unknowns?


I don't recognize one single actor in this movie. does anybody else?

reply

Heck yes, it's chock full of recognizable actors: William 'Hopalong Cassidy' Boyd, Bruce "King Kong" Cabot, Lon Chaney Jr. (billed here as Creighton Chaney), future Oscar nominee William Gargan and my favorite - Betty Furness - who used to appear on New York's "Life at Five" in the 1980s !

These actors were certainly not unknowns in their day, but today, nearly 80 years later, are mostly forgotten by today's public. Perhaps the best known is the star, William Boyd, who became famous from the 1930s to 1950s as the cowboy star Hopalong Cassidy, in many great western B-movies and a popular TV series made for the kids in the 1950s, similar to the TV westerns of Roy Rogers and Gene Autry.

Significance is the popsicle of a melting mind.

And how about Rosco Ates, who played the comedy relief character Gabby?
