6/10
I heard it on the radio
26 July 2018
William Haines's breezy smart aleck personality carries Remote Control to the upward reaches of the laugh meter. Haines manages to sell himself to brother and sister Charles King and Mary Doran who own a local radio station as just the kind of announcer they need. Given some of the acts they have as regulars Haines is more like a ringmaster of the air.

One of them however is phony psychic John Miljan who along with his predictions from the beyond is giving out instructions to his gang of bank robbers. I think you can figure out where this one is going.

Remote Control takes full advantage of the Wlliam Haines persona and is a must for his fans. Too bad that within 5 years Haines would be gone from the screen.
