A independent production trying their best to look big league with fancy shots and a couple of well known names. Should probable have invested a little more time on the script. The dialogue was drowsy taking this the opposite direction it should have been going. Instead of becoming a vibrant experience this turns quite dull. That doesn't stop Frankie and Johnnie (1936) from having it's moments of sweetness and tragedy. A intriguing story and a nice try, even if this was no masterpiece.
