Featured review
Pleasant and undemanding.
Jimmie (Jackie Moran) is an eager young man who works at the newspaper. His job is an entry level job and he mostly cleans up and does grunt work...though he has visions of one day being a reporter. And, with the Olaf Jensen murder case, Jimmie is eager to investigate, as he KNOWS Olaf couldn't have killed anyone since he is such a kind old man. Can he and his new lady friend, Millie (Marcia Mae Jones), prove to the court that Olaf isn't responsible for the killing?
This film clocks in at 68 minutes...the length of a B-movie (they ran from 55-70 minutes in almost all cases). And, like most Bs, there are no first-tier stars but a few familiar character actors. Plus, like so many Bs, it's also a mystery. Overall, not bad and it's the sort of undemanding entertainment that is nice as a time-passer.
