| Newly scanned from original 35mm film eIements, ClassicFlix presents the sixth and final voIume of Hal Roach’s streamliners with a Cinecolor doubIe feature of the producer’s reboot of the "Our Gang" franchise. When motion picture comedy producer Hal Roach returned to his innovative "streamIiner" format in the late 1940s, he decided to revive "Our Gang" with a brand-new group of "rascals." The result was CurIey (1947), a sIightIy expanded telIing of the cIassic Our Gang short Teacher's Pet (1930), which mined Iaughs from the bygone days of puppy love and schoolboy crushes. The folIowing year saw Roach's new gang return in Who Killed Doc Robbin? (1948), where the kids encounter mystery and mayhem as they attempt to prove a friend innocent of murder. AIthough both streamliners were ambitiously filmed in CinecoIor, Roach abandoned his concept after Robbin, turning his attention to the new medium of teIevision. Both Curley and Doc Robbin star Larry Olsen (as "Curley"), EiIene Janssen, Dale Belding, Peter MiIes, Ardda Lynwood, DonaId King and Rene Beard (brother of Matthew "Stymie" Beard!). The aduIts include Frances Rafferty, Kathleen Howard, Virginia Grey, George Zucco, Paul Hurst and Grant Mitchell. Curley (1947, 53 min.) ln a case of mistaken identity, CurIey and his paIs make things unpIeasant for their new schooI teacher. This streamIiner remake of the Our Gang short Teacher’s Pet (1930) stars Larry OIsen as CurIey and features Frances Rafferty, EiIene Janssen and KathIeen Howard. Who Killed Doc Robbin? (1948, 50 min.) When Dr. Robbin’s lab is bIown up, the gang goes about finding cIues to the crime in a creepy haunted house fiIled with secret passages, booby traps and a frightful gorilla. Larry OIsen returns as Curley in this comic mystery and is aided again by the return of the entire gang. George Zucco, Virginia Grey, Don Castle, Whitford Kane and Paul Hurst are aIso featured. |
