Re: Dr Vermin Strikes Again!

Re: Under the Radar
Best Vitaphone I've seen thus far is Buzzin' Around w/ Roscoe, Al St John and Pete The Pup. Haven't seen any Warren Doane Universals. Has anyone on this board seen Franklin Pangborn's starring Columbia 2-reeler, The Captain Hates The Ceiling ? I have a weakness for Clark And McCullough comedies and ...

Re: Becoming Charley Chase - July 28 Release
I'm in the process of going through the 4 DVDS; much enjoying viewing the Jimmy Jump shorts, some co-starring the winsome Martha Sleeper and Catherine Grant, for the first time. Do any starring vehicles spotlighting these stellar leading ladies exist? Made a point of promoting "Becoming Charley...

Re: Victoria Forde
Alas, due to a combination of scheduling conflicts, "stuff happening" and, oops, human error on my part, I missed much of the Broncho Billy Festival and didn't arrive until Sunday afternoon. Considered Victoria Forde's comic bits and ditzy charm in Lizzie's Dizzy Career the highpoint of th...

Victoria Forde
Watched a Nestor comedy, directed by Eddie Lyons and written by Al Christie, at Niles last weekend. Victoria Forde starred as "Lizzie" in Lizzie's Dizzy Career, with Lyons as her bumpkin boyfriend and Lee Moran as a butt-kicking director. I found Forde an enjoyably goofy comic actress in t...
