BLONDE DYNAMITE 1950 (TUBI)

The Bowery Boys are at it again.

Slip (Leo Gorcey) and Sach (Huntz Hall) see an escort service making a ton of money, so Slip gets the idea to start one as well using the boys as escorts.

The banks throw him out and the boys' good friend Gabe (Gabriel Dell), who works at a bank tells them that they are nuts. Slip convinces Louis (Bernard Gorcey) that he needs a vacation and they will keep his sweet shop open and running while he is gone.

Louie leaves and Slip turns the sweet shop into an escort service, which gets them mixed up with gangsters that are also blackmailing Gabe. The comedy goes hot and heavy and I found that I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would.

Seeing Huntz Hall as an escort is a real hoot. This is good, clean comedy that I wish there was more of today. Well anyway, the film moves along quickly and the cast really seems to be into it.

The rest of the cast includes Adele Jergens, Harry Lewis, Murray Alper, Jody Gilbert, William Benedict, Beverly Crane and Lynn Davies.
