I recommend April 17's NEWS HOUNDS (1947), which costars Christine McIntyre and Nita Bieber (RHYTHM AND WEEP).
Interesting trivia...
After the "Gower Gulch" buildings that housed the shorts dept. were condemned/torn down in the mid-1940s, Columbia's Bs and shorts frequently leased soundstage space at independent studios in the Hollywood area, e.g., Darmour Studios on Santa Monica Blvd, where the sets for MALICE IN THE PALACE were. Columbia also rented space at Monogram, and according to Nita Bieber and Gloria Patrice, that is where they filmed the rooftop scenes for RHYTHM AND WEEP (1946). Monogram was a few blocks west of Columbia, on Sunset Blvd.
While at Monogram working on RHYTHM, Nita caught Leo Gorcey's eye, and he arranged a part for her in NEWS HOUNDS. Nita said it was originally a small part, but Leo liked her and had the part changed to give her more camera time.
Watching the Bowery Boys films, you will see a lot of actors from the Stooges films... Ralph Dunn, Tom Kennedy, Ben Welden, Dick Wessel, John Hamilton, Gene Roth, Murray Alper, Emil Sitka, and more. The usual group of day players, who went from studio-to-studio on a daily basis, picking up work wherever they could.
