Maid in Hollywood (1934) Thelma Todd - Patsy Kelly Comedy Short

[@j.w.2391]

At the risk of sounding "morbid", just think that 89 yrs ago around this Xmas season the Coroner's Inquest into Thelma murder was kicking into full swing. Gone now for 9 decades, The Ice Cream Blonde and her comic artistry are kept "immortal" through these little comedies. RIP dear Thelma.

@@j.w.2391 You say she was murdered? Really? What's the story (I'm a young 74 whippersnapper). 🤔😯😊

​@@j.w.2391Never heard of her or her story. Grew up overseas. Mea culpa.

[@larryaldrich4351]

She was murdered for not playing ball with the west coast mob and the cops buried the case and covered it up.

Love, Pat Kelly character and all! She always makes me laugh. Thank you so much.

[@TheSprocketVault]

Our pleasure!

The sneezing scene gets a 9/10!

[@RetiredSchoolCook]

Always good to watch a Thelma Todd film . ❤👍Thank you

She was better paired with Zasu Pitts, I think. I didn't care much for Patsy. I enjoyed the 19:34 Billy Gilbert custom sneezing demonstration, though

@@DaveDunning-st1hh Patsy was a better match for Thelma Todd. Their films were, overall, better than the shorts with ZaSu Pitts and Pitts was excellent!

[@DaveDunning-st1hh]

I never argue over matters of pure opinion, my friend. I will seek out more of Patsy on your recommendation. Thnx

[@nonenoneonenonenone]

Incredibly funny, yet so true-to-life!

[@MaritzaAgosto-e1g]

Thelma Todd was a great actress .

[@TheSpiralnotebook]

Gosh, she looks SO SAD at the beginning, seems like she misses Zasu....

[@JoeLibby]

Good to see Hal Roach regulars Harry Bernard, James C. Morton, Charlie Hall, and Charley Rogers in this! Thank you!!

[@garryferrington811]

Why weren't these on television when I was a kid? Roach could have packaged these with Laurel and Hardy. They're really funny.

An really old movie. Thelma Todd ❤

[@jamesmentzer]

Groucho was in love with Thelma Todd

[@matthewseamans6830]

Patsy Kelly also appeared in Rosemary's Baby.

[@nightstalkerck]

It's strange seeing Patsy Kelly so young and thin, I only know her later work when she was older.

[@rossdelain1645]

Is that camera lens really blurry at 3:23 or am I just drunk??
