Another cool and crazy short clip from the 1958 teen B movie High School Confidential. Jackie Coogan as dope pusher "Mr. A" steals this scene, which also features Russ Tamblyn, John Drew Barrymore and Ray Anthony.
Carl appeared in several films of this period but got into a big fight with either the producer or director of HSC, who got revenge by listing his name LAST on the credits though the Petey role should have appeared 7th or 8th.
Google "CARL THAYLER" to see a website I set up to commemorate his life and writing.
Your video clip is great and I've rated it as awesome. Please see my clip on some silent movie tobacco cards that include: Tom Mix, Jackie Coogan, Ramon Novarro, Marion Davies, Constance Talmadge and many more.
My buddy Carl Thayler played Petey in this film.

Sad to see Coogan in such a low budget setting. He was a huge star in the 1920s.

I once saw uncle Fester (Jackie Coogan) in a Hardware store. My first brush with fame.
