Rough Romance
"Rough Romance" 1930 directed by A.F. Erickson and written by Kenneth B. Clarke, Elliott Lester, and Donald Davis for Fox Film Corporation George O'Brien, Helen Chandler, Antonio Moreno, Noel Francis, Eddie Borden, David Hartford, Roy Stewart Two lumberjacks cross with two men stealing pelts from other fur trappers. Good camerawork especially for an early sound film. O'Brien is extremely sexy and amiable in this, and Helen Chandler is excellent. Noel Francis is in the one song and dance number with O'Brien and Borden, which seemed to still be a prerequisite for films made that year prior to audiences becoming tired of song and dances, and she's vivacious and lovely. It's great this film survives and the grey market DVD-R I got years ago halts and jumps a bit so it was not smooth sailing to watch it but it deserves to be restored and given a 4k DVD/blu ray release with other early sound George O'Brien films.
