Why did she turn to alcohol? Howard was also g. reat. Did his being blackballed affect their marriage? He played Same Spade with great understayed humor. Love that about him.
What an excellent movie - as soon as I heard Monty's voice I knew who it was (didn't look at the credits). Ida Lupino is fine - what a mind, what a heart, what a face - triple threat! Thanks for posting this 💖 🇨🇦
@@jongirard2753 @Jon Girard Word to the wise: turns out there's two "They Drive By Night" films, one made in 1938 in the UK starring Emyln Wood -- I just watched that one in vain, wondering when Ida Lupino would float onscreen. It can be watched here: ruclips.net/video/tbb35n5BKQg/видео.html The one with Ms. Lupino was made in 1940, and harder to find free on YT. The trailer is here: ruclips.net/video/p78XR5BbSJk/видео.html Both have truck driving and crime noir in them, so I'm still happy :)
Great little movie, wonderful script and fantastic acting !! Those days are long gone with all the crap they produce these days for movies..... Thanks for posting much appreciated. *******
Some top acting credentials here. Monty Woolley was a professorial fixture at the Yale Drama School for many years. Ida Lupino's family had been actors going back to Renaissance Italy. Primarily known today as a respected director of feature films ("The Hitch-Hiker," "The Trouble With Angels" ) and TV ("Twilight Zone" "Gilligan's Island," and "Alfred Hitchcock Presents") Ida Lupino was also a highly rated actress, lending her sultry beauty and clear diction to parts ranging from a femme fatale ("They Drive By Night") to broad comedy ("PIllow to Post"). Though it was not generally known, she had had polio in her late teens, and though recovered entirely, the experience must have lent a special dimension to her role as a lame woman in "Life Begins At Eight Thirty."
My 2nd time enjoying this film. The multi-talented and lovely Ida Lupino was deeply in love with her first husband and Actor Louis Hayward! They were a right match for each other, but WW2 happened and he joined the Marine Corps and came back with 'Battle Fatigue' or 'Shell Shock' as it was referred to back then. Thus, causing their divorce after she tried hard to save it.
Sara Allgood was also the mother in How Green Was My Valley. I learned a line from her in that movie, “Oh, Go blow it out your nose”. I say quite often now
I love that he says to his aunt; "Where did you get that hat?, Rosalind Russell?"... ;))) I love "Rosalind's" taste in hats. She can make something that you'd think you'd be uncomfortable in look fabulous, she was definitely a person who could start a trend!(BostonRachel)EDIT:+SHE HAD GREAT TASTE IN CLOTHES, PUTTING OUTFITS TOGETHER...GREAT TASTE IN GENERAL!
sara allgood. also the welsh mother in how green was my valley and a slattern in kitty with paulette goddard and vivien leigh's mother in the lady hamilton. always good to see allgood.
@Sharon Andrews: Ever seen "The Man Who Came to Dinner" with Monty Wooley, Bette Davis, Billie Burke, Ann Sheridan, and Jimmy Durante? If you like Monty Wooley, you should not miss "The Man Who Came to Dinner." He's the star--his role is bigger than Bette Davis's. She plays his secretary. Excellent movie that one can watch over and over.
Good. I, too, like his professor character in "The Bishop's Wife" but for my money, "The Man Who Came to Dinner" is his best role. ONe of those movies that we can watch many, many times and enjoy it just as much as the first time. I think that must be because of the pacing--the rapid pace at which the story progresses. It's almost frantic, but that's part of the hilarity. Anyway, glad you've seen it.
Absolutely! His delivery is very arch, and every line fairly drips with irony. What he could do with the tone and intonation of his voice was a marvel. A laugh a minute, especially with that fast pace. Worlds of fun! Every time. Cheers!
Both Cornell Wilde and Ida Lupino appeard on I Love Lucy episodes. That was the first time I'd ever seen them. I had no idea they, along with other actors that appeared on I.L.Lucy were in movies. So glad I can now see them in their glory days playing dramatic parts. So impressed with Lupino being both a very talented actress but also a director. Good for her, breaking through the glass ceiling so early in motion picture history!
Be. Wise Ida and her husband, Howard Duff, appeared on a Lucy Desi Comedy Hour special, which was after the run of the original show. It was set at a lakeside cabin. There were several specials, all filmed at the studio: Fred McMurray hunting for uranium in Vegas, Red Skelton in Alaska, Fernando Lamas at a ski resort, Edie Adams and Ernie Kovacs (the finale). The saddest one was when they ran into Robert Cummings in Japan. Sad because Lucy had filed for divorce during the filming.
What a GEM to find hidden away here in RUclips. I am a "fan" of both "Monty Wooley" of the Whiskers; and a "fan" of "Ida Lupino" and to find these two delightful Actors combining their talents in the One film, which was released way back in 1942, beginning with a Christmas setting.

Like going to Wikipedia checking out the actors in this movies. I was surprised of Ida Lupino who's married to Howard Duff for almost 31 years. I guess I wasn't really surprised but that's part of the fun of going to Wikipedia to see who these stars were married to. And checking out if their children became actors.
when i was a kid, i thought it was so great that she and Howard Duff were together. i thought it was a great match - they just seemed right together. when i was older, i thought the same for Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin. well, so much for the thoughts of kids - i guess i was a real romantic - and still am. i enjoy looking up actor's lives, too. Yule Brynner had a son - 'Rock' Yul Brynner, who became a writer and many other such things. people who are artists often have kids who stay in the business one way or another. :}
Was there anyone of that generation of pretty boys who was quite as stiff as Cornel Wilde? He makes John Derek and Tab Hunter look like Gielgud and Richardson. This script was adapted from a play by the Welsh writer and actor Emlyn Williams in which the daughter was cripple. Hollywood, in this case, screenwriter Nunnally Johnson and Zanuck at Fox, managed to sanitize the story and lighten it up. Monty Wooley was an actor of great charm if not of great depth who misses the pathos of the role. A pleasant diversion that might have been something else in more talented hands.
What a lovely hopeful, along with life's ups and dones , but it's all how you look at it ,,,,,,,is your cup half empty, or half full ! It's all in how you look at things !!
Alexa Penn when I was a kid I thoughtwhen I grew up I would go to New York because of all these black and white movies and I was going to go shopping at the Macy's and Gimbels Department Stores I think Gimbels was already gone by the time I was a kid but Macy's was still there I didn't have to go to New York Macy's came to me and bought out my favorite store which had been Robinson's. I will tell you that I spent a lot of money at Macy's instead of shopping anywhere else because I couldn't beat the quality for the price due to their wonderful sales especially if you had their Macy's card. I haven't lived near Macy's in 20 years. Since I'd bought all that I wanted for my home and my clothes have lasted all this time through rotation and careful management through the seasons & re -working when the Styles changed the quality was so good I've spent very little on clothes today. My mom had told me if you buy quality from a quality store which Macy's was at that time you'll never regret it. PS the reason I love the black and white movies and learn about Macy's was during the 70s where I grew up 5 days a week Bob Dale had the classic movie theater at 3 in the afternoon perfect time for kids to catch a breather and you could sit and have your afternoon snack and watch television and learn trivia about them Classic Movies

ThankTheLord oh for heaven’s sake, i used to go to Alexanders all the time in the Bronx eons ago. i didn’t realize it wasn’t there anymore. down through history, i’ve seen comments here and there from older people about how things have changed - Shubert Alley on Broadway will always be an Alley to me. what they’ve done to it is a travesty!! “Pave paradise - put up a parking lot!!! “ :p 🎋
Police department to arrange for my lodging permanent position in as above 🏠🍍🌲 and more suitable looking glass house similar here in the country shown above immediately. From house of Mr UNPandey family
Santa is a little tight.ho ho hi. Smile lemonade , cool refreshing drink. Oops $110. Time to live . I didn't love you an now I loved you from the first that I saw you, how what when . An now I'm leaving to go an live, for me. Then off the wagon he goes. Sadly
Lovely actors fair to good direction the characters are too romanticist to be interlay believable in words or behavior at given moment and quiet a few . It feels contrived .It is very common in hollywood films to to make up ingenious stories, where examining human nature more realistically in the end is more fulfilling and lasting.this scene around 40: is an example . I will say I have stopped watching at 45:05
40:49 ..as she's reminding him only to drink lemonade, and he remarks: "How sharper than a serpent's tooth" ... is from Act 1, Scene 4 of King Lear, the same play he's protesting about. The full quote is: "How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child".
Lupino & Wilde were great but oh how supporting actors Woolley & Allgood have stolen my heart. Love Cooper & Demarest too. Sad story about the love of a child for her alcoholic father but he is clever enough to know who to marry.
Thank you for this! never saw it or even heard of it - love Ida Lupino and Monty Woolley, both. Agree with comment below - great script and acting. soooo nice! thanks again :)
I grew up with 2 alcoholics so I had not desire to see "Lost weekend" (love Mr. Miland) or Days of Wine and Roses (love Mr. Lemmon and Lee Remick). Las Vegas, NV August 3, 2019
Hollywood's visuliations of real life tragedy. It's not at all pure fiction. As alcoholism as with other forms of drug abuse can wreck other people's lives both emotionally as well as physically. I do not mean the occasional drinker. I mean real alcoholics.
@@MikeGreenwood51 I did not know the central theme of this film, even as I have avoiding viewing Ida Lupino movies, as, so often, they were too painful. Too, late into this film, I still can't handle it.
The Fog Cutter is a vintage tiki cocktail frequently attributed to being invented by Victor Bergeron that calls for a mixture of several liquors (rum, brandy, gin), the juice of lemon and oranges, orgeat syrup, and cream sherry.
When Monty Woolley belches at the beginning when he is in Santa's chair, and says "what did you expect madam; chimes" has its roots in a true story. Woolley was attending a dinner party one night and belched rather loudly. One woman was so appalled she glared at him and he glared back and said that line. The other guests were so amused that he insisted the line be written into his next movie, which is this one!
Awesome movie came here for Monty Wooley, but left with all the other actors in my heart. During the holidays The man who came to dinner is a must see in my household, the kids love, love it 💝🤗
They'll enjoy. 2. BIGGIES. Most likely! 1930 s NIGHT Work. And all will also enjoy. Judy Garlands. Gay Paris. ' Pare' " so awesome features. JulieKilburn
Ida Lupina was an amazing actress! She was never one of my favorites until recently, watching her movies on RUclips. Extremely talented unlike today’s actors! Thank you fo this lovely movie 💕
I think Ida Lupino and I have the same old moto: "Work like a Dog, think like a Man, and act like a lady." Jackie Kennedy did, too. Both accepted that it would be a "man's world" for a long time, but they were too smart to waste energy bellyaching about it. Ida opened her own studio, IdaLou, rather than succumb to being owned by the studios. (Imagine having to get permission to marry, and if you didn't, you were finished). Wilde was so young and handsome, a fine actor and by all accounts, a good person. He has 'good Eyes'. TY for posting this gem!
Monty Wooley - wow!!! although my absolute favorite is "The Man Who Came to Dinner". thank you so much for all these movies - makes me feel like myself again - most of the new bunch of actors (not all though) are so alike and really bore me.
Ida was a fabulous actress and an amazing woman.
What a wonderful film!
Of course although I'm 62 I consider Ida Lupino one of the most talented female Actors, Producers, and Directors of her time..
Why did she turn to alcohol? Howard was also g.
reat. Did his being blackballed affect their marriage? He played Same Spade with great understayed humor.
Love that about him.
She came from a show business family in Italy.
I Love Ida the actress and director !👍💖💖💖💖💖💖

A very young Cornel Wilde. Another film I have never seen before. Ida Lupino was terrific.
This is the third Ida Lupino movie I've watched in the last two days. Thank you very much.
If I may suggest, find her movie, "They Drive By Night". One of my favorites of hers. It also stars Humphrey Bogart, George Raft and Ann Sheridan.

Ida Lupino was not only a beautiful actress, but a very successful director,, thank you for the movie!💋
Magnificent ensemble cast, as each actor is in their own right !
Wooley is so good at these acid tongue characters, Wilde is solid and Lupino, as always, has an emotional range that's so vast it's a joy to watch.
Wow, 6 minutes in and this is looking like it`s going to be a really good movie,
16 minutes in. This is excellent.
"Why do you want to marry me?"
"Because I want you for my wife."
"Don't be silly, what would your wife want with me?"
Great Movie never saw it before. Great cast of actors & actresses. Ty for sharing.
a movie about unconditional love .... just beautiful and a lot to learn from it!
A quality movie, unlike the junk made today
Ida Lupino was AMAZING; thanks for sharing this. (So sorry to see that your other gem is no more; I was looking forward to seeing it.)
Gotta love Ida Lupino - always and forever!

40:49 ..as she's reminding him only to drink lemonade, and he remarks: "How sharper than a serpent's tooth" ... is from Act 1, Scene 4 of King Lear, the same play he's protesting about. The full quote is: "How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child".
My mother used to say that- frequently!
What a fabulous movie, super dialogue... Poignant!
Lupino & Wilde were great but oh how supporting actors Woolley & Allgood have stolen my heart. Love Cooper & Demarest too. Sad story about the love of a child for her alcoholic father but he is clever enough to know who to marry.
Thank you for this! never saw it or even heard of it - love Ida Lupino and Monty Woolley, both. Agree with comment below - great script and acting. soooo nice! thanks again :)
Did you happen to notice the great Cornel Wilde?
If you’ve known any real alcoholics, you know this is Hollywood.
‘Days of wine an roses’ closer. Lost weekend”
I grew up with 2 alcoholics so I had not desire to see "Lost weekend" (love Mr. Miland) or Days of Wine and Roses (love Mr. Lemmon and Lee Remick). Las Vegas, NV August 3, 2019
Hollywood's visuliations of real life tragedy. It's not at all pure fiction. As alcoholism as with other forms of drug abuse can wreck other people's lives both emotionally as well as physically. I do not mean the occasional drinker. I mean real alcoholics.
ah yes, I left LA ...not a good place.
@@MikeGreenwood51 I did not know the central theme of this film, even as I have avoiding viewing Ida Lupino movies, as, so often, they were too painful. Too, late into this film, I still can't handle it.
LOVED this film! Consummate acting on all parts! Thank you for sharing!
The Fog Cutter is a vintage tiki cocktail frequently attributed to being invented by Victor Bergeron that calls for a mixture of several liquors (rum, brandy, gin), the juice of lemon and oranges, orgeat syrup, and cream sherry.
Sounds REALLY awful! Thanks.
My mother had polio, she was of the same generation as Ida Lupino's character.
When Monty Woolley belches at the beginning when he is in Santa's chair, and says "what did you expect madam; chimes" has its roots in a true story. Woolley was attending a dinner party one night and belched rather loudly. One woman was so appalled she glared at him and he glared back and said that line. The other guests were so amused that he insisted the line be written into his next movie, which is this one!
What a great story - I totally believe it, he was a Card (as they say). Thanks.
@@acehandler1530 Yes, he was a piece of work alright! I sure wish I could have met him but he died before I was born.
Awesome movie came here for Monty Wooley, but left with all the other actors in my heart. During the holidays The man who came to dinner is a must see in my household, the kids love, love it 💝🤗
They'll enjoy. 2. BIGGIES. Most likely! 1930 s NIGHT Work. And all will also enjoy. Judy Garlands. Gay Paris. ' Pare' " so awesome features.

Only in hollyw[d movie does a ner do well live in a better home than hard working people.
It's the lighting. Plus b and w
makes it look cozier
I’ll watch any movie with that distinguished man!
I for one, am hooked on this channel. Love these old movies. I have had not so good experiences with new ones.
why are there only two movies on this channel? Do they put others on here periodically?
These days an apartment like that would go for a premium with original wood moldings, tall windows and solid wood doors.
Maybe $ 3,000 a month
MUCH MORE IN CALIFORNIA. OOH-WEE!🙊😿🤦♀️🤷♀️
Sedzi Mcnair, a lot more in NYC, until recently.
At least twice that in NYC, even though it's a walk up.
I love the prayer at about 15 minutes in to the movie.
Ida Lupina was an amazing actress! She was never one of my favorites until recently, watching her movies on RUclips. Extremely talented unlike today’s actors!
Thank you fo this lovely movie 💕
She was a very successful director as well. 🎉
Thank you for the wonderful entertainment. Perfect!
I am finding that I enjoy everything written and directed by Nunnally Johnson. Who knows this man?
Most of the dialogue is from the original play by Emlyn Williams.
Ida looks so young here!
She was only 24 when this was filmed.
A rather sentimental 1940s view of alchohol addiction. But a good movie, non-the-less.
He wasn't an alcoholic, he was sprayed with ant pheromones and he became confused and psychotic..🙉🙉🎅🎅🎅🤶🛸🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜👸👸🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🤶🎅🙉
I think Ida Lupino and I have the same old moto: "Work like a Dog, think like a Man, and act like a lady." Jackie Kennedy did, too. Both accepted that it would be a "man's world" for a long time, but they were too smart to waste energy bellyaching about it. Ida opened her own studio, IdaLou, rather than succumb to being owned by the studios. (Imagine having to get permission to marry, and if you didn't, you were finished). Wilde was so young and handsome, a fine actor and by all accounts, a good person. He has 'good Eyes'. TY for posting this gem!
What a great, grand drama, so beautifully done, one of the best movies ever. Every detail so perfectly sketched out.
I would love a girlfriend like Ida.
Yes , and I would love a boyfriend like Cornel Wilde!!!
Monty Wooley - wow!!! although my absolute favorite is "The Man Who Came to Dinner".
thank you so much for all these movies - makes me feel like myself again - most of the new bunch of actors (not all though) are so alike and really bore me.
Alexa Penn me too the wit is to good .
The past feels safer, no doubt.
I love Cornel Wilde in this film!!! He was such a great actor!!
I've fallen in love with her too artistically.
Great movie! Thanks!
Was Cornell in Leave her to Heaven???
Yes
No, but Cornel was
Yes , and he was wonderful!!
