Lum եւ Աբենները Եկեք ֆիլմ

- Ից 1931 մինչեւ 1954, Lum եւ Աբեններ occupied a spot among the most popular shows during the Old Time Radio era. Chester Lauck եւ Norris Goff ներկա էին համալսարանի Arkansas միասին. Lauck and Goff later developed their show Lum եւ Աբեններ based on life in Arkansas. The show struck a cord with many listeners.

My wife’s grandmother once told me that her dad told the kids not to run down the batteries in his radio because he wanted to listen to the 15 minute daily show when he got home from work. In the mid-1940s, Lum and Abner became a 30 minute show.

Lum եւ Աբեններ followed the adventures of Lum Edwards and Abner Peabody, the proprietors of the Jot ‘ Em Down Store. If Lum and Abner were out, which happened frequently, town people took what they needed and “jotted it down” on a pad supplied for the purpose. The stars and supporting characters were definitely stereotyped but the show was both clean and fun.

Մեջ 1940, RKO Pictures attempted to capitalize on the popularity of the show by producing a film based on the show. Lauck and Goff played Lum and Abner respectively. Dreaming Out Loud was released on September 30, 1940. The film must have been a success because RKO filmed five more films.

Dreaming Out Louis, The Bashful Bachelor (1942), So This is Washington (1943) իսկ Two Weeks to Live (1943) are available as a set.

Dreaming Out Loud runs 80 minutes and is not a typical “B” ֆիլմ. It is more of a hybrid, which would be shown first on a double bill but could be a feature film at some theaters.
