The movie has got to be B/W with decent audio. Sometimes the sound is so bad on even redone movies it makes them unwatchable. Very disappointing when you get all set to watch and a horrible cacophony comes blaring out. Not here though, good pic. Thanks again Busted Fish!
Mahalo BT for another great B/W classic movie BT has the best classic movies to watch so enjoyable to watch need more great movies for the subscribers 2 watch
G man Dave Elliott (Donald Cook) goes undercover to get the "Big Guy" in a numbers racket mob. Naturally he finds love along the way in the form of the lovely Evalyn Knapp, who was a leading lady in many "B" movies and serials of the 30s and 40s. Warren Hymer plays Midget a not very bright numbers runner. Hymer was fun to watch in this film and funny too, Hymer had a real life drinking problem and showed up for work drunk at a picture, Columbia chief Harry Cohn had him thrown off the lot. Hymer got his revenge though by urinating on Cohn's desk. Hymer died in 1948 at the age of 42. A great "B" list cast, and some clever dialog make Confidential a must see for fans of this era in film. ★★★
@27:06, after the blonde gets her butt accidently hit----He apologizes, and she says "no harm done,just a little paint off the bumper". A classic line if there ever was one.
Love Warren Hymer whose specialty was playing the dumb, good natured hood. J. Carroll Naish adds menace.Knapp who the year before this starred in the Perils of Pauline was gorgeous.
Excellent movie, J. CARROL NASH won an academy award for his role as the Italian P.O.W. in the 1943 WW2 movie shahara, with humpfry bogart. J.carrol Nash was the guy who killed the ring leaders son! You gotta watch Sahara! The German fighter pilot looked like David Bowie! TIN MACHINE ALBUM! YEHA! YOU CAN LISTEN TO THE FIRST TIN MACHINE ALBUM FREE ON YOU TUBE!

It is always a treat to see Warren Hymer! Thanks for sharing this movie.
Enjoyable gangster flick moves along at a brisk pace and wraps everything up in just over an hour. Thanks for posting.
I really enjoyed this movie. Thanks for bringing it to everyone.
Thanks for posting this little gem. Fast pace, slick performances, great script.
Broken Trout you channel is the best. Love your gangster movies!! I appreciate what you do very very much.
Yes!
Kane Richmond, not wearing a cape in this one! Thanks, BT, for another excellent cops 'n' baddies flick.
This is the kinda movie you want to watch on a rainy day in the bedroom without your phone ringing !

For me a sunny day in the kitchen will also do, I am not particular.

Thanks BT. I enjoyed this.🍻
You are very welcome Teresa. What a great "B" movie , old enough that the cliche's are actually fresh.

Pretty good little film
On behalf of LW, from one of his followers, full view, like and comment.
Thanks for taking the time to view Torsten Valden.
this is beautiful stuff and my phone is off and its raining!!!

A great movie with a director who never heard of the term "segue".....ah so!
There's always a guy named "Lefty" in these old films. 😃🎬🎥📽
I was thinking exactly the same thing this morning. So many Lefties, and not a single Rightie !
They were blocked from using :. Limpy, One-Eye and Dummy.
Im waiting for Dutch to turn up.
Or “fingers” or “ice pick”

Another nat Levine gem. Sparkling gold Jerry, gold
Pretty good B Movie with mostly lesser-known actors.
I enjoyed the great J. Carrol Naish as 'Lefty' Tate, he was in a bunch of movies.
Thanks for the comment @Terry Peterson
what about “midget”?
I don't understand these movies, they Mobster💯
I have seen Naish play Italians, Spanish and Mexican roles. Did he ever play an Irishman?
Theodore von Eltz reminds me of Edmund Lowe.
This is Donald Cook yet Donald Woods name goes up at the start.
He never won an oscar.Nominated for Sahara and A medal for Benny.
Dope👊
this was before the Bureau of Investigation put Federal in front of its name
J.Carrol Naish tvs Charlie Chan
Unwatchable...too much background noise.
Was easy to see who the Big Guy was here. A little slap stick, but enjoyable.(ls)
Problem with the computer enhancements! Men's hair look like a shower cap for one...
Then along came state lotteries...

Donald Cook looks like Victor Jorys more handsome brother.

Donald Cook could be Victor Jorys better looking brother.
He looks like Bogart to me and even sounds like him
WITH COVI9 TRUMP & MITCH MC CONNELL THE COUNTRY THE LOTTERY IS FINISHED !
