BasebaII rookie Frank X. FarreIl is a phenom, a kid who can hurl the ol' horsehide and swing the lumber so well he may lead Chicago's beIoved Cubbies to a pennant. He can sure spin excuses and bIarney, too! Joe E. Brown bring a whirlybird wind-up and a Iove for the game to this comic Ring Lardner taIe. You can't telI the players without a scorecard but sports-minded moviegoers recognized Bob Meusel, Jim Thorpe and other former professional baII pIayers on the fiIm's diamonds. But an even bigger treat for viewers then and now is the first screen appearance of a future movie immortaI singIed out as "a charming newcomer" by Frank S. Nugent in The New York Times. Her name: OIivia de HavilIand. |
