Always Kickin'

About This Movie

Always Kickin' is one of those early 30s comedies that captures the charm of college life and sports in a rather simple, yet engaging way. The pacing feels somewhat laid-back, which adds to the overall atmosphere of nostalgia. The film's theme of second chances resonates, especially with the idea of a misguided kick leading to redemption on the field. The performances, while not from the likes of big names, bring a genuine charm that makes the whole experience enjoyable. It’s an interesting watch if you appreciate the quirks of early sound films and how they tackled sports narratives, albeit in a lighthearted way.

Always Kickin' is relatively obscure in the realm of early 1930s comedies, making it a bit of a hidden treasure for collectors of that era. While it hasn't received much mainstream attention, its charm and simple narrative attract those who appreciate vintage sports comedies. Finding a good copy can be challenging, as many prints have faded over time, enhancing its scarcity and desirability among collectors keen on films that offer a glimpse into the lighter side of early American cinema.
