| User ReviewRadio Nnot too shabby a movie. It is the best of the Warner Brothers bunch. They slowly get goofier and goofier as they progress. Worth watching when it pops up on TCM. Be nice to have the four Warren William 'Perry Mason' movies in a DVD set. |
| User ReviewGreg Wgood murder mystery b movie stuff with lawyer perry mason but don't expect raymond burr |
| User ReviewBrian BThe first of six Perry Mason movies released by Warner Bros. Warren William plays the attorney with panache and is more restrained here than the character would become in latter entries. Mason's assistant Della Street is essayed by Helen Trenholme, a beautiful and talented actress who has good chemistry with William, but she inexplicably left the film business after making this and one other film in 1934. Mary Astor portrays a femme fatale years before perfecting the role in "The Maltese Falcon." The pacing suffers from some novel like exposition explaining the relationships and crimes. The script tries to stuff too much into the brisk 70 minute running time. |
