1949, Movie, NR, 64 mins

Typical witless "Bowery Boys" comedy finds the group running an automatic laundry. Shaw is a young mother whose baby is being held hostage so she can't collect an inheritance. Gorcey, Hall, and company come to her aid. Gorcey has some moments impersonating a foreign psychologist with Hall as his idiot patient, but it's limited humor. Lots of low comedy but little of the melodrama that rounded out the mix the boys are noted for. leave a comment

His brother's an astronaut, his new job as press secretary has him around reporters all day and, mostly, because a woefully underused Richard Shiff has to be looking for the Oval Office exit after seven years. Did anyone else think it looked like President Bartlet already knew it was Toby? That whole exchange about Leo being in trouble felt a little weird. Speaking of a little weird, are we to believe that  Kristin Chenoweth's Annabeth has a thing for Leo? Sure seemed read more
