The Adventurous Blonde (1937) was the third movie starring Glenda Farrell as feisty girl reporter Torchy Blane. Fast-paced light breezy B-movie fun with Torchy investigating a hoax murder that might not be a hoax. Farrell is a delight.

Re-watching Glenda Farrell as Torchy Blane in the first entry in the series, “Smart Blonde” (1937). Co-starring Barton MacLane. A fun, light murder mystery.

Seeing Joan Bennett play an enterprising newspaper gal for a portion of “Big Brown Eyes” (1936) brings to mind the prototypical film example of the female investigative reporter of the 1930s, Glenda Farrell. Here is Glenda in “Mystery of the Wax Museum” (1933) and as Torchy Blane in the series she did in the late 1930s with Barton MacLane.
