Rod Steiger, was a truly superb performer, he always seemed to take on difficult roles, that would have been complex and demanding for any actor. Rod took a role with ease regardless of the challenges he might face, but I feel that Rod is largely forgotten now, like so many other great actors of so many years ago. Thanks Rod for the memories.........
So different to his role in 'In the Heat of the Night' but I have to admit I haven't seen that many of his movies but yeah, great casting, great actor and a great movie released in the year of my birth. One of the most enjoyable movies I have watched during this Covid sitout.
The other thing that I realised after the movie had ended was that there were no winners in the movie, maybe the Mexican police chief with his 50% share of the reward, but Steiger's character died as did Scarfe. Dolores the dog, poor thing lost two masters, Scotland Yard didn't get 'their man', that's no win. Mrs. Scarfe the widow had an unknown future. The American truck driver didn't get his reward and lost again trying to return Steiger's character across the bridge. Graham Greene was a very smart writer.
@@terrythekittieful I am celebrating my birthday today , 1957 too
@@christineaygin6701 Happy Birthday Christine, exactly 4 months younger than me,..what an age to be born in, all that great music and great movies ahead of us in the first twenty years of our life. Not so keen about the limited time ahead of me at least but hey, life's a journey. Knock yourself out tonight in whatever part of the world you happen to be living in.
@@terrythekittieful thank you , so kind , yes we had the last of the best years
@@christineaygin6701 When I was a student in France I visited Reims Cathedral many times and was always inspired by the famous smiling angel. I still have the poster I made of it . For me it says, "Fortitudini! Optimum es tamen venire!" Happy now and may your God be with you!
At the moment you see Rod Steiger on the screen he caught your attention at once and then keep it to the end. The man has inexplicable magnetism
I think his finest role was as Napoleon in "Waterloo."
@@Gwaithmir Don't overlook The Pawnbroker.
@@HansDelbruck53 He was good in that film, but the plot and ending left me depressed. I'm not sure why.
Rod Steiger has to be one of the best screen actors ever.
I thought Mr. Steiger was excellent in the Heat of the Night but this movie trumps his proformace in that movie. I have just started to respect these old movies because they were made with people who had exceptionally rare talent. Ms. K. Hepburn, Mr.S Tracey and the list goes on and on. Thank you Retro for a wonderful movie ❤❤❤❤❤.
The silent and faithful Dolores is hauntingly touching. Such an original and strangely moving performance.
Such a good film. Rod and the dog were brilliant. Happy to give it a strong recommendation. England, March, 2024.
Rod Steiger ... what a performer. Despite his ordinary appearance, whenever he appears in a film he is riveting and commands the screen. The consummate actor.
Absolutely intense …. Guy .. The pawnbroker . In the heat of the night . Boston strangler . The list goes on a great Jewish actor .
Having an ordinary appearance has never been a drawback for actors in English made films it seems to me. It may in fact be an advantage to some unsurprisingly since the majority of the population is of ordinary appearance.Though Hollywood seems frequently to see a handsome or beautiful face as a necessity in an actor, English film makers seem generally to cast according to acting skill.
Yeah I am a big fan too
Yes , he deserves ..,..,…!
Wasn't he the brother, and manager, of Brando's boxer in "on the waterfront"?
I can watch Rod Steiger in anything. One of the best actors ever. Thanks for the upload.
Steiger overacts most of the time like in Marty. But he was good in this movie
Haven't seen him in Marty,but I have the Ernest Borgnine film,which is a classic.@@user-rd3we2mt9q
A film without a love interest sustained by an incredible performance on the part of Rod Steiger and a dog called Dolores. Both deserved to win an Oscar for their talent! Gripping to the end......
Yes gripping. I agree
So many facinating twists
Wrong, the love interest was Dolores.
Many unbelievable twists.....
@@davewolfy2906 😂😘😢
Steiger deserved an Oscar for his performance on this movie. He would win his statue 10 years later for "In the heat of the night (1967). This is another fine upload by Retrospective. Thank you for sharing.
Plus he was great in patterns
Brilliant performance from Rod Steiger. I saw the movie again after 60 years. I found this gem in the you tube mine
@@ozdavemcgee2079 thanks for this reference i didn't know Can't get enough of Steiger. Like oxygen. easily taken for granted by people who don't think about the obvious pluses in life.
The Pawnbroker ?? Yes, he could stray into Ham territory .And he often did ! But at his best he was one of the greats ...unique .!
I spent 3mths in Tijuana and was mugged , robbed and lived rough until I got some money from the UK. The Mexicans thought I was a Gringo ( American ) initially and I was treated like Steiger , until they realised I was a Welsh person. They were lovely to me after that !. I know what isolation in a hostile environment means. Rod and Dolores summed this up !!. Fabulous fil m. Thanks guys. Dave
A true gem. A movie plot with more twists than you can count and a strong moral message, and two sensational acting performances: Rod Steiger and Dolores the Dog.
Torment is bad enough. Invasive torment is quite another. One is in the shadow of Hitchcock then. Only one man can rescue from thence.
Mel Brooks.
In my wildest, i imagine a movie with movies within: that Graham Greene's "Our Man In Havana" is inadvertently licensed duplicately, that unknownst to one another the Greene giant's Cold War satire is being put to silver screen simultaneously by Alfred the Great and Blazing Brooks. I do believe quite a picture could be made with those elements.
Who to direct?
@@angelsaltamontes7336 : Delores will direct.
@@angelsaltamontes7336the dog ❤
Dolores gave a great performance. Such pathos at the end, helplessly laying there, having lost another friend.
🥲
If Rod Steiger's in it, you know it's going to be good. I've never seen him in a dud movie.
Thanks for the top quality *Retro!*
Specialist? 😂
Anything based on a Graham Greene story is bound to be good.
Such an excellent film with so many twists and turns. Dolores absolutely captured my heart. This film is definitely a tragedy. 😢
That doggie is one adorable mutt!! She stole the show!!! Bless her!! Sad ending though!
Indeed ! Guess it's true: EVERY DOG HAS HIS DAY !! :-)
I saw this film when I was a child. I thought Rod Steiger was the best actor ever, upon seeing this.
Rod Steger is superb in this movie, his German accent and his mannerisms are excellent in my opinion, I can understand why he had disputes with the director with his role of his visions of how he should play the part certainly worked for me, an actor of his calibre is strongly missed today.
wow that was one run on sentence!
Rod Steiger: The Chameleon. To think that the guy was only thirty-two in 1957 when he did this film!
Wow 32
I felt sorry for the dog, no matter what, he just ended up in the wrong hands. He did not get a break The dog deserves an Oscar.
Rod Steiger was a consummate pro. Sydney Poitier claimed doing a scene with him was a master class in acting. Great script!
Oh so sad ending. The loyal dog. Rod Steiger did such an excellent job in this role. Thank you for the upload.
Rod Steiger was already that good in the fifties ? My goodness what a champ - this is an awesome performance.
he did ON THE WATERFRONT with Marlon Brando in 1950.
The dog dissevers an oscar, Thanks for sharing.
@@michelled.8593 Too many teachers are hire.
@randall2020 Actually, I'm not into religion at all. When I used the word pray, it was simply a more polite, heartfelt word than pity. I pity you.
@randall2020 yes
@randall2020 Yes, you figure it out. It is clear. It was inspired by your own words. However, you just rant with hatred, without thought. I will not grant you information, that you yourself inspired. I am sitting here now, with a capuchino, in a lovely home. I have a wonderful career. I have two wonderful children, my daughter is studying chemistry in fact, she is involved in the current pandemic. My son, is studying anthropology. WHAT are YOUR accomplishments but to inspire hate and cruelty towards good people? I truly started this banter for my own admitted sick entertainment. To pick on you for being such a dolt. However, it has evolved into something that I am deeply sorry for. Picking on such a pitiful person as yourself.
You need to consider, perhaps you are wrong. WRONG in everything you think of or inspire. PLEASE, do something nice for another as a start. You might find it rewarding. Perhaps maybe, start with your own self. Truly, I wish you good mental health and a desire to share a GOOD word for another. M
@randall2020 LOLOLoll....Don't you understand? You are a fool. Your responses are a complete desperation to 'prove'' yourself more than you actually are. In truth, I welcome your responses. They only show how you are clawing desperately, to make a point that is incredibly invalid. LOLOL. PLEASE, continue.
I'm going out onto my patio now, enjoying a hot cup of cocoa. I'm looking at my wonderful home and appreciating my wonderful son and daughter. What are YOU up to?
Dolores in Spanish means "sorrows" or "pain". Perfectly describes this movie.
Wow, he finally realized what a good and loyal dog Dolores is.
Touching and impressive performance by the dog. Rod Steiger is great too .
Bernard Lee showed up at the end of Beat The Devil to arrest Peter Lorre and three other outstanding co-star bad/funny guys. B.L.'s resolute persona is put to a lot more work in this flick ... which is quite the drama; demonstrates a man's conniving heart changed by a dog's devotion. Good show Rod Steiger; especially for reminding us to be kind to animals. Thank you Retro.
Rod was an amazing Napoleon and his illustrated man was way ahead of that time.
You mean the Ray Bradbury story? Was that made into a movie?
Dolores, there till the end. brought a tear to my eye.
Dolores was the only one who stuck by this mans side. Great Movie thank you!
He risked everything for wealth....but in the end, what mattered most was his dog.
Soul is everything.
And, the dog wasn't really his. Poor dog, so sad for him.😢🐕🐾
You're right. Well said
I think it was because the dog, Delores, needed him
Damn, this movie truly is a gem. As soon as I knew that this was based on a Graham Greene story then how can anything gi wrong. Superbly directed, brilliantly acted, and an ending I wasn't expecting. The music was, unfortunately, an invasive torment in some scenes.
Scotland yard didn't do it right in the end and screwed up!
outdated orchestration!
agree about the music being tortuous.
It's a 60+ year old flick moron
yeh. the music really put a dent in the film. but just top notch performers!
Rod Steiger had an intensity that came from deep within him. He reminds me of the actor Gene Hackman who also brought a lot of intensity to whatever character he was playing. I rememberr Rod Steiger from way back in the late 1950's when I saw the great musical Oklahoma!, and he played a farm hand who went nuts when the pretty farm girl didn't return his feelings that he had for her.
Rod Steiger is second to none! He is the best!
My GOD!!! Rod has GOT to be one of the most accomplished actors I have ever seen in action on the silver screen, hands down!!! And Period!!! Crazy versatility!!!
The man is just down right phenomenal!!! Truly a gifted person indeed!
I saw on TCM that Glenn ford made fun of him (not to his face) about his "method" when they were both in a Western. Glenn Ford sounds like a pushy egotist who considered himself a movie star, a dreamboat (he was NOT), and as gifted an actor as Lawrence Olivier except better.
❤️❤️❤️
Also great in the Pawnbroker!
Mr Lovejoy!
Well said. I absolutely agree.
Rod Steiger is one the finest actors in film history
Couldn’t disagree more, Steiger is a one horse actor he ALWAYS PLAYS THE SAME PART.
He plays a mean, volatile, PSYCHO.
@@brit1066 Untrue. He's a fantastic actor, and as real as they come. Hennesey, In the Heat of the Night, the Pawnbroker, On the Waterfront, The Sargeant, his part in the Columbo episode -- he's fantastic in everything he does. In a league with Anthony Hopkins.
Helen Lauer He’s is a COMPETENT actor but very limited in his scope. Look at the movies he made, like this one he played a mean, unstable PSYCHO and he was good at that.
In The Heat of the Night he was almost human it was one of his better performances, even in Oklahoma he played Judd a mean, unstable loner that suited my description of him.
He is a VERY LONG WAY from your claim of one of the finest actors in movies.
Oh I just remembered in The Comancheros he once again played a PSYCHO, and then there was his performance as Napoleon who was a text book example of an unstable PSYCHO. Rod was perfect for the part but once again it confirmed that he was a one horse actor.
A GREAT actor? NO, competent yes.
Helen Lauer You CANNOT compare him with the GREAT ACTORS, Henry Fonda, Gregory Peck, Spencer Tracey, Jimmy Stewart, Laurence Olivier in Wuthering Heights, Peter O’Toole in Lawrence of Arabia, and perhaps the finest of all Paul Scofield in A Man for all Seasons.
Now those ARE some of the FINEST actor of all.
Steiger is a LONG WAY FROM THEM.
@@brit1066 nah,nah,no. Tom Cruise is competent. You want over rated, there's your over rated. Maybe our boy Kiefer Sutherland is competent, I would like to say John Ruffalo is more than competent but that's just cuz he's so goddamned sexy I can't sit still. Uh, what's his name Richard Gere is SUPER competent. But Steiger is not in that league, he's way higher up there, hanging just below Brando. He's so damned intense, how can you call that competent. He owns you when he's working. Maybe this is a generational thing. I'm an old bird.
No Umberto D but a heartbreaking tale about a man and the only friend he has. Steiger gives a bravura performance as well.
Wow wow wow. Delores had me in tears, and Steiger was SUPERB.
Steiger should have been nominated for this movie.
Agree!
amen. Maybe his best performance
We could suggest a better reward. Like wakin up.Yeah fantasy is good till you believe it. The wonderful cops/courts and the bad criminals.Go on. Just ignore what follows (as usual)..--
9.3.20 UK.Not spell or proof checked. Wonder why people wanna sit watching corruption,violence,smarm and carefully assembled propaganda when the scams are goin on all round the viewers. We refer,in UK to- corruption in- HM courts. HM Coroners. HM Police. HM Parliament. HM (and private) Education. HM Universities. HM Prisons. The media incl - BBC. Mirror Group.CH4. Guardian.Mail. Local Press.. The Charities and charity commission board. Sport. Health.EEC. Acting. How do we know that? We spent 12 yrs traipsing London streets knocking on doors and approaching joe public on behalf of victims, some victims had been tortured by establ in uk. We nearly forgot- at least three political orgs. orgs who admitted to us the intention to engage in corruption. 1000pp. We are experiencing Police attacks. They are advising us that the Religions and Local govt want 7us silenced. They also advised that the eidence which we gathered can never be put into hands of public. They also claim that the dont read evidence. Here is a quote by Local Govt- "We dont care about the public so you had better watch out". Dozens more quotes incl the "Old Bailey" admitting we are right and the Shrink (at the hospital that we contacted after their clients started coming to us for help) said this- "Competence has no value" Her staff said this- "She has killed people and the local HM Courts. Charities. Coroner. Local govt. Press have covered it up". We started to pursue the culprit and suddenly she was moved to Broadmore and we could not get into there but could get into High Secuity Prisons. When we turned up at the HM Coroner in Westminster they were hiding behind curtains and some ran out withy the police and ran towards Victoria Station. We then started to experience the Police attacks. One day a whole gang people turned up with an ambulance and we were invited to get into it.. We had just treturned from doing state of the art work on one of their "clients" who had been confined to his dwelling for over 6 yrs. In the space of 3 hours he grabbed a coat and disappeared into the night , returning an hour later. When he dashed out there was a thud and we noticed a woman lying on here back the other side of what was a closed door. she ran out too. All of this incl the "raid" was predicted. We were told not to resolve anyones mental health issues because the work interferred with finacial gains. We indict also the Insurance Industry.The indictment is Establishment Manslaughter. 1000s are involved. We refer to 30.000 deaths over 35 yrs. 1000s Court cases are void. Also implicated is F-Book and Yahoo and many others. The press system has said that none of this text can ever appear in print in UK.The BBC advised "Hide The Documents Abroad". The text represents statements of fact,truth reality. This is a legal document and its not lawful to destroy it without action. No UK HM Member of Parliament will answer questions. No University or student likewise. 50 Police were given huge amounts eidence and didnt reply. Also implicated is a Dimbleby family member who is involved with media of course. No reply from Lottery Board re the multitrillion malfunding.. The Educ Minister is a "MP" for the area which is full of corruption. No wonder we were obliged to employ bodyguards. The public? They tell us this- "Its Nothing To Do with Me". Did we not notice that going on in 133-45. The fact is is killed millions and the description applied is "Appeasement". But dont let this worry you particularly if your new kitchen is planned. Heres another quote- "If Only It Was Not My Brother In Laws Wedding Anniversary I Would Have Time Top Rescue You From Certain Death".. Anyone for a game of squash make sure you have a racket. Yes weve seen thgese movies and is that hypocrisy ? No it isnt We do it when we are too exhausted to do antthing else but, having been involved for many yrs in Cent London theater, TV and other we dont kid ourselves about actors or film makers. We had 100s "friends" or did we. Theres never ever been a "film" about the corrupt police Home Office or the HM Court system. Theres just the one bent policeman now and then. The reader ought to have been with us when we had to employ b-guards to stop the Establ killing us. But, it needs more than an evnin watching junk to do that.Wheres the film about the HM involverments and the schools and religions. We could not find a mainstream religion that was not crrpt.We repeat no replies from 1000 mailas sent to HM Govt. Local Govt. HM Courts. HM Princes "trust". HM CPS. HM Bar council. HM MPs. The F-Book Org erasing or blocking mails and accounts cos they fund crrpt Universities. The Lufthasa Crash cover up 144+ deaths implicates all the listed orgs plus the psychlogical society plus of course the CEO who when asked for next of kin list sent offers of cheap flight tickets.(Cologne Office) By the way after WW2 dedicated Nazis were given key jobs in EEC and Germany. One of the clowns was orig wanting to destroy Russia except for slave material. This week we just realised that The Baarder Meinhoff group was not wrong in its theory but they went about it wrongly. They did what we did, that is completely underestimate the publics ability to go along with anything that suits their incomes. The physicist Einstein declared that in the 1950s but the public ignored it.The EEC Office Cent London told us this- "Nothing Can Be done about Corruption In Europe". . Latest from the Police? - Nobody should be warned about danger if they have not requested it. If you see someone drowning you must not help without their request. Thata what comes of insanity within Psychiatry/psychology.Who is to blame ? Its you. Why?. Ask.
And dolores too!
A total gem: plot, direction and above all Rod Steiger.
What a treat! Can't believe that I had never heard of it before. Rod Steiger is brilliant in this film.
If you like this, you must see "The Third Man" and also the original "Brighton Rock," with David Attenborough. Both written by Greene. 😁
Brenda Lester
I agree with both films you mention, except in “Brighton Rock” it is Richard Attenborough, not his brother David who makes those fabulous wildlife documentaries.
@@TheSaltydog07 thanks
He's always brilliant. Loved him in "The Pawnbroker".
@@patrickryan1515 that's the one. Thanks I was trying to rem the title. That was my fav RS movie and, of course, who doesn't love Graham's stories.
Happy Holidays!
Great. Especially the scene where Rod Steiger says "I said later" is like in real life. I watched the movie two times. Such films are rare today. A fantastic thing....thank you for uploading this gem.
What a movie! Great acting! Great suspense! And the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress goes to....
Dolores!
Amazing film. How I managed to miss this jewel, i don’t know. The histrionic talent of Rod Steiger is superb. Many thanks for sharing
Historic. You might want to look up the meaning of "histrionic"...
I've been watching a lot of dog rescue videos on You-Tube, and then remembered a film I watched many years ago. This was 'Across the Bridge'. It was made in 1957, and I would have seen it around ten or eleven (my grandmother managed a tea-room cinema, where I got free entry, in Durban, South Africa). The last section of the film affected me deeply to the extent that it still remains with me now. Steiger's performance was, as if with everything else he did, extraordinary, his desperate need for the dog at the end heart-breaking.
The dog is an English Setter. We had two of them. A very affectionate dog.
So loyal ...beautiful dog so sad
Loves animals. Ignores people. Great. Dont tell us we dont understand. Frend ours breeds dogs. Heres a reply from a dog groomer- "F-Off Idiot".Yeah fantasy is good till you believe it. The wonderful cops/courts and the bad criminals.Go on. Just ignore what follows (as usual)..--

Beautiful dog. Such an intelligent face and those eyes!
not a brittany spaniel?
Wonderful dogs
What a movie! Atmospheric noir with fine acting by Steiger and plot twists. Thank you!
What I don't get is how the timing is so current. Old movies seem to drag, they seem stilted a bit -- it's the style changes over all these decades. Just like serious music, surely. This doesn't seem to have aged at all. It's an amazing under-estimator.
I watched this movie many years ago and cried so much, now I watch it again, nothing changes.....love
the dog....Owned 3 in my life. Sweet memories.
Rod steiger what a magnificent role he was sensational. He made the movie more intents. Drama and thrilling. Also do not leave out the dog he was awesome and show love affection, when he was not like in the movie. The dog was rejected many times bit continue to go around the stranger to show his love.
I hate to nitpick but it's intense, not intents.
Very interesting, very entertaining, very everything. Steiger was superb as was the writing and directing. Quality upload...thanks.
you got that right Dimbo Dumb
A grand life lesson in greed and lies.. poor dog's loyalty til the end! Great plot and performances.. Thanks highly for posting!
Indeed
❤ who wouldnt agree with every glowing comment..... we've watched / enjoyed it over and over again.....hats off to Rod and Deloris...beautifully done❤🎉😂❤
I love the dog. She is so beautiful and incredibly cute and cuddly! ♥️♥️♥️😃
Rod Steiger at his best undoubtedly but Dolores hits the spotlight. Excellent movie. Thanks for uploading.
Steiger was a Great Actor. Always believable.
This film is just superb and Steiger is phenomenal playing the part of a ruthless mogul but we can not leave Dolores out she was a very important component in the film and lets not forget the corrupt authorities that will brake their own laws to benefit themselves we can learn lots of lessons from this film but in the end he only had one friend and he die for her Dolores and thank you for sharing this wonderful film .
What a superb actor Rod Steiger was, what a joy to watch his movies!
Just noticed your handle. HITCHHIKER, eh?
Too wild. Speaking of Graham Greene, I was just thinking how I hadn't read any fiction since Richard Bach and Don Adams. Then I saw your name.😁 Have the books and DVDs, Hitch from the turn of this century, and Jonathan Livingston Seagull from the 70s. (I think.)
I'm going to see what's on my Watch list now.
🙋♀️everyone have a great evening.❤
Bravo Mr. Steiger. Rod Steiger was an incredible actor. He is phenomenal
'Steiger was particularly aggressive towards director Kenneth Annakin during the making of Across the Bridge, insisting on rewriting most of the script and changing many of the lines to better fit Steiger's idea of the character. Annakin stated that he had "never known an actor to put so much thought and preparation into a performance" as Steiger.' Wikipedia
Thanks for this!
Yeh, the best are like that. Peter Falk was known as a pain in the ass with directors too. Doesn't stop them from being the very best.
@@helenlauer9545 Yeah, but that makes them terrible
Great actor!

Rod Steiger , one of the very best, if not The Best. A wonderful performance and an excellent film.
A British movie with locations in the USA and Mexico. Brilliant !
I just remembered seeing this movie years ago when it first came out. I really enjoyed it then as I do now especially the dog. Rod Steiger did a good job in the role overacting as usual. The film had a good cast of basically unknown actors to me. The story and direction was excellent. The music score was okay. I just loved that Dog. Thanks for the upload. Out.
I believe the technical term is 'high key'. Intense, but not over the top.
Rod Steiger always portrayed a great 'Rotter'. He should have been cast as a 'Bond' villain.
As for Delores with her wet nose and hugely expressive eyes, I hope she won an academy award for the best supporting canine actor.
Thanks for the upload. A very enjoyable film. Great to see 'M' James Bond's boss 'Bernard Lee on the case.👍
There used to be an award PATSY (Picture Animal Top Star of the Year)
I don't know why it isn't presented anymore, but it needs to be revived.
Capital idea ! Steiger would have made a GREAT Bond villain ! He could have played Goldfinger's brother (the one with hemorrhoids)....otherwise known as "STINKYFINGER" ! :-)
What a plot! What a Dog! . Steiger at his best. Best film I have seen in white a while
Really liked this film, Rod Steiger, and Dolores. Thank you for uploading it.
Let’s not forget that these wonderful movies are FREE . 30 sec of our time here and there is going to kill us. I think it’s a fair exchange for a gem like this 😊
Dear Sadie, May I ask if you meant it isn't going to kill us ;)
And it is a brilliant film, I loved it cheers.
There’s fair use of ads and there’s abusive use of ads. No one begrudges a person making money but this is too much.
Brilliant actors. Great cinematography. This should be a classic.
Extraordinary film. The genius of Rod Steiger is hard to match. I did find it extremely difficult to watch for the degree of violence between men, but also, because Delores was loyal to the Steiger character and, therefore, also an outcast, to the degree that no one seemed willing to feed her or treat her at all humanely.
Perhaps this was designed to tug at our heartstrings and teach a valuable lesson: this compassionate dog was more moral than the entire cast of ‘human’ characters.
A superb movie. Great performance from Stieger. Thank you for making this gem available.
I watch anything with Steiger, and the simple but unexpected twists and turns are exciting. Thank you for sharing.
Loved him in Patterns
@@ozdavemcgee2079 thank you i will look for it. Steiger is the finest.
Thank you so much, this is a great movie and definitely a classic with Rod Steiger, superb twist very unusual and I loved the way Delores plonked her head upon the poor anti-hero in the end.
Honestly superb thank you.
why do you enter 3 names?
i suggest you write SPOILER ALERT next time
@@kweejibodali3078Or maybe read the comments after watching the movie.
I'm watching this second time the most beautiful part is that beautiful dog and his eyes.
Rod Steige went on to come on as a police chief in the famous movie " In The Heat of the Night } 1968 with Sidney Pointier. A huge hit.
One the best movies Rod Steiger ever stared in.
Have you seen no way to treat a lady if you haven't you should try and hunt it down. Its a black comedy were Rod Steiger plays a serial killer who preys on the rich women of new York
@@johnlewis9158 Yes that is a great movie one I've not seen in along while.
Is staring part of his signature style?
Excellent, with nice twists and great performances all around (including the dog!). Steiger had such range - see him in everything from serious pieces like THE PAWNBROKER, ON THE WATERFRONT, and IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT through comedies and satires like MARS ATTACKS! and THE LOVED ONE.
Also Doctor Zhivago
HI
And what about ' Raskalnikoff' in ' Dr, Zhiwago'? And the crazy dude in ' Oklahoma' Shalom to us only in Christ Yeshua.
This film deserves five thumbs up (stars). The acting is excellent, the script tight and suspenseful, and the cinematography (especially on location in Mexico), Oscar worthy. IMDB gives this 7.3, but don't read the synopsis....it has spoilers!!!
The only real "victim" in this whole story is the poor dog.
yEAH REAL VICTIM MAYBE SHE CAN GET REPARATION FROM THE GOVERNMENT. wHAT A DOPE YOU ARE
@@robertwesley4416 No, Mr. Wesley. You are the (cold-hearted) dope.
I agree. I was laser focused on the dog ever since she
first appeared. Her treatment was abysmal at best.
Poor Dolores stole the show.
Hey. Award winning journalist David Knight is in the Credits.
His character had uncanny grit while the tempo of the film was superbly a real twister in the plot & profound ending. Thanks!
“ Seven or ten years!” -
Totally engrossing plot and subplots. The wry irony reminds me of the Twilight Zone. Love the dog.
Excellent movie. I think the dog should have had someone take care and love her. So heart breaking. The towns people had to have known the dog belonged to their hero.
Yes, the biggest mistake in the movie--- the hero's wife doesn't care about the dog.
The best thriller that you never knew existed. Suspense, twists and everything you could ever crave for from a classical film noir flix. Great acting, not the least on the part of Dolores who turns out to become a crucial character in the story. Enjoy your watching. All the best from Denmark.
Very excited to come across this- it hasn't been easy to find. Last saw this on TV about 40 years ago and always remembered it. Thanks!
I really like how they show the actors at the start.
amazing never knew rod steiger was this good... what performance, nuanced, directing also...great classics on youtube these days...graham greene, the novelist is great also, never got into his books as yet but may take another look
Hvala vam za ove divne filmove koji su nam dostupni sa prevodom.
Excellent. Superb in every way. Better story telling than the contemporary James Bond films and latest Star War movies that rely too much on gimics and special effects.
Thank you for posting wonderful movie.
what a splendid film, Actor ! thank you.
A friend of mine was an extra in the wedding scene of THE CHOSEN. He told me how kind Rod Steiger was to everyone.
What a joy is this brilliant film -
From the story by Graham Greene ( who else one may ask) -
Greene one of the Best of British
A long long time ago when the world our world was a different place
Starring Rod Steiger and a stellar cast
Thank you so much
This reminds me of the great noirs like The Third Man, Touch of Evil, and Lolita. Wonderful discovery.
This is an excellent picture on many levels, yet I have never heard of it! I loved it. Thanks for sharing...
Wow..while watching this it came back to me, that I have watched this movie years ago, so good with its twists and turns! Thanks for sharing!
Many thanks for sharingRod Steiger is one the finest actors in film history

Rod Steiger is always amazing! Thx for the free entertainment. Keeps my mind off the pain of evil C.
Tremendous film, positively dripping with irony. And, as I expected - watch the dog...
Blimey ! That was one good drama ! Enjoyed watching it very much ! Thanks for uploading this whole film ! Got to admit, I had never even heard of this British production till a friend told me about it. And I thought I was familiar with all of Rod Steiger's movies ! CHEERS !! :-)
Steiger is great & movie itself is full of twists. Most enjoyable.
One of the Best Movies I've ever seen. No words to Thank You !
