Roll ending credits!  Thank you all for your listening ears! It means a lot! 

This pre-code film is delighhtfully comical while being brutally honest about the corrupt, incestous relationship between, big business, pharmacy, politics, education and commercialism.  John Barrymore gives one his best performances as the naiive Professor Topaze who finds himself a patsy to fraud most foul. This "can't-believe-it-got-made-movie" also stars Myrna Loy as the Honey Trap with a heart as golden as her honey.  Not to be missed or underestimated, "Topaze". Facebook YouTube

Rod Steiger co-stars in another masterpiece of a movie to cure race relations. He and fellow acting icon, Sydney "They call me, Mr. Tibbs!" Poitier, put on an acting clinic as they leave audiences rivoted to their seats and jumping for joy from same said seats with this unfortunate, but poignant slice of the U.S.'s civil rights era.

Paul Henreid co-stars as her husband and the hope of liberty and freedom, Laszlo.  Also starring Claude Rains as the unapologetically opportunistic, lascivious French Captain Renault!    YouTube Facebook
