Gift of Gab (film)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gift of Gab is a black and white film which was released in 1934 by Universal Pictures. Edmund Lowe stars as a man with the "Gift of Gab" — he can sell anyone anything. The film costars Ruth Etting, Ethel Waters, Victor Moore, and Gloria Stuart, and featured Boris Karloff and Béla Lugosi.

Ruth Etting sings "Talking to Myself" and "Tomorrow, Who Cares?"

Originally the Three Stooges were signed to appear in the film, but at the last minute three look-a-like actors replaced them.

It was long thought to be a lost film, with no copies in existence, but a copy was found recently[citation needed].

The name seemingly is taken from the personal quality one is said to attain upon kissing the [1] Blarney Stone.
