Pardon Our Nerve

About This Movie

Pardon Our Nerve is a little gem from 1939 that really captures the quirky spirit of its time. The film follows two Big Town Girls who stumble into a wild scheme involving a boxer, a waiter, and some delightful chaos. The atmosphere is light and breezy with a nice blend of slapstick and witty dialogue. What stands out here is how the pacing keeps you engaged, with a series of comedic blunders that just escalate. The performances are charming, especially the waiter's transition from a reluctant participant to an accidental boxing sensation. It's not your typical boxing flick; it's more about the absurdities of life and the unexpected twists that come with it.

Pardon Our Nerve is not frequently discussed among collectors, which makes it an intriguing find. It has only seen limited releases over the years, often hidden within larger comedy collections. Its scarcity adds a layer of allure for those who appreciate offbeat narratives from the late '30s. There’s a certain charm to its practical effects and performances that can make it a curious addition to a well-rounded collection.
