I have had that movie for close to 20 years, a fun movie for it's time. Little Frankie Darro, is my favorite Character. However, nothing matches The Big Wheel, or To Please A Lady, made 15 years later.

 

Great movie....have it on dvd. 30s-40s movies full of fast talking slang .

 

Frankie Darro was an actor/ stuntman and most of the stunts were arranged by the great Yakima Canutt of " Stagecoach" fame. Great little serial!

 

Yakima also coordinated the chariot race in Ben Hur, along with his son, I believe.

 

Loved it,saw them in the 1950s on TV sat. kids shows use them as fillers.
