So's Your Aunt Emma!
Year: 1942
Plot: The film is a lighthearted comedy-crime blend centered on Emma Bates (ZaSu Pitts), a sweet, unassuming, middle-aged spinster from the country. She travels to the big city to watch a boxing match featuring Mickey O'Banion, the son of an old flame. At the fight, Emma unwittingly attracts the attention of a gangster, Gus Hammond, and his henchmen. Due to a remarkable coincidence, they mistake the innocent Emma for "Ma Parker," a notorious, tough-as-nails mob hit woman. When Hammond kidnaps Mickey, Emma teams up with a cynical but determined newspaper reporter, Terry Connors, who is investigating the corrupt boxing racket. Emma must use her new, false identity as the feared "Ma Parker" to infiltrate the criminal underworld and attempt a daring rescue of Mickey.
