Guy Kibbee was a great character actor!! This movie is great fun!! Guy Kibbee was always great in Mr. Deeds Goes To Washington, starring Jimmy Stewart. Mr. Kibbee was probably in over 100 movies!
These old movies are so wonderful! The touch of comedy is wonderful too. . One of the things I love is to see is the hats that the women wear and the cars that everyone drives! I think Billie Burke would’ve made a great actress for the part of the old lady. (Can’t think of her name in the movie)
i love the hats too, love the styles. Sometimes I wish they would come back. The men are so handsome with hats, and the ladies seem very respectable with hats.

He poured his coffee into his saucer then sipped it from the saucer...my Gran used to do that & she brewed her coffee on the stove top...hot strong coffee; it smelled so good & was strong
Tom Brown was the "original" Rob Lowe! A really fun caper. $30,000 in 1937 is equivalent to $517,000 in 2017 or £400,000 - a lot to carry alone and hand over without ID being asked for or a signature when being handed over!
Fun fact: the novelist Nathaniel West worked without credit on this screenplay when struggling to establish himself in Hollywood. It was produced by what its contract writers called 'Repulsive Pictures', i.e. Republic.
Very strong cast for a B-movie. Only the lead actress is unknown. She reminds me a whole lot of Diana Lewis, who had more of a career and appeared in some big movies, and married William Powell. While watching the movie I kept thinking it was her.
Excellent shape for an 85 year old film. Professionalism in every aspect, but cornball plot. It was well received by the public in its distribition - in those days, the studios put out 3-5 films each week, and employed more workers than present day Holly Wood does now. Excellent time filler, despite the predictability of it's plot. Thanks for making it available to us viewers.
A good old fashioned murder mystery with the slapstick comedy of the era, requiring finely tuned comedic timing executed by a cast of pros, nothing cornball about it.
I knew I was going to hate this about ten seconds in. It's one of those movies that exalts the virtues of rural small-town America, made at a time when most Americans lived in rural small towns. It's the kind of stuff that rural small-town Americans ate up with a spoon, since it reassured them that city folks weren't better than they were. It's also one of those movies where all the characters are human cartoons and nobody behaves remotely like a real human being. And what was the deal with Hanvey deliberately breaking the lady's 2000 year-old vase? Did he do that just to be a prick? Well, at least he was "powerful sorry" about it. Except he wasn't, since he clearly did it on purpose, which makes him a liar as well.
"I knew I was going to hate this about ten seconds in", yet you watched it anyway, just so you could whine about it. You really are a sad human being...
@@viennapalace I watched it in the hope that I might turn out to be wrong. That has been known to happen. But not in this case. If anyone can benefit from my comments and avoid this dreck, so much the better. And if they like this kind of stuff, well, good for them.
@@viennapalace I have the Disney Channel, and most of their stuff is far better than this. Of course, Disney also tended to pander to rural America just like this film does (Song of the South and the Davy Crockett movies spring to mind), but that was a general trend in Hollywood well into the 1960s. Producers understood that most of America's population lived in small rural towns or on family farms, so they tailored their product to their audience, flattering rural hicks by telling them how great they were. No doubt those Hollywood city slickers had nothing but contempt for those rural hicks, but Hollywood is a business, and if you want your product to sell, you can't afford not to be cynical. It wasn't until the late 1960s, when rural populations were shrinking and urban and suburban populations were growing, that Hollywood began shifting away from movies and TV shows praising country folk, since that was no longer where the money was.
@@graemesmith6721 Each to their own. Me, I like old movies from the era when men wore hats, women acted like ladies & wokeness was an unknown concept. Good luck to you & your children.
Seeing quite a bit of comments calling this "great". You folks need to raise your bar a bit. "Great" is usually associated with Gone With the Wind and such. This film is amusing,fun, & reasonably good. The two characters that are engaged are portrayed as no smarter than a sack of hammers. They couldn't cross the street without getting run over. This is not what great film making does, unless it's a 3 Stooges movie.
I agree that people are free and easy with the word :"great", They are infected with nostalgia and are relieved to see a film without vulgar and obscene words, largely unseen violence and a New York where anybody could walk through the front door of an apartment building without hindrance. Nonetheless, this is fun to watch and I'm thankful for the sharing.

Who doesn't love Guy Kibbee ? Excellent slapstick comedy, thanks ! June 2022
What I love about this film is E V E R Y T H I N G.
Thanks for sharing this gem.
Dear Mr Pizzaflix, I can always count on you for a wonderful movie! Thanks for another great one! 👏❤️👍
I love these old B&W mystery movies! Your channel is great, thank you!
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the sauce be with you.
Absolutely brilliant as ever. Thank you for this.
Thoroughly enjoyable from the first scene to the last. Thank you for posting this, PF.
This was fast moving funny, enjoyed it all. Laughed outoud few times. Thank you
Good good movie. Never saw Guy Kibbee in such a Great role, but he was always Wonderful, whatever he did. Worked Great with Warren William, too!
WOW!! Love this movie! What a suprise, such a fun movie to watch, with great acting. Don't see that much these days.
That was a good movie; just what I needed to relax and enjoy. 😎
These old movies are so wonderful! The touch of comedy is wonderful too. . One of the things I love is to see is the hats that the women wear and the cars that everyone drives! I think Billie Burke would’ve made a great actress for the part of the old lady. (Can’t think of her name in the movie)
i love the hats too, love the styles. Sometimes I wish they would come back. The men are so handsome with hats, and the ladies seem very respectable with hats.
Absolutely loved Guy Kibbee; born in my hometown~ El Paso, and was the beloved comic in many, many films. He was also the inspiration for a cartoon character in various Looney Toons in the 30's-40's.

The editing on this is brilliant.
Improbable, impossible, and great fun! Thanks for this!!
I added a comment, but I like yours better.

Love the dialogue in this flick :)
Guy Kibbee, a detective. Now, that's a new one.
He also played a detective in "The Life of Jimmy Dolan".
He poured his coffee into his saucer then sipped it from the saucer...my Gran used to do that & she brewed her coffee on the stove top...hot strong coffee; it smelled so good & was strong
really enjoyed this movie tonight thank you
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX
Cute movie. That young couple 💑 got a double handful of life lessons all in a couple of days!
Priceless! hardy har har!
i love this old guy, a real homespun character. a fun film 🎥🎥🎥🥂
sweet movie seven stars thank you may God bless all you love
thanks Absolutely loved it
Tom Brown was the "original" Rob Lowe! A really fun caper. $30,000 in 1937 is equivalent to $517,000 in 2017 or £400,000 - a lot to carry alone and hand over without ID being asked for or a signature when being handed over!
Tom Brown was a fine looking lad. He dod resemble Rob Lowe, literally.
Thanks, Pizza Flix! 😊💕
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you. 🍕🍕🍕
80 years old and still enjoyable. Wish they could have known.
Actually, we did. I did chores every day to get a dime every Saturday to see the movie. The Great Depression wasn't all bad.
By "they", you do mean the actors?
@@patrickryan1515 Yes Sir.
@@patrickryan1515 Yes (again!). Thought I had replied but apparantly not,

great movie still lol thanks again pf for posting
+Candace Gladden Your funny lol

The way you talk about money, you'd think you was the government. Hilarious, yet sorrowfully true.
Quite the detective. Good old flick.
I love it when they show pictures with names
Thank you!
Thank you
"...my butler will show you.." hilarious.
Very good 👍 👏
fun, never saw this actor in such a nice role. Was there a series?
Too bad the original one hour eleven minute running time was not available; oh well, still enjoyable!
Thanks good drama ! ❤️
Very strong cast for a B-movie. Only the lead actress is unknown. She reminds me a whole lot of Diana Lewis, who had more of a career and appeared in some big movies, and married William Powell. While watching the movie I kept thinking it was her.
What a FUN who dunnit! GREAT sauce @PizzaFlix
just great stuff
Another great picture show!!!
....Yea Guy Kibbee!!!
Light and breezy, fun who-done-it.
THANKS 🍕. 2 snaps up!
GOOD FLICK !!
lovely, but didn't see him unload the shotgun, when he enters the house
It's a move einstein
I wish Hollywood had continued making movies like that... instead of cartoons about LGBT superheroes who hate...
Fun film without stars.
'1937 Columbo'
Good film, despite both Frost women being utterly frustrating and the sickening nature of the love-sick couple!!
Fun show to bad he only made one . another thin or fatman . then they try to catch the real killers.
Mrs Frost is whacky dacky!
👍
Oops! He didn't know what "30 years runnin'" means.
23:50 the horse looks back and says to itself, ffs, 4 people and a carriage, really?
There were too many characters and I couldn't understand who was that bad guy at the end. Still was rather interesting.
Maybe Wm Hicks' comment explains it.
I fell asleep, so I'm no help. Getting old stinks
😴
He makes a mess of his own book. That's funny. He stole the emeralds just to collect a bet. That's hilarious.
👍 👍🙂
Who cares about this story of the rightful owner?
👍😊

Think I have found two comments calling it great. Wouldn't say that is "quite a bit".
