Featured review
Very cute and hilarious
If you like those old Edward G. Robinson movies that show a gangster with a heart of gold, check out A Gentleman at Heart starring Cesar Romero. It's absolutely hilarious. With a short running time, I could have easily watched another hour. Every minute is packed with surprising jokes, and the story is cute and clever.
Cesar is a bookie who likes to do things by the book. He never wants to get in trouble with the government, and he squares his debts. Milton Berle works in his office, and he's always getting into trouble and debt. Owing Cesar five thousand dollars, he's very glad to receive the news that his uncle has died and left him an inheritance. It's an art gallery, run by Carole Landis, and Cesar quickly takes control to turn a profit on the paintings.
A Gentleman at Heart is so funny; I couldn't stop laughing. Milton Berle is reminiscent of Oscar Levant, with wisecracks at every turn but without the depression. Everything out of his mouth made me forget my troubles and laugh. Cesar is gorgeous as usual, and very charming. It's no wonder Carole can't resist him, even though she starts the movie with a boyfriend.
Quick, funny, and with a host of familiar faces (J. Carrol Naish, Elisha Cook Jr., and Jerome Cowan), this oldie will brighten up your evening.
