With this coming July 8 the 100th year of the birth of legendary jazz musician Louis Jordan, I thought I'd look at some of his vintage film appearances of which Look-Out Sister was one of them. He plays himself as someone exhausted to the point of getting into a place where he can get plenty of rest. Then he sees a young boy who wants to be a cowboy which inspires him to form a ranch to help sick children. There's also something about a mortgage but that part's for the birds. The real interest is the multiple number of songs Jordan performs throughout the picture that provides most of the entertainment. For that reason, I'd recommend Look-Out Sister. P.S. Monte Hawley, who plays the villain here, is another performer who came from my birth-town of Chicago, Ill.
