The always-delightful Edna May Oliver stars as old maid schoolteacher Hildegarde Withers in Murder on a Honeymoon, also starring James Gleason, Leo G. Carroll, and Lola Lane.
In this series entry, Hildegarde is on a seaplane en route to Catalina when there's a murder. Naturally all of the passengers are suspect.
It's kind of convoluted, but no one cares. Oliver (who is only 52 at the time of this filming) is her usual scene-stealing self as she tries to solve the mystery and trades some snappy dialogue with Detective Piper (James Gleason).
I love seeing the planes in these old films.
