Billy, Huntz, Leo and other scrappy kids of slum-ridden Beale Street have gone and done it. They've won the Boys Week competition and the right to hold honorary offices as mayor, police chief and the like. With the help of an earnest deputy D.A., the gang aims to use their symbolic powers to free a wrongly jailed pal and bring down an arson racket that's blighting the neighborhood. The Dead End Kids return in a comedy-drama that revisits the cinematic neighborhood of Angels with Dirty Faces, although it is not strictly a sequel. Twenty-eight-year-old Ronald Reagan portrays the idealistic junior D.A., joining Ann Sheridan in the third of five feature pairings that would conclude with their landmark Kings Row.
From 1937 thru 1958, Hollywood made these movies, they are good wholesome family entertainment at about an hour each. They started making thses movies under the name " Little Tough Guys" then they changed the name to to " The Dead End Kids", In 1940 they again chaned the name to "East Side Kids". and finally in 1946 thru 1958 they were called the Bowery Boys. All but seven of the movies under the "East Side Kids" can be purchased. Amazon Prime list a few for viewing if your a Prime Member, and TCM has played a few, but unless you purchase your own copies, you will never see all 105 Movies. Four of the boys appeared in a Warner Brothers short film called " Swingtime in the Movies" it was more of a 3 second cameo and was not credited, That film is not available for purchased but can be viewed on line, In 1930 it was nominated for an oscar, but did not win. These are great entertainment, they can be funny, silly and sad all at the same time. Thew are great to watch, I am 68 and had never heard of these films until seeing one on Amazon Primve video service, my children and grandchildren lile them as well. The are well worth the cost, and will provide hours of entertainment. Hollywood makes nothing like them today.
