Old Gold Comedy Theatre - A Slight Case of Murder

Prohibition has ended and bootlegger Remy Marco (Edward G. Robinson) has made up his mind it is time to call it quits and become a law-abiding citizen.

Years pass and while both his legitimate brewery and his marriage are failing, four dead mobsters are discovered in his home in upstate New York.

Sadly, that is the least of his problems -- he is also dealing with a banker who is about to foreclose on his business and a daughter who has just announced that her very serious boyfriend is a state trooper!

Featuring: Edward G. Robinson, Allen Jenkins, Harold Lloyd

Original Air Date: April 22, 1945 on NBC
