About Kirsten Expertise I can answer most questions regarding films from the last seventy years. I am well-informed regarding film theory as well. My main focus is the films of the sixties and seventies, and I can answer most questions regarding these films, their stars, their directors, and even their producers. I can answer questions concerning the foreign films of the sixties and seventies as well as the pioneers of those films (i.e. Fellini, Truffaut, De Sica, Kurosawa, Renoir, Rosselini, etc.) I am also well-informed regarding the auteur method and those who popularized this film method in America (i.e. Warren Beatty, Dennis Hopper, John Cassavetes, etc.) I am a good source regarding Academy Awards history as well. I would also be a good source of information regarding films being interchangeable with war(especially Vietnam), certain political movements, as well as time periods and eras in general. I can recommend several movies for any war, era, or subject you are interested in. I am very familiar with the independant film movement, both the one that began in the late sixties and early seventies, as well as the slightly subtler one that is going on right now. I will extensively research every question I receive to make sure I provide you with a detailed, well-rounded answer.
Experience I am the daughter of two independant film-makers, both of whom earned degrees in film from UCLA. I have seen almost any film you can imagine, and have access to reviews of those that I haven't seen. I have taken several courses in film study, and plan to begin my major in film studies at Chapman University next year. I have countless books and documentaries regarding films, film history, and certain film movements.

Question I remember watching an OLD BLACK and WHITE movie that was really funny, but I only remember sparse details:
There was a man who's twin brother was murdered. The dead twin was able to possess his brother's body and use it to his advantage. While thst was going on the live brother knew but couldn't control his own body.
I remember them swinging from a light pole and singing.
I remember there was a girl> not sure if the live or dead bro's girlfriend
I remember the live bro running through a grocery or bakery in the middle of the night to get away from the murderers.
The murderers didn't know there were twins.
The dead twin's name is BUSTER.
Answer Hi Varsha, thank you for your question.
I apologize for the delay. This question required me to do a little bit of research, as I wasn't initially positive as to the answer.
I'm pretty close to positive that the film you're inquiring about is "Wonder Man." It was released in 1945 and starred Danny Kaye alongside Virginia Mayo.
I hope this helped. Best of luck in finding it, and happy holidays.
