I gotta laugh! I remember watching this with my grandma in the 1970's on an old Black & White TV. There was a commercial that came on that said, "Woman on the Run is brought to you by the fine makers of Exlax". My grandma said, "Yep, taking that would put a woman on the run!" I still get belly laughs to this day remembering that!
The timeless beauty of film noir is you know going in that unlike other films this will not end happily ever after. And I love this type of reality. Also you are required to think about the plot enveloping. Nothing better in my opinion. Thank you for these remarkable films who had wonderful writers.kept you glued to your seat.appreciate these classic low budget films that relied on excellent writing and acting. They gave you the steak instead selling you the sizzle.
This is a fantastic piece of Noir. There's no one in HW who would not have jumped at the chance to appear in an Ann Sheridan film in 1950. The writing was exquisitely sarcastic, the acting highly effective and the denouement superb. A hidden gem! Thank you TCM.
Best line in the movie 15:10 mark. After leaving the women's apartment after first interview the detective said....No wonder the worlds full of bachelors.
Absolutely nothing wrong with this film. Nice dialogue and pacing, with super performances and a reasonably suspenseful ending. Lots accomplished in its little-over-an-hour package.
Terrific old noir! Sheridan and O’Keefe in leads are in top form..a witty script, great San Francisco scenes AND more significantly absolutely FILLED with excellent secondary character actors of the period.
I loved the moment when the detective (played by Robert Keith) realizes who the killer really is despite at first not wanting to listen to the witness giving him the clue. Actor Robert Keith's changing facial expression when he realizes the killer's identity is so perfectly subtle. Character acting at its best. The dramatic suspense in the ending scene is as good as you will see in a movie. Very nice movie.
A truly classic example of Film Noir. Great story and settings and more upbeat and less gloomy than so many of this genre. Fantastic witty dialogue sadly missed in so many modern movies. Every scene has a purpose with no padding. Absolutely recommended.

One of the 10 or 12 best film noir movies I ever saw. It's the only film I ever saw with Ann Sheridan in a starring role. She was a great actress. Wonderful scenes of San Francisco before it became too expensive to live in, and too full of skyscrapers to like.
This is no ordinary crime/noir film. This is an outstanding love story too; without the man and the woman being together-except towards the very end. The bad man DID help the wife FIND her LOST husband. Marvelous. Simply marvelous.
Dennis o keefe a very good lead- I undererrated . Ms. Sheridan divine actress of course. Always realistic and in the moment. adult dialogue that respects ones intelligence. Nice visuals of san francisco.
Really well done and tight fast paced plotting...love Miss Ann!!! For big fans of hers check out The Man who Came to Dinner from 1944.A gem of comedic performance she steals the movie from Bette Davis!! Thanks for aharing this rarely seen flick!
I love this Film Noir Movie "Woman on the Run." It was shown on TCM and kept me on the edge of my seat with twists and turns. This was meant to transition Ann Sheridan into more leading lady roles, but didn't do much for her career. I don't know why, she is beautiful and sassy. If you love Film Noir, you will not be disappointed if you watch this film. A glass of Pinot Noir is a wonderful choice while viewing!
Great. Just great. Nothing like the chaos of an amusement park at night to heighten the tension. (Some real nightmare fodder at the end, there.) Thanks for posting this 5-star thriller.
Highly underrated, too. I think she's every bit as talented as Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, and I like them too. I never pass on an Ann Sheriden film. Nora Prentiss is one of my favorites, of Ann's. This one, too. Many others. Great lady and easy on the eyes.
What a suspenseful movie. Oh and that horrible laughing woman. I hope I don't dream about that laugh. Thank you for posting such a good movie for us to all to enjoy.
Ann Sheridan was a very good Actress, extremely popular during this time period. One of her best roles was in the movie "King's Row", which is one of my favorite films with one of the best musical scores ever written by Erick von Korngold.
I loved this movie and I'm a new fan of Ann Sheridan. There was an undercurrent of humour in this that I liked very much as well, such as her cynical responses to the cops. "Why don't you go back to the jail, or wherever it is that you live?" Priceless.
Great noir....cannot go wrong with Dennis and Ann in any movie......Dennis is such an underrated actor...something like Steven Mcnally....ENJOYED this TY.
I caught sight of two HUDSONs, one looks like a Hornet, and at least one NASH. Amazing, no one knows today that there was any cars like a Hudson, Nash or for that matter a Packard. Being a child of the 50's you remember.
Love these old movies! Funny thing is I remember carnivals like this one at the end, the mechanical laughing lady! Yeah I remember that! Makes me pretty old!
That's Laffing Sal, who 'laffed' at Playland at the Beach until it closed in 1972 to make way for some hideous condos.☹She still exists, though, at the Musee Mechanique at Pier 45 in SF. Other Laffing Sals creeped out patrons at other parks around the country, so you probably met one of her sisters!
@ probably so! That’s been a long time ago. It’s been a while since I’ve been to a carnival but back in the day they had the side shows. I also remember (as a kid) there would be people driving through town with different kinds of things. I remember an eighteen wheeler driving a dead whale around and you’d pay to go in and see it, that was really weird! Once someone had Bonnie and Clyde’s car with all the bullet holes. I think I read somewhere it’s in a museum somewhere now. Times were different back then.
I love watching urban street scenes from the past, and San Francisco is particularly picturesque and atmospheric. I believe that the majority of noirs were shot in LA because of its convenient proximity to Hollywood, but both San Francisco and New York have/had more of a noirish feel and atmosphere, in my opinion. So, I find it especially fun to watch a San Francisco noir like this one.
Yeah, really lol ... not only that, but when she walked across that wood beam board, from one rooftop to the next one, unbelievable, in high heels? Lord have mercy lol 🌿
Best line in the movie 15:10 mark. After leaving the women's apartment after first interview the detective said....No wonder the worlds full of bachelors.
What a treat, just now becoming familiar with Ann Sheridan and she is great! Love also the San Francisco locations and “Laughing Sal” is still around but unfortunately all the rest of the amusement park is gone like yesterday.
A great travelogue of San Francisco.Great job by Robert Keith and Ann Sheridan in that order. Looks like Montgomery Clift's "The Big Lift" (1949) was the film playing in the film towards the end.
I agree except with the “naturally” part. Lots of makeup, hairstyles that required a lot of work, girdles, fantastic lighting, and gauzy, Vaseline filters on cameras. That’s not my definition of natural. But again, I agree they did look lovely.
@@teresas8173 It's fiction. And actors carefully chosen to portray a story. Of course it's not 'natural'. No one want's 'natural'. That's why even reality shows are scripted. If we want reality, we have our own family, neighbors and workmates to watch, and NOBODY want's to watch them! However, Hollywood does tend to pick the better looking people rather than all the average or ugly folks to be their stars unless the particular character calls for 'ugly' (as in the good, the bad and the ugly!).
Interesting movie. It's got an odd mood to it throughout... and the last bits, at the carnival, get really wild visually. I also like that it doesn't go into much detail for the killer's motives, what went before. In that way it does capture some of that bleak fatalism that I like in best noir movies.
Very solid film. It also definitely appears to have been somewhat influenced--locations, sensibility, camera work--by Welles' "The Lady From Shanghai" which came out 3 years earlier, in 1947. If you're going to borrow, borrow from the best! Thanks so much for uploading this, very enjoyable film & great quality for youtube.
Good movie ! Great suspense! Wow! I remember that Amusement Park in San Fransisco. My Uncle took my sister and I there In 1964 0r '65 I was 3 or had just turned 4. I remember the laughing lady and the fun house with the wooden floor that spun, and the gigantic slide we went down on burlap sacks. I didn't like the place or the crowd.
The very end of this movie pays homage to "Girl on the Run" with the cackling animatronic clown... maybe. I've watched this 4 times in the past month. I love this film.
It's amazing how they worked on script .with hints of the mystery. So it pulls you into the storyline. The killer hiding in plain sight . The witness's on the lamb. Hence the Philosophy. If you want to safeguard something or someone hide in plain sight. Love the writers of this period . My mum God rest her soul. Said the writers of hailed as far more of interesting than the rest. People read . Sometimes the books were far better than the movies. But oftentimes the script interpretation of the book superseded the book
I enjoyed watching a young Ross Elliott play "Frank Johnson." His voice gave him away in the first five minutes: I recognized him from THE VIRGINIAN as the character, "Sheriff Mark Abbott."
This was an excellent movie. I would label it as "suspense," though--not "film noir." But, as Wikipedia says, "Whether film noir qualifies as a distinct genre is a matter of ongoing debate..."

Great memory! Grandma's are the best❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love how a lot of old films have a dream-like feel to them. Definitely beats the mediocre movies that come out today.
These movies take you away to another time & place, in this world, now, it's needed!
Exactly!!
Soo true!
Interesting you say that, i keep YT on at night to hear these old movies. Help me sleep.
One of the most dreamlike old movies I ever saw was The Enchanted Cottage. If you haven't seen it look it up on You Tube. It's an excellent old movie.
What an absolute GREAT movie .
Being a native born San Franciscan i LOVE all the old scenes of the City .

Very well put. I couldn't agree more.
hear hear 🍸
Best line in the movie 15:10 mark. After leaving the women's apartment after first interview the detective said....No wonder the worlds full of bachelors.
Top notch! In 1950, this was probably considered a "routine crime melodrama," but it's far superior to most of the "best" that's made today.
Ann Sheridan is a good actress. She made this movie work.
Great movie! I love the older movies. They are definitely better than movies created today.
Absolutely nothing wrong with this film. Nice dialogue and pacing, with super performances and a reasonably suspenseful ending. Lots accomplished in its little-over-an-hour package.

Films like this on RUclips channels like this have me questioning why I continue to pay for Netflix.
Fuck netflix & cable & video stores.
Highronimus Adamantium ....Netflix has no content....that I like anywsy

There's a lot of stuff I enjoy on Netflix, but they really dropped the ball on Classic Hollywood, and Noir.

Many modern film elements, some noir elements, great acting, fantastic dialogue, complex male/female relationships..... This is a little gem.
Thanks. The last scene is as good as anything in cinema. Fantastic.
O'Keefe & Sheridan. Directed by one of the best. Not a bad frame in the entire film.
thank you so much for uploading this great movie for us!
what a great nerve-wracking tense scene on the roller coaster.

"Didn't your husband ever beat you?" The cop had a bit of a bite, also.
Totally captivating. Loved every second of it and felt relieved that he made it!!!
The script is so razor sharp, you could shave with it....
Great noir....cannot go wrong with Dennis and Ann in any movie......Dennis is such an underrated actor...something like Steven Mcnally....ENJOYED this TY.
It's fantastic and I love all the old shots of San fran xx
yes, Now it's San Franpooh
So cool to actually see footage of the old amusement park. It's gone now and the animatronics are now in a museum.
@@jonnynguyen6246 : And today it’s San-Fran Freak--O instead of the once beautiful San Francisco!

Have you seen "Roaring City"?
Ward Cleaver was a shady character before marrying June.
Loved it! Great plot with a couple of surprises thrown in. Thanks!
I love this; very modern feel to the dialogue; keeps you guessing til the end. Sorry, I'll have to watch ti again when I'm sober.
Wow Great film.. Thank you! A real treat, Ann Sheridan at her wonderful best!

They made them tough and sexy from Texas. The likes of Anne Sheridan and Linda Darnell
Splendid actress.
Loved her in They Drive by Night with Bogart and Raft.
Oops, and the wonderful Ida Lupino
What a treat, just now becoming familiar with Ann Sheridan and she is great! Love also the San Francisco locations and “Laughing Sal” is still around but unfortunately all the rest of the amusement park is gone like yesterday.
Laughing Sal moved to Beach Boardwalk in Santa Cruz.

I remember the laughing lady and the fun house with the wooden floor that spun, and the gigantic slide we went down on burlap sacks. I didn't like the place or the crowd.
It's nice to see a film that does not have turn-off 4-letter words that makes you hope for good batteries in the remote.

utube is great when they play the entire movie...
never saw this movie before; for me it's a showstopper in every way. except coordination of subtitles with what's on the screen.
Here is yet another one that I had seen before. I had forgotten who the bad guy was.
Enjoyed it as much the second time as the first.

Yes, you have seen "Sammy" of the dance troop/restaurant before. He played Charlie Chan's son in a number of the series' entries.
I enjoyed watching a young Ross Elliott play "Frank Johnson." His voice gave him away in the first five minutes: I recognized him from THE VIRGINIAN as the character, "Sheriff Mark Abbott."

Q: what did you have for breakfast, cigarette and coffee ? A: cigarette
Thanks to the person who gave the plot away before I saw the movie. Now that I know who the killer is in the movie, what's the point in watching?
The acting, the camerawork, the lighting, the costumes, the dialogue etc etc etc. noir movies especially are not just whodunnits.
I wonder what year the rollercoaster was torn down. I liked trying to figure out what streets they were filming on in the different scenes.
