Wayne Murder Case was originally released as ‘A Strange Adventure’ in 1932. It played at the Roseland Theatre, Omaha, NE on December 29, 1932 with short subject: Mystery Of Compartment C, with Walter Miller, Lita Cheveret and Allen Greer. Strange (Wayne) played at the Victory Theatre, Liverpool, UK on December 4, 1933. Strange (Wayne) was second feature to Silver Dollar, with Edward G. Robinson, Bebe Daniel’s at the Hyde Park Theatre, Everett Square Hyde Park/Boston February 18, 1933. Strange played at the Lyric Theatre, Hamilton Ontario, Canada April 19, 1933 (“A Monogram Mystery Melodrama”). Strange (Wayne) played at The Bijou Theatre, Springfield, MA as second feature to: Shall We Tell Our Children (AKA: What Price Innocence?) with Jean Harper, Minna Gombell and Betty Grable. A Strange Adventure/Wayne Murder Case May have been retitled years later to cash in on a 1935 mystery novelette of the same name by Arthur Hoerl who was the writer of this movie, and was syndicated to newspapers that year, as well as a real and notorious (sorry you’ll have to do your own search for the specifics) Wayne (for Ft. Wayne Indiana) Murder Case and trial in the News that ran from the mid thirties and was still in the news in 1950 - I can’t say if there was any relation of the Arthur Hoerl novelette, the real Wayne Murder Case trial and the film. The film A Strange Adventure, first appeared under the retitle of Wayne Murder Case about 1951 when it entered early television syndication (Monogram had Been releasing older films to TV since the early 1940’s in TV’s experimental days) and likely makes the PizzaFlix print a TV syndication print. Interestingly, A Strange Adventure had a small, minuscule release in the states, seemingly mostly in New England film exchanges in 1933. Its UK distributor had quite a lot of success with it the same year, and it played all over the UK, Scotland, Wales, in theatres nationwide. This film’s history needs its own detective! Thanks for posting this film - PizzaFlix rules!

My goodness, I don’t know how you could have discovered all of those interesting details about the history of this film. Detective, indeed! You certainly are a fine researcher!

Love the minimum dialog whodunnits. Even more so when there's a mystery man sneaking around wearing a Monk's cloak while performing, mmm, say, "'last rites". Thanks PF

The great trick of 30's movie sets is that if you make the walls tall enough, then you don't have to build a ceiling and at the same time make it look more lavish.

@leelarson107 2 ай бұрын

Good point. A lot of the earlier Laurel & Hardy films are set in high-ceilinged walls.

I love seeing Frye in the old movies. Notice at 4:23, the light switch is like the ones of today. I've seen lots of old movies where the light switch is either a 2-button plate or knife switch.

Can’t wait to watch Lucille Laverne in this! She was in Little Caesar with Edward G. Robinson, a laughing hag showing a little girl her guillotine necklace in A Tale of Two Cities, a cheerful pipe-smoking gal whose son died in battle in John Ford’s Pilgrimage, and the voice of the poison apple witch in Disney’s Snow White!

I literally saw an episode of Perry Mason with some similarities in the plot line even down to the antics with the safe, the two nephews, the fiancee and the crotchety old uncle. P.S. LOVE ME SOME DWIGHT FRYE!!!!!

I can also remember the story somewhat, but I’m sure I never watched this film. Maybe Perry Mason as well.

Thanks Craig🍕Fun movie. Took me years to find a decent print, but I should worked longer on the sound. I painstakingly removed many of the annoying pops, but I now learned a way to improve the hiss by using a low-pass filter 🙉😩

Check out the nephew at 10:57. He's wearing a two-button jacket with his suit. Proper fashion calls for the upper button to be closed and the lower one to be open............but he has it reversed, with the upper open and the lower one closed. Does he get dressed in the dark, or what?

Check out 'Plan Nine From Outer Space', 1959. Or anything with Marlon Brando, Henry Fonda, or Richard Widmark in it. By comparison, this film deserves a dozen Oscars.
