wonderful! which movie is the clip with Warren William and Lyle Talbot from?

[TheProfaneAngel]

Thank you! That clip is from Three on a Match (1932).

[R2k443]

A great tribute to some great male actors who entertained people then and still do years after. Loved the song!

[VintageLady1980]

Oh, I love you Jay! haha! I never meet anyone who even knows who Chester Morris is and I adore that man! One of my favorites, for sure. I also enjoy Robert Montgomery and including clips of those two did make the video extra special! :)

[ClarityinWonderland]

That is well put together and the modern music sets it off too. Who is that song by?

[Jennytheshipper]

What was the warren william movie, with the white sweater?

[LINDALOVESFRANCHOT05]

Thanks for including Franchot Tone here ! The clip you used was from Midnight Mary and he was so handsome there and the music you chose was just Perfect.

[VintageLady1980]

Wow. I love this one! Really good job and I love that song by Anna Nalick. :) I think all these movies are favorites of mine, btw. I love the pre-codes! :)

Now we don't have movie codes ........and the stars do most of what used to be cut by the censors in public - you see it on the news all the time dope use, drunks, and just plain sleese...

I agree! Two often under rated and very unique personalities. I especially love the way Montgomery plays a hero or villain with equal ease and always finesse. And Morris almost eludes description; in a class of his own.
