Na Bráithre Ritz sa Gorilla (1939)

An Gorilla (1939) Tá greann-Mystery “B” scannán starring na Bráithre Ritz, Joseph Calleia, Bela Lugosi agus Lionell Atwill. Cuireadh an scannán ag Fichiú hAois Fox-roimh scor siad a dhéanamh “B” scannáin, the first film on a double bill.

Bhí na Bráithre Ritz gníomhach idir 1925 agus na 1960idí, when Al Ritz the oldest brother passed away. The brothers made 16 scannáin, all pretty much “B” scannáin, in the 1930s and early 1940s. After they quit making films, the brothers continued performing on stage and television. Al had a heart attack in 1965. While the remaining two brothers continued performing occasionally, it was said they never recovered from Al’s death.

Sa scannán seo, the Ritz Brothers play detectives, who have been called into protect a businessman threatened by “An Gorilla”. The gorilla is a mysterious criminal, who may or may not be controlling an actual ape. “B” film staples Lionel Atwill plays the businessman, Bela Lugosi plays the butler and Joseph Calleia portrays an insurance investigator. Ritheann an scannán faoi 65 minutes.

My favorite Ritz Brothers film is Kentucky Moonshine (1938). In that film, the Ritz Brothers play performers trying to get on the radio by imitating hillbillies on a country program. An Gorilla is the only Ritz Brothers offering that I have found so far.
