The Horn Blows at Midnight
The curfew blows at midnight but the laughs go on forever!!!
Directed by Raoul Walsh
Produced by Warner Bros. Pictures
A whimsical fantasy-comedy built on the absurd premise of an ordinary musician tasked with ending the world, played for laughs and warmth rather than cosmic dread.
A trumpet player in a radio orchestra falls asleep during a commercial and dreams he's Athanael, an angel deputized to blow the Last Trumpet at exactly midnight on Earth, thus marking the end of the world.
