I know, I know. Not great quality. From THE WANDERING JEW (1933), directed by Maurice Elvey, who’s best known for THE CLAIRVOYANT (Claude Rains and Fay Wray) and a lively silent version of HINDLE WAKES, a much-filmed regional comedy.

What a shock, 'professional footballers cheat' sensation. In all my years of spectating and officiating I never suspected that such things took place. Just like police chief Captain Renault, played by Claude Rains, in the 1942 film classic Casablanca on visiting Rick's Café Américain, "I am shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on here".

Until roughly three years ago, I'd only seen three Robert Montgomery movies: MR. AND MRS. SMITH (1941), THEY WERE EXPENDABLE (1945), and HERE COMES MR. JORDAN, which I saw at L.A.'s Vagabond Theater as a teenager. Over the last three years I've seen 30 additional Montgomery movies, and he's become one of my favorite actors. Tonight I revisited HERE COMES MR. JORDAN for the first time in many years....
