This is a fascinating selection of movie bloopers from 1936, worth watching even if you're not much of an old movie buff. While we're used to seeing clips of modern actors forgetting a line, breaking character and cracking up the crew, it's downright surreal to watch Edward G. Robinson drop the tough guy pose and make silly faces, or to hear some dignified actress of yesteryear blow a line and then swear like a sailor. (Although it's pretty endearing how a couple of them mutter "Aw, nuts!")

Who is he, this one who is called "Greg Stacy"?
Greg Stacy began the MONSTERS AND ROCKETS blog in April of 2009. Prior to that, he was editor of the popular sci-fi/horror news website DARKWOLDS.COM. He has also written for LA WEEKLY, OC WEEKLY, UTNE READER and LOS ANGELES CITYBEAT. He always feels weird writing about himself in the third person.
