    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      This movie went into nationwide release with one reel missing. According to an article published in the 14 February 1990 issue of "The Hollywood Reporter", the movie was exhibited at the Plaza Theatre in New York City during its first run without showing its sixth reel and this occurred for 66 screenings. Some people have joked that nobody noticed.
    • Goofs
      "The film makes reference to famous police detective Dick Tracy, however the film is set in 1928 and the Dick Tracy comic wasn't released until 1931." The narrator is the one that mentions Dick Tracy. The narrator makes numerous statements indicating that he is recounting events that took place in the past, so the narrator mentioning Dick Tracy is not an anachronism.
    • Quotes
      • Basil Valentine: Did you ask the gentleman if he's finished?
      • Busboy: I read his mind, Fat Face. I'd read yours too, only I don't see so good in the dark.
