybody catch George "Gabby" Hayes as the desk Sargent?
No.
Ford Sterling was one of the original Keystone Cops. Jimmy Cagney credited Roger Pryor as a strong influence on him. The guy was good--he seldom overacted, injected little bits of business into the script to keep things interesting (in this film snapping his fingers to remember and a running gag about his hat), and he could carry a film with his personality. Cagney did the same things except he too often over acted, especially in his later years. Pryor was never given the credit he deserved, an old Hollywood refrain.
I agree, never been a James Cagney fan. His acting was always over the top.

Hilarious movie 😂
'Hocking deadmen', R har har.
Is it just my ears or does this music sound like The Little Rascal's theme song/music every time something happens? At 21:25 or so.
A bit, but not quite.
The well known incidental music for so many beloved Hal Roach shorts from the Our Gang Comedies, Laurel and Hardy, Charley Chase, The Boy Friends, Todd and Pitts, Todd and Kelly..., was written by LeRoy Shield.
IMDB lists the 'Music' credits for this film as follows:
J. Keirn Brennan ... composer: stock music (uncredited)
Ted Fio Rito ... composer: stock music (uncredited)
Arthur Kay ... composer: stock music (uncredited)
Abe Meyer ... music supervisor (uncredited)
Neil Moret ... composer: stock music (uncredited)
Ted Snyder ... composer: stock music (uncredited)
Harry Tobias ... composer: stock music (uncredited)
Renditions of Shield's works can be found on RUclips performed by _The Beau Hunks,_ circa 1992.
It's just your ears.
Let me open up the back of my 📱 and let the sugar out...
I just didn't get this one. The title confused me, never did figure that out. Also not very fond of Roger Pryor, just not believable.
Heather Angel surprised me though I recognized her from "The Case of the Lucky Loser".
+Jackie L WHAT WERE YOU WATCHING .....................THIS FILM WAS GOOD PLUS SCRIPT ....&IT MOVED ...NOT SLOW
was this made before 1800? Seems so.
@@gildamarlowe5110 yeah ... around 1787 .. a year after Ben Franklin invented the first auto-mo-bile
At 41:20 Roger gives Heather a press pass so she can pass as a reporter to get out of the night club.
@@ruthmaryroseUmm... Yeah, we got that.
more like a Keystone Cops episode, really silly
Rodger Pryor might be Richard Pryor’s grandfather??
No.

7:41, 8:33, 11:15, 15:44, 18:23, 21:10, 28:00, 37:45, 42:02, 46:51, 52:47, 56:53, 1:05:47, 1:15:02
Please explain.
@1:03:00~ Bwahahaha. Good luck with that!!
Just go to Eagle Pass, TX.
Variations on a theme: a dumb (non) Irish cop "Hugo Meyer." Not the traditional movie cop name, that's for sure. And "cheers" for Ward Bond (playing newspaperman Johnson "on the sofa"), one of the most notorious racists and Jew-haters in the history of American film. And (natch) good buddy of John Wayne. At 8:55 Gabby Hayes as...a police desk sergeant?(!) And Franklin Panghorn as a newsie as well. Trusting that Ward Bond didn't like "him" either.
(Change your 'handle' to "Just stupid")
Yes, George "Gabby" Hayes co-starred with John Wayne in a number of 1930's films, before "Stagecoach" catapulted Wayne into super-stardom.
@12:56- Perfect timing! If Pryor opens the door a bit late, that apple goes right through the door glass!
