흥미로운 사실

Block Busters is a 1944 American comedy film directed by Wallace Fox and starring the East Side Kids. It was produced and released by Monogram Pictures.

Production

Monogram Pictures was a useful outlet for screen actors who wanted to produce their own films. Leo Gorcey, Buck Jones, Sidney Toler, Kay Francis, and Arthur Lake all had releasing arrangements with Monogram at one time or another. So did Lou Costello, who produced Monogram's musical comedy A WAVE, a WAC, and a Marine (released 1944), and was set to direct the East Side Kids in Block Busters under the pseudonym "Lucas Tello".

Block Busters was one of the few East Side Kids movies in which Gabriel Dell plays a member of the gang (as opposed to a character part or a villainous role). It is Bill Chaney's only film as an East Side Kid and the last film released in Harry Langdon's lifetime. There are specialty performances by bandleader Jimmie Noone and His Orchestra and exhibition dancers The Ashburns. Leo Gorcey's wife Kay Marvis has a supporting role as Irma Treadwell.

Although many of the East Side Kids pictures are in the public domain, Block Busters is not. Rights are currently held by Paramount Pictures.
