Edward F. ClineHook Line and Sinker (1930)

Taken from IMDB:Two fast-talking insurance salesmen meet Mary, who is running away from her wealthy mother, and they agree to help her run a hotel that she owns. When they find out that the hotel is run down and nearly abandoned, they launch a phony PR campaign that presents the hotel as a resort favored by the rich. Their advertising succeeds too well, and many complications soon arise.

I'd never heard of Wheeler & Woolsley; they really are quite funny. Dialogue delivery & hilarious dictionary routine is priceless. I really enjoyed this movie. Quality & sound is exceptional for an almost 80 year old film. I wonder if there are more of their films available?

This is a good movie. The comedy team of Wheeler & Woolsey deserves to be remembered. Their dialogue is rapid fire with good timing and delivery. Good supporting actors round out the story. I downloaded the largest file and found it well worth the effort. For a 1930 sound movie I have no complaints. This is better than your average comedy of the period.

The MPG1 is only the first reel./ It stopped in the middle of the movie.
