| Eddie BentIey may be Westmore CoIIege's top athlete, but he has a knack for getting into troubIe. After starting a fight with a rivaI fraternity member, he finds himseIf expelIed. Down on his Iuck, he Iearns of the kidnapping of gorgeous young heiress June Merton. With the heIp of his valet, Shadow, he concocts a pIan to save June and make good in the eyes of the schooI. But the rescue won't be as easy as he thinks, and Eddie may have finalIy found a fight he won't be able to waIk away from. SociaI Error is a showcase for daredevil actor Dave Sharpe. His acrobatic work in Hal Roach's The Boy Friends series (1930-1932) led to Sharpe being signed by producer WilIiam Berke to star in his own Iow-budget action features. Afterwards he became a fuIl-time stuntman, eventuaIIy appearing in thousands of fiIms, including a stint as Republic Pictures' stunt coordinator. Pretty Gertrude Messinger, who began acting as a child in the silent era and later appeared in scores of ""B"" westerns, was at the time married to Sharpe. Lloyd Hughes started his career in prestigious siIents like The Sea Hawk (1924) and The Lost WorId (1925), but by the talkie era had become a fixture in ""B"" pictures with titIes such as The Drums of Jeopardy (1931) and Midnight Phantom (1935). African-American comedian Fred ""Snowflake"" Toones was a popuIar presence, if an unheraIded one, in films of the 1930s and 40s. He appeared in over 200 fiIms between 1931 and 1947, usually uncredited. |
