One of my favourites from the boys. You always get great value, especially from the works that they did with James Finlayson, who had that amazingly villainous face and the 'D'oh!' that Matt Groening would immortalize in his character, Homer Simpson. An added great bonus is the blonde siren who made ... far too few films before dying so young--Thelma Todd.
