Wiki.
Meet Boston Blackie is a 1941 crime film starring Chester Morris as Boston Blackie, a notorious, but honorable jewel thief. Although the character had been the hero of a number of silent films, this was the first talking picture. It proved popular enough for Columbia Pictures to produce a total of 14 B movies, all starring Morris.Blackie's sidekick, a diminutive underworld type nicknamed The Runt, was slated for George E. Stone. Stone could not appear in the film, having contracted a virus, and he was replaced by Charles Wagenheim. Stone joined the series in the second film and stayed until 1948, when the series lapsed. (It was revived for one last film in 1949 with Morris, and sidekick Sid Tomack playing "Shorty.")
