Finally, a plucky reporter who's not afraid to say, "Damn the journalistic ethics, full speed ahead!"
The Adventurous Blonde is a 1937 film directed by Frank McDonald, featuring Glenda Farrell, Barton MacLane, and Tom Kennedy. It's the third film in the Torchy Blane series.
Farrell stars as Blane, a glamorous, golden-haired gal with a gift for gab and getting scoops through her guy, Detective MacBride. But the rest of the fourth estate isn't too happy with her success. A group of mischievous journos puts together a plot to embarrass Ms. Blane and drive her from the police beat for good. The only problem with the hoax? The scheme to trick Blane and MacBride into investigating a fake murder ends up producing a real-life, real-dead corpse.
What ensues is a mystery that manages to be both fun and mind-bogglingly dumb. Listen to Áine and Kevin break news on the name "Mugsy," a hypothetical clash of retail titans, Marlon Bundo, and our new hipster startup, the Brooklyn Telegraph Company.
