Moças do Século XX

"Ladies Crave Excitement" will never be mistaken for great art, but tiny little Mascot Pictures actually created a decent little B-movie with this picture. While it stars relatively unknowns, it more than makes up for it with action and a breezy script. Perhaps the average viewer won't think much of it, but fans of the Bs should be more than entertained by it.

The story is about the adventures of Don Phelan (Norman Foster). He has a job filming stuff for a small newsreel company, Union Newsreel, and the guy is a nut who seems more than willing to do just about anything to get a story. The problem is that his boss is a grouchy sort (what else is there in this sort of film?) and there are always baddies trying to stop him--such as mobsters who try to fix a horse race and escaped prisoners! In fact, the film has practically no let up...with lots of crazy adventures crammed into about an hour...an entertaining hour.
