- An elevator boy (Frankie Darro) and his detective brother solve mob-related murders.
Mantan Moreland (September 3, 1902 - September 28, 1973) was an American actor and comedian most popular in the 1930s and 1940s.
Monogram Pictures signed Moreland to appear opposite Frankie Darro in the studio's popular action pictures. Moreland, with his bulging eyes and cackling laugh, quickly became a favorite supporting player in Hollywood movies. He is perhaps best known for his role as chauffeur Birmingham Brown in Monogram's Charlie Chan series.[3] At the height of his career, Moreland received steady work from major film studios, as well as from independent producers who starred Moreland in low-budget, all-black-cast comedies. - wikipedia

I love all these old movies especially Mandan Moreland, he’s in a class of his own. I don’t think some of those productions would of made it without him!
Mantan Moreland was great! He saved many cheapo production with his performance!
Mantan Moreland was my cousin. I was wondering if he had any children. My mother Mildred Elizabeth Moreland mentioned he was a Hollywood star, when we were growing up but we never met him. I wish I knew if he had children. I'd love to connect with someone. Does he have a STAR on HOLLYWOOD's walk of fame? He should!
If it is true that he WAS your cousin, then he still IS your cousin. The answers to all your questions are very likely on the internet. Search and read.
Sometimes character actors made more money then the stars..Mantan Moreland was great actor...You don't find them like him anymore. I sure miss the old time actors
Hi Debbie your cousin had a wife named Hazel and a daughter named Marcella if I find out any more also he was one of the best African American actors of that era there were so many I truly love Hattie McDaniel 😉💜💫
Wife Hazel, 1913 to 1999 Marcella 1904 of April I think she is sill alive I hope this helped you.
I believe you had an Uncle by the name of Mues Moreland down in Clarksdale Mississippi.My Uncle George Woods who recently pasted away at 94 years once mentioned that to my Mom whos 80.
Love Mantan but people forget just how much chemistry he had with Frankie Darro . Darro was a really solid actor who served his country and contracted Malaria! He was too short to be considered a leading man but for that time period he was smooth!
Mantan Moreland was a great actor. I search for movies with him them.
I didn't hear of him until today...he was great
Mantan Moreland was ahead of his time I still till this day watching his movies before I go too bed these movies you will not see today those were the good old days I cherish watching these good old movies still 😊
Love every film these two make. I do watch them regularly. July, 2023.
Scenes go from night to day to day to night in a flash. More to the charm. I love the old cheapies. (45:36-45:33)
I'm hooked on these movies thanks to Mantan Moreland. He's a real hoot!
Mr Moreland's stuff is classic & original.
When U think of him U don't think comedian. He holds dwn. His character.
i LOVE HIM. SO NATURAL A PLEASURE TO WATCH. HIS FACIAL EXPRESSIONS GET ME EVERY TIME. SHOULD MAIN STREAM HIM NOW TO NEW PEOPLE TO ENJOY.
Another priceless nugget of history! Very well-done and subtle humor in this, too.
Love Mantan Moreland these movies like this never get tired of watching them these movies y won’t ever see again I till this day enjoy/ cherish watching them thanks
Certainly not the best written script of their films, but that just makes Mantan's clever contributions stand out all the more.
Thank you for posting this film with Mantan Moreland. He was one of the greatest however he still doesn't get the recognization that he deserves!
Drums of the desert is my fave. I agree, his writers had respect for his audience.
@@reelblack Great job unearthing these gems.🥂.
Any film with Mantan Moreland in always worth a look thanks for posting.
Just love watching these B/W movies thanks bringing them back I enjoy them
Moreland and Darro were a great team. 🎥🥂
Lampwick is in this!

Chicago love
Those eyes says it all Mantan slays me🥴
Like these old movies. That frankie Dani is a cutie.
Love the character actors!
The scenes go from day to night to day in hot flashes. I love the old ones made on the cheap. (45:36-45:33)
Mantan was the man in black comedy in the 40s, but he made some all black comedies during that time where he is WAY rawer and looser than he was in the Frankie Darro and Charlie Chan films, such as "Lucky Ghost" (1941), Two Gun Man from Harlem (1938, with Stymie Beard of the Little Rascals), and "Tall Tan & Terrific" (1946), which as far as I know are the only ones of this type that still exist. There are some others that I presume are lost, such as "Up Jumped the Devil," "Mantan for Mayor," "Professor Creeps," and "Mr. Washington Goes to Town." I hope someone finds this stuff.
Thanks for history lesson. Too bad today’s generation will never know what true talent is nor will this generation know what good movies are.
my favorite of his is 1941's King of the Zombies.
I'm here for Mantan. Mantan suggested Frankies only daughters name...😁
Proof??
@@whynot6266 I am not obligated to prove anything. You can research it your own damn self.
Jeff always seems to have a relative locked up.
Interesting. The edition of the Star Tribune at 42:43 is in Spanish. Frankie translates as he's reading. Pretty cool to learn he's bilingual! LOL
Ironic Frankie was an elevator operator with one line, uncredited, in a perry mason episode from 1958
He was the original actor to play robbie the robot in forbidden planet but he was replaced because he was always drunk and he would fall over on the ground because he was so drunk he couldn't keep his balance.
@@brianbavosa877 He got fired because he fell on the Robby the Robot suit after a five Martini lunch

Moreland made my eyes hurt. OUCH!
It's a shame Frankie Darro was drafted into the military, and the team was broken up. He and Mantan were on a roll together, and their films did well at the box oftice.
"why should I be a conception to the rule"...2:40
Thanks
Hotel manager rather musical
VERY DECIVINGINLY RESPECTFUL image of early 1940's America...once again why you don't believe T.V.
Audio's not good.
Fun movie, but sound quality is terrible. Having trouble hearing and the volume is all the way up.
I lost my job as a sales associate.....Restaurant.....'_'
Now I see where Chris Tucker got his shtick!

He was a wel-rounded actor...to kow-tow to the white race and act the buffoon in films took real acting and a very hard outer shell allowing, him to peservere in his craft, while depicting absolute comedic brilliance!!!
Mantan Moreland is always great value. He makes us laugh out loud, with his fantastic comic timing and natural delivery of even the silliest lines - but we always laugh with him, never at him, and see him not as a buffoon but a really smart sidekick! I doubt these films would pass the P.C. test today.
38:29 Money laundering.
6.37 I saw it but I wasn't looking. Very entertaining I had to share but just dont understand the Black man having to buck his 👀.
My exact thoughts
Marsum and debbie dishman: The idiotic Hollywood "Minority" Stereotyping System is what it was.
@@mikethomas9587 You're missing something. They also stereotyped the cops as dumb and inept and usually Irish, the press as unprofessional and unscrupulous (maybe today), hotel managers as simpering and effeminate, country people as bumpkins, young women as airheads, the Irish as hot tempered drunks, waitresses as gum chewing wisecrackers and the list goes on. At least they opened the door for blacks and other minorities to get a start in movies.
@@DavidSmith-sb2ix Thank you!
