old mother riley (1937)

"My motto is, never let your right hand know that you are left handed."
A wealthy businessman leaves his fortune to his family, but only on the stipulation that they take in the first person they see selling matches. Inevitably that person is Old Mother Riley (Arthur Lucan), and soon she and her daughter (Kitty McShane) are proving most unwelcome in the house. Until they help the family out when they turn detective and find the person stealing the family jewels...
First in a long running series of comedies, but one that have not stood the test of time.
