Review of Small Talk

When younger brother Wheezer is adopted by society matron Helen Jerome Eddy, Mary Ann tracks him down along with the gang and creates havoc in the huge mansion, ultimately accidentally summoning the police and fire department. But pranksterous or not, the kids are adorable, and wealthy or not, Eddy's friends all have big hearts. Poor Farina is left behind until Eddy's maid sees her, rather predictable and a bit tacky in its setup. This is the very first "Our Gang" with sound, so of course, the sound recording is a bit crackling and the editing is somewhat slow. However, it's filled with humor and heart, the wide eyed innocence of the children and a few nice surprises.
