An opening night of a new musical leads to real behind-the-scenes drama when the play’s leading lady is the target of a brutal murder plot. Producer Jack Ellery hires detective Bill Murdock to solve the crime and chase down a killer while staying out of the spotlight.
This four-disc collection presents a diverse sampling of 200 shorts—jazz, country-western, folk, and the boogie woogie roots of rock ’n’ roll—newly restored from 35mm and 16mm materials preserved by the Library of Congress and other archives.
