SING SISTER SING

Cinemavixion Review

This delightful 1935 short, "Sing Sister Sing," offers a charming glimpse into the comedic chemistry of Thelma Todd and Patsy Kelly. Directed by James Parrott, the film plunges into the chaos of cohabitation when Patsy moves into Thelma's residence hotel. The premise, centered on a humorous rule about singing away quarrels, sets the stage for escalating domestic squabbles, from closet space invasions to sleepwalking antics. Todd and Kelly deliver performances that are both spirited and endearing, perfectly capturing the exasperation and eventual resignation of their characters. While the plot is simple, the film's strength lies in its brisk pacing and the genuine comedic timing of its leads. It’s a testament to the enduring appeal of classic Hollywood shorts, proving that even a brief runtime can pack a significant comedic punch.
