Police Car 17 (1933)
4/10
Sends a bad message, and the casting was a stretch
31 March 2021
Warning: Spoilers
One of those early B films that seemed rushed. Tim McCoy is a good cowboy but not so hot as a cop; he's also poorly cast, almost 20 years older than his love interest (Perils Of Pauline actress. Evalyn Knapp). The best part is seeing Ward Bond, not exactly young here at 30 but finally earning a billing after years of movies where he went mostly uncredited. My issue is McCoy finally breaking the case by asking the Chief to suspend him from the force so he can beat critical information out of one of the bad guys. It would be worse if the fight scene wasn't so laughable.
