Another Hidden Gem
"Ladies Love Danger" (1935) is another recently discovered hidden gem that I found on Zeus. It is a comedy murder mystery of the type that was very popular in the 1930's. It is brisk 69 minutes long and stars a very young Gilbert Roland. "Ladies..." was very enjoyable and kept me guessing to the end. I am an old movie buff who is getting bored with the so-called classic movie channels that keep recycling the same movies over and over. Don't get me wrong, there are movies that are worth re-watching but there are also many movies yet to be discovered. So, I can heartily recommend "Ladies..."and would encourage you to watch it and to also peruse the list of old movies available on Zeus. I have taken a chance on several movies and have discovered many hidden gems. I don't know where Zeus gets all of its movies but I am glad that they do!
