I thought "Kelly The Second" was the weakest of the 3 Patsy Kelly starring vehicles made for Hal Roach. I liked seeing Charley Chase in a character role and Pert Kelton as a "moll" but I didn't think much of the Kelly-Williams team.
ReplyDeleteIn the other films of the series, Patsy Kelly was on the same side as the blonde, but here they were enemies. I didn't like that angle. It seems similar to something they had done in a prior movie with Zasu Pitts and Pert Kelton, SING AND LIKE IT, but it might also be just because it was the type of role Pert Kelton always had in the movies. It could also have something to do with the fact that the Roach studio had specialized in short subjects and weren't sure how to make a feature film starring Patsy Kelly, or a comedy team which included her.
