Does anyone know who the TWO main actors were in The Bowery Boys?

Now..........can you name them off the top of your head without checking on the net? No peeking. Dig deep into your trivia filled minds and see if you can come up with their names. :coffee:

I believe it was The Eastside Kids..... And I think the movie was Angels with Dirty Faces starring Humphrey Bogart. HOWEVER, you did not tell us who played the two main characters of our gang.

Leo Gorcy and Huntz Hall.

Whad I win?

The movie was Dead End and they were the Dead End Kids. They were the East Side kiids sometime after that.

Of course I didn't tell, Kind of kills the thread in 2 posts if I do, doesn't it?

Was Leo Gorcey and Huntz Hall. They used to come on most early Saturday mornings long before cable and color TV.:laugh:

IIRC, some old guy whose name actually was Louie something or another.

Older, wiser and all that much better. :laugh2: Ever hear of reruns? :laugh2:

GOTCHA! You are not a true trivia nut.....LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL! He was Leo Gorsy Sr......TaDa......

"Age-enhanced"?

Yes and no. Apparently there's a hitch in YOUR get-a-long as well. Leo Gorcey's father's name was not Leo, so he wasn't a Sr.

However, we're talking two different things anyway. Louie was not in Dead End; which, is where my knowledge of them begins and ends. They were actually what they were labeled -- a gang of kids then, not a comedy act. Don't recall a whole bunch about them after they became a comedy act and adults. Just saw a movie or two of theirs over the years.

[Gunny]

Oh, and "Papa" Gorcey's name was "Bernard".

LOLOLOLOLOL! At least our brains are still vibrating and working. Altho', there appears to be times when they shut down.....:laugh2::laugh2:

The Bowery Boys were still playing boys when they were 50 years old.
