The Bashful Bachelor (1942) [Comedy]

Posted on by womo



The Bashful Bachelor is a 1942 American film directed by Malcolm St. Clair. The movie is about Lum Edwards, who’s annoyed with his partner in Pine Ridge’s Jot-’em-Down general store, Abner Peabody, because Abner has swapped their delivery car for a racehorse. Lum is also too timid to propose to Geraldine, so he involves Abner in a “rescue” effort which nearly gets both of them killed. They try again, and this time Geraldine is impressed. Lum writes a proposal note, but Abner, by mistake, delivers it to the Widder Abernathy, who has been ready to remarry for years. This puts Lum in a peck of trouble until the sheriff appears with the Widder’s long-gone and hiding husband.

  5. That was great so funny how have i not seen this one before now is mind boggling what a great actress ZaSa Pitts was and what other great actresses and actors. Thanks for posting for us to enjoy

  6. The Lum n Abner radio shows were pretty funny and not quite as corny as this. I enjoy watching because it's interesting to see what folks in wartime were paying to watch at the theaters back then. Thumbs up.

  8. Zasu Pitts was my friends mom. Both long since dead. In addition to her comic roles in movies she was the voice of Olive Oyl in the Popeye cartoons.
