Featured review
All these twenty-five and thirty year old actors are claiming to be college students, about to graduate. Flash has been putting himself through school by taking photographs, and now he wants a job in the real world. He hits up the local papers, but can only get a job by blackmailing the city editor with a photo of the owner's daughter in a compromising position. Hi-jinx follow,and he gets fired again. He'll have to photograph something big, like something that happens right in front of him just when he needs it. The picture and sound quality are pretty rough, but the story is pretty solid. Eric Linden was only in hollywood 10 years, but moved to stage after that. Co-star Patricia Mallory also only had ten years in hollywood, and sadly, her life was cut short due to cancer. Produced by the M&A Company, which seems to stand for Max and Arthur Alexander, for Grand National Pictures. Directed by Lynn Shores.. not a lot of info on him out there. didn't direct very long. Wonder if he's related to Del Lynn Shores, of Sordid Lives. maybe grandfather? who knows. another interesting tidbit... in the film, we see quick "footage" mockup of the Hindenburg disaster, (it's a film about photography, after all !) which had just happened in 1937. It's pretty good. aint no shakespeare.
