This movie looks really good for a 1933 film

Bit of trivia for you... Chester Morris had actually known Lionel Barrymore since he was 15 years old. Chester dropped out of school to play his first Broadway role in The Copperhead, which was also Lionel's breakthrough hit. (Chester played someone in his 30's!) #PublicHeroNumber1 #TCMParty
My god to be on the other side of that smile. #PublicHeroNumber1 #TCMParty
It's so cheap that MGM reused this scene where they put Chester Morris in solitary in The Big House (1930). So many of the prison sets are the same that it's hard to tell how much footage was reused or if they still had that set on the MGM lot 5 years later. #PublicHeroNumber1 #TCMParty
Uh-oh, I accidentally stayed up through all of #TooManyHusbands because it's too funny... Now Chester is going to air on TCM and I'm * really* not going to be able to turn the tv off! 😄 #PublicHeroNumber1 #TCMParty
Just over here liking these French posters I found for Public Hero Number 1 (1935)—or as they call it, 'Les hommes traqués' ("the hunted men"). I keep staring at the combination of colours in the one on the right.

Ok I'm popping back in to say one thing...
Get yourself someone who looks at you the way Chester Morris looks at Jean Arthur in #PublicHeroNumber1
...Sigh...
