All About Hash is a 1940 Our Gang short comedy film directed by Edward Cahn. It was the 189th Our Gang short (190th episode, 101st talking short, 102nd talking episode, and 21st MGM produced episode) that was released.
Premise[]
It seems that Mickey is upset over the fact that his parents spend every Monday night arguing. The reason: Mickey's mother invariably serves hash made from the Sunday-dinner leftovers, and Mickey's father hates hash. To teach the two adults a lesson, the Our Gang kids stage a skit on a local radio program, ending with a heartfelt plea by Mickey to stop the quarrelling.[1]
Notes[]
Janet Burston makes her Our Gang debut as a young radio contestant Mary Swivens singing "Tippi Tippi Tin".
