Featured review
lumberjacks at work... and after work.
Stars John Payne and Gloria Dickson. Stanley Fields is the Boss. Fields has a pretty interesting story... he had started out as a boxer, which explains the first five minutes of the films, where they box for no reason. and Fields only made a couple more films, then died the next year. Payne is Slim Jim, who shows up and wants to work as a lumberjack, but has to prove himself, of course. Jackson also shows up in town, as a singer, and we can tell right off SOMEONE is going to fall in love. Jimmy Conlin is the pianny player.. he was a bit-part player in just EVERYTHING in the 1930s and 1940s. Everyone has a backstory, and we hear it, and watch it play out. An age old story. Surprisingly good film. Some very predictable scenes, but oh, well. Just part of the deal. Shown on Turner Classic Films. Only 81 votes so far, so they must have just started showing it. Directed by William Clemens for Warner Brothers. A 58 minute shortie, but a goodie.
