The only remaining copy of this film is jumpy and full of splices — if there is a legit purpose for AI, it could be used to repair films like this. It was interesting because it was Spencer Tracy and Humphrey Bogart's first film, and you can see hints of their talent. The story itself is kinda fun, and there are some legitimate laughs along the way. For example, when Louis and Dan go to Steve's home, his mother invites them to dinner, not knowing they're escaped convicts. Dan, who is a near-moron, knows all the rules of etiquette, jumping up to hold the chair for Steve's mother and sister, etc. Louis just stares, astounded. It's played subtly and it's hilarious. It was a very early talkie, and some scenes were done in pantomime like a silent film, and there were even a couple intertitle cards along the way.
