Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
goofonaroof In 1949 until 1956, Joe Besser was signed on by Columbia to star in 10 comedy two-reelers for the studio. In this one, Besser is unofficially teamed with local radio comedian Jim Hawthorne as Besser's straight-man. The short itself is a scene-by-scene remake of the 1943 Stooges short Dizzy Detectives as Besser and Hawthorne play detectives who go after a gorilla trained to rob an antique store after hours.It was remade, yet again, in 1955 as Hook a Crook.
