About Don't Give Up
Buster West breezes into town, offends a couple of girls, and shows up at the DA's office -- the District Attorney is played by his father, John West -- hoping to be an investigator. He is assigned to trail a gangster's moll, but naturally mistakes Carol Wines, the DA's daughter for her. Some vigorous and funny situations ensue, amidst the not-so-funny snappy patter.
Directed by William Watson, Don't Give Up leans on a strong ensemble — Buster West, John West — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1930.
