Mr. Lemon of Orange is a 1931 American Pre-Code comedy film directed by John G. Blystone and starring El Brendel, Fifi D'Orsay and Ruth Warren. It was produced and distributed by the Fox Film Corporation.
Silent McGee is a tough gangster, and Mr. Oscar Lemon is a mild-mannered Swede who coincidentally looks exactly like the gangster McGee. Silent McGee disguises himself as a Swedish immigrant while running from the law, causing Mr. Lemon to be mistaken for the wanted man. Julie LaRue is a comedic vamp who pursues the comparatively innocent Mr. Lemon.
The New York Times Mordaunt Hall, wrote at the time, "Mr. Brendel is mildly funny in some of the scenes, but a little of this Swedish-accented comedian goes a long way. Miss Dorsay gives a lively performance and during the proceedings she hazards a song titled 'My Racket Is You.' Mr. Collier is worthy of better lines than are given to him in this film."[1]
