Love this picture....instead of saying f.... you...the good guy said, “Oh, go jump on the lake.” Sorry they don’t make them like that anymore!
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you!
Golly!
he should have said " I GOT A SHERIFFS BADGE"
I hate swearing.
@@pinkbeautytwinkle I hate that swearing has been accepted as the new normal
My dad told me that he used to go downtown to shine shoes when he was 7 yrs old, earn a dime, give 5 cents to his mom and keep the other 5 cents to go to the movies. And these are the movies he watched, so thanks of reminding me of dear dad
Awesome story. Tfs
Nice memory. He s with you.
Such a heartwarming story! Thank you for sharing 😊
Beautiful memory ❤
Ahhhh Niiice, when my Mom was with us, she used to tell me that when she was the movies were a Dime & ya stayed literally all day, Now that's the Good Old Days💗💙🙌👍
Get a load of that ambulance! Lying low like an old Porsche. Don't you just love old movies, especially B&W ones. Nothing to distract from the melodrama. Easy to follow, life in the early 30 's , documentation. This is light entertainment now.
7:47 to 9:47 the lighting is exquisite.
Very important to the atmosphere of
these films. GREAT!
This movie was made four years after the Stock Market crash of October 29,1929. People jumping off buildings were people who" lost their wealth" via the crash,they lost" everything." Poor people had no reason" to panic,jump off buildings" they did not have anything to lose!
But everybody was in the market because of margin borrowing of 10:1, even the shoeshine boy which is why Joe Kennedy sold everything and saved the family fortune.
Many - down in the southern half of the
Appalachians - knew nothing about the
stock market CRASH or Depression until
it was all over.
They still had their gardens, farm animals,
made their own clothing/furniture/candles
et cetera .....and very little money.
Great movie!!!💖💖💖💖💖
Absolutely bizarre movie
the opening number is a banger! 🤠
Funny, she mispronounces Nevada. But she is supposed to be from there. Good movie, though.
고전찬미 감사합니다
I fell asleep a few times. Does anything really happen in this film?
A volcano eliminated about 40,000
students...and their Gummint loans
It always amazes me how these old films can tell a more believable story in less time and keep one's attention better than contemporary attempts of entertainment.
Hollywood has forgotten that a movie is supposed to tell a story, get the viewers emotionally involved w the characters and the action going on and move us all toward a moral conclusion. These days H is just out to replace stories w events where minor celebs appear in trendy places, wearing trendy clothes and sass each other w trendy patois and that is supposed to pass for cool. Big budgets allow H to fill up the screens w unreal events w vehicles, weapons and situations that suspend the viewers' belief, and that adrenalized thrill ride is supposed to get us to forget that there was no story to tell, no emotional lift and no satisfactory conclusion to their tale. Film has become just an adrenalized, fentanylized visual ejaculation w no morning after, leaving the viewer w that same empty feeling, that their event, was no night before, and was just a great waste of time..
I am having some trouble hearing the sound.
Yes
The minister who can get to the point, share pertinent and interesting informa-
tion and finish to an alert audience in
less than an hour...was successful.
The minister who drones on for twice as long and floats into uninteresting and
non-pertinent information to a sleepy,
bored audience...wasted everyone's time.
@@robertwalker5521 But both ministers are selling snake oil, so what's the difference?
I love these old movies with their clean jabs/jibes at each other - no need for vulgarity to make a good story. Thank you, Dear Pizza!♥
After about 1960, I remember hollywood 'justified' vulgarity as "realism". Later, as our society progressively deteriorated, it was just a natural symptom of our collapse. Any time I hear them use "G/D", I comment on it, and shut the movie down.
@@DavidRice111 I see it the same way (born in 1948) and remember well how things went in the sixties and on in today. I am right there with you on my reaction to the Lord's name being used in movies. As a matter of fact, all I ever watch now are these old movies on youtube and some historical documentaries.
PizzaFlix, your uploads have taken over my life these days. I'm home recovering from surgery, and I can't stop watching these movies. Murder on the Campus is a really good one.
Those old cars were so beautiful and elegant. Nowadays even a Maserati looks like a Toyota!
The playwright Arthur Miller grew up in New York City during that era. In his autobiography 'timebends' he speaks about the style/elegance and wide variety of those cars.
my father had to walk to school barefoot 1960 ireland. no electricity or hot water or none of that fancy shit.
One problem they were top-heavy. If too fast goin on a curve, they would roll. On the positive side, the metal was so thick that often the roof didn't collapse on the passengers when the cars rolled. In the 1950s and early 60s, the teenagers in my neighborhood all had 1940s cars and every Sunday on the basketball court in the park, one would come in, who had been drinkin over the weekend, and say that he rolled his car. Each time it was another teenager, not the same one as last week.
@@magicbulletdancers Haha flattened coca cola cans ja.
Yes, that may be, but when this was made older people were probably complaining cars weren’t full of as much personality and pep as horses, yet here were are.
It’s all relative, but the only thing that will always stay the same is people comparatively bitc.h.ing and wingeing. smfh
Amazing how well studied the forensics in this movie are and how clever the dialogue is, even the old inspector's who is no old fool.
"Mac, have you ever been in love ?"
"No, l´ve been a bartender all me life"
Another fun early 30's mystery. Thank you for loading these flicks.
I love these great oldies...its amazing that ppl still watch these timeless classics...
We watch the old ones cause the new ones suck.
This time period was in the middle of the Great Depression. So think twice when you think things were so wonderful. You couldn't just sit around playing on your cell phone all day.
Interesting story with lots of red herrings served with mystery sauce. :) A variation of the locked room murder trope. The only thing really "pre-code" is women having more than one male friend. (Oh, my!)
Love these old movies .the cars and clothes are great
Also, the home decor! I love art deco.
Great old movie, it truly is a very good way of showing the works of actual acting with out the nasty language that is used in the new movies put out these days
this was a very well done who-done-it, at least as good as today's. of course it has to be wrapped up at the end but all in all a very fun movie, decent script and ok acting.
Love these old movies,one thing in so many is how important the news papers of the time were!
More honest reporting
"What's that".
"I guess someone at the door".
Brilliant answer.
Another newspaper reporter in the wrong job solving murders which the police can't..
Thank you for sharing this very entertaining movie.
I very much like this old movie, even though it's not very believable that a police department would give an amateur so much leeway and cooperation.
This was fun! Well done and very interesting.❤️❣️
'not one of them, WORE, spectacles, FOR ANYTHING//'
This is sometime like a nancy drew-ish cozy murder. Back then i guess most murder movies were like that. ...just my speed.
Slow and easy.

Starring Charles Starrett, several years before he became "The Durango Kid".
Ladies dresses were gorgeous!
And long , loved their blond hair
While not a very expensive production, this plot is well developed. I recommend it.
Blackie Atwater, club owner, played by Maurice Black was Little Arnie Lorch in Little Caesar.
Wow that Charles Starrett that played the Times reporter , sure was frickin handsome, and his demeanour is awesome. Love him
Charlie Starrett, as my mom called him, was also big in westerns.
I figured it out when ... I liked it alot. I watch most movies before 1960. Very few since.
Great old flick, thanks for posting!
Love, love, love them!!! Keep them coming.
As soon as I heard the noise machine n the movie I knew it was the doctor.
Ohhh how I love these black and white mystery movies.
Yep , that was the clincher.
Was it normal for the police and reporters to be so close back then? Did anybody else notice the cop with the cigar sounds like Rodney Dangerfield? 😂
So close...they 'practically' needed a marriage license to keep it 'legal and proper, like'....Word.
Sounded just like Rodney
As a musician, it's amazing to hear the opening jazz theme. I'm a fan of both 1920's pop music (the first genre to be called 'Jazz'), _and_ the Swing version of jazz that followed in the 1930 & '40s. I love The Paul Whiteman Orchestra of the 1920s, which had some awesome sophisticated arrangements. Although that music was very syncopated, it was not 'swung' yet. In this movie, we're only 3 years into the '30s, and the jazz is completely swung! There was no period of transition; it's as if Swing was born in the early '30s, almost fully formed, right out of the gate.
So, Sergeant Lorrimer finds a gun in Lillian's apartment that may be a murder weapon, and just picks it up, obliterating any fingerprints that might be on it. Brilliant. That's Edward Van Sloan as Professor Hawley, who played Dr. Van Helsing in the 1931 version of Dracula with Bela Lugosi.
wonderful all the old movies, I sure do love them
thems was cars in the 1930's! like to have one like that now! but all they make are dumb clones.
The convertible with all the chrome wasn't exactly an everyman car in the early dirty thirties. But movies were sure an escape from reality for a couple of hours back then.
Light weight, short wheel based turtles
that roll over in a minor accident.
"He couldn't run an errand." Starrett funny!
Pretty good movie, but did the ending get chopped off?
Such a good film. Well worth an hour or so. Enjoy. August, 2023.
Those women look quite old to be students in a campus.
Monique Cardell. That's because they were
Students dressed better as well. Sports jackets were for sports: shooting or fishing. Nice dinnet and music date required a semi- formal tux and nice dress.
That was a great movie, I throughly enjoyed it. Thanks for the upload. Keep em comin. 😎👍👍👍
Such an excellent film great quality upload. Thank you.
A really good story portrayed by solid terrific just great acting! No silly swooning dames overly manly mannish men... That said, oh my she's beautiful and he beyond ❤️
I like this movie. Very good plot.
Excellent murder mystery!!!!
Pretty clever plot!
He couldn't run an errand
...priceless..
Great film joyed it very much that’s what I always say I don’t make them like that anymore
Great movie but it ended short would have liked to seen a little more of the story
At 44:29 Blackie asks "Did you arrange this little coup?" and pronounces the "p." (!!)
and, coupE would have really confused it
J. Farrell MacDonald always a favorite. Thanks for posting.
He was in MORE THAN 300 films . 'not
really 'type cast' but was in many as a
police or legal official ...but I saw him as a seaman, a bartender, a crook, etc
Great film
I am a big fan of Charles Starrett but why the copout ending? What happens to the oddball professor(Edward Van Sloan's character) at the end of the film? Can someone please explain this to me- Thanks!
NOTICE THE HAIRSTYLE OF THE SECRETARY THE SAME AS MISS CRABTREE OF OUR GANG SERIES! YES! IT'S 1933 WHEN THIS MOVIE AND HAL ROACH SERIES WERE MADE. HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF SO LET'S WAIT FOR THIS COIF COMES AROUND AGAIN!
Thank you for such a great movie. Love the black and whites.
i feel like number 5, the robot in the movie, short circuit, input input. i can't get enough of these old flicks and this one is beautiful
Don't forget swing music the cars men and women and kids knew how to act n if u had a job u were grateful n if u had any money it had value
Talking about the F word ….I hate😠… I always think what In the world would they said in movies now day if there was no such word as the F word …they wouldn’t have any thing to say .. So very sad 😢 . The old movies are grea
THE GREATEST GENERATION……..RESPECT !
The Durango Kid!!!! Enjoyed the film, thanks for posting
The character, Bill the newspaper man, is a most unlikable individual, a consummate smart-ass...or maybe the guy is just a bad actor.
Gave it a chance and ended up liking it 😁
Lily stayed sharp all through this movie...lol. They gave you fashion then.
Another excellent movie
Really clean copy thanks
Enjoyable old movie with primitive sound recording much in evidence.
It's quite easy to compare the "sound
differences' in the early thirties, mid
thirties and late thirties into Pearl Harbor era.
Ed Fulmer Sr: If you're going to whine, please don't do it on my time. The comment column doesn't exist for you alone. Really it doesn't. Now shut up and lay down by your dish.
I love these old movies, even when the script is a little thin, and the techniques less than what we have become used to (computers). The fatherly police captain, and the boyish paper man. But so help me, I cannot figure out why everyone always looks holder than me, and I old enough. The other questions I have go to the way, the way the directors just sort of knew what look the actor/ess had to pose to evoke their character -- like superior or sexy or monstrous, etc. given they were forging history. Neither had they a place to study, nor others to emulate -- they just had their genius. I am so moved.
Sherlock (Basil Rathbone) Watson (Nigel Bruce) and all the rest of the characters and their fictional portrayer. I'll bet no one ever asked the characters what they thought!
So, how come we are all so sure there isn't a REAL Sherlock to base his characterization on? I think this is just as valid a question, artistically, as much as our fellow humans hide behind the characterizations portrayed on the screen, or in the theatre? In other words, what's real?
I agree that cars are all beginning to look alike but bite your tongue saying a masserati looks like a Toyota I have had a Toyota and it was a piece of blank. Rhymes with hit. But I do love the old time cars
Enough twists and turns to keep it interesting, but pretty choppy plotwise (or perhaps bits and pieces are missing from this print). Charles Starrett had a long career, most notably as The Durango Kid. But the young man playing the frathouse manager has to be one of the worst actors on film - and I saw on IMDB that this film is his only credit.
Thoroughly enjoyed this movie, what a little gem
Love the cars.
Loved it x
It's so sad that only people who made it into the movies will have been left in people's memories. Otherwise, they would had to have been famous scientists and/military heroes, composers, comedians, artists or habituary criminals. Tough choices.
J.Farrell McDonald was the bar tender in My Darling Clementine.
There's another movie from the UK that went out under this title also, MURDER ON THE CAMPUS (1963) directed by Michael Winner who went on to do DEATH WISH. The victim falls from the roof to their death in that one too.

34:37-34:43 Shitty divorces???? I know it's pre code, but I've seen a lot of pre code movies, never with a word like that said in it.
Talking about the F word ….I hate😠… I always think what In the world would they said in movies now day if there was no such word as the F word …they wouldn’t have any thing to say .. So very sad 😢 . The old movies are great LOVE THE OLD MOVIES 🌹
I wonder if Charles Whitman saw this film and that it gave him the idea to use the clock tower at The University of Texas to kill 17 people in August of 1966...???
Great film, better than I expected. Lot's of suspense. WHAT ACTORS. I loved the fashions of that era.
Minute 25 - crinkle hair black and white blond says "My home is Nev-ah'da". She was never a resident of Nevada because we don't pronounce it that way.
Oh my, A gunshot is heard by scores of people. No one knows if someone is wounded. Let’s hang around til the cops come, when they do arrive, let’s all stand around chatting while someone finally sends for the door key. Good thing guy was dead, or he would have bled out!
Good one.
It surprises me
No-one ever comments on the clothes....!
😜
Look at the police Captains lovely coat...
that's the way cops open windows!
Guys please correct me if I'm wrong,but the opening scene,the guy that plays mikey,was he not in one of the 3 big gangster films from the early 30s?..
Little caesar...I think!🤔
milo lee Yes, I have Little Caesar with Edward G. Robinson and that guy played the one who tried to kill Rico and Rico paid him a visit, told him to get out of town...lol
@@laraycoleman8864 hi laray
Aha! Yes he has one of those faces that always seems to get his butt kicked!😁👍
@@laraycoleman8864 Little Caesar still packs a punch.
Edward Van Sloane was in Frankenstein and Dracula.
The movie would have been far better if Bill had been bumped off in the first 5 minutes...
Weirdest ending I’ve ever seen 😳
reporter turned detective solves impossible plot, foolish but fun
I noticed the beautiful clothes on the leads, especially. They were stunning, in my opinion. Some awkward scenes, at the beginning of the picture; but overall, an interesting one. I wonder if Charles Starrett became a big star! (based on this picture).
I checked. He later became a popular western star.
We have lost a lot of elegence even in everyday life.
Go to IMDb and his name.
Fantastic
Fast forward to the last four or five minutes. That will explain it all.
