Monday movie

Jack Benny – an angel who has been sent to earth to sound the last trump – gets seriously sidetracked in the 1945 comedy/fantasy, The Horn Blows at Midnight.



UPDATE: By the way, I'd be extremely grateful to anyone who could identify the opening tune of this video. It's hot, but has almost a wistful quality to it; in any event, it appeals to me strongly(or, rather, "it sends me, Jackson!") Perhaps it was just incidental music composed for the movie, but it sounds to me more like some kind of actual pop tune from the period.

    Jack looks like he really could be 39.

    Possibly an old Western song about making moonshine, "Homebrew on the Range".

    Cheers
