ALL OVER TOWN

Cinemavixion Review

James W. Horne's "All Over Town" from 1937 offers a glimpse into early cinematic comedy, centering on the misguided efforts of two performers to mount a show in a purportedly haunted theater. While the local description succinctly captures the premise, the external data enriches this with the names of its stars, Ole Olsen and Chic Johnson, and a runtime of 62 minutes. The film's plot, which hinges on the superstition surrounding the theater, provides a framework for comedic hijinks. Despite a modest IMDb rating of 5.0, "All Over Town" stands as a testament to the era's comedic sensibilities, inviting viewers to experience a piece of film history, even if its jinxed setting ultimately proves more of a narrative device than a genuine obstacle.
