Let's Do Things

About This Movie

So, 'Let's Do Things' from 1931 is this quirky little comedy that features Zasu Pitts and Thelma Todd navigating a nightclub escapade with two rather clueless gents. You get this old-school vibe, the pacing is pretty relaxed, but the charm really comes through the performances. Zasu and Thelma shine with their comedic timing, and it’s a showcase of physical comedy that feels refreshingly spontaneous. The nightclub setting adds a delightful layer of atmosphere, you can almost hear the jazz and feel the energy of the era. It's not groundbreaking, but there's something about the chemistry and the way it captures the spirit of the time that makes it worth a watch.

The film has seen limited release in various formats over the years, mainly existing on hard-to-find prints and early video transfers. Its scarcity adds an interesting layer to its collectible value. Enthusiasts of early talkies and comedy duos often seek it out for its charming performances and the snapshot of 1930s nightlife it provides, making it a noteworthy piece for those deeply invested in this era of cinema.
