"The Bride Wore Crutches"

We get a chase down Hollywood Boulevard with views of the Admiral Theatre and the Egyptian in Gregory Ratoff's comedy "The Bride Wore Crutches" (20th Century Fox, 1941). Our cub reporter is chasing some robbers after he witnessed a bank holdup. The only problem is that he lost the robbers and ended up chasing a police car.  

The film stars Lynne Roberts, Ted North, Edgar Kennedy, Robert Armstrong and Lionel Stander. The cinematography was by Charles G. Clarke.

See the pages about the Egyptian Theatre on the Los Angeles Theatres site for a history of this 1922 vintage movie palace along with hundreds of photos. The theatre is located at 6712 Hollywood Blvd., between McCadden Place and Las Palmas Ave.

After renovation in 1968 the Admiral became the Vine Theatre. It's at 6321 Hollywood Blvd., just east of Vine St. See the page for many photos.
