- Part-time artist Christopher Cross is absolutely smitten with the beautiful Kitty March. Kitty plays along, but she’s really only interested in Johnny, a two-bit crook. When Kitty and Johnny find out that art dealers are interested in Chris’s work, they con him into letting Kitty take credit for the paintings. Cross allows it, but his love will only let her get away with so much.

Thanks so much!
Excelente pelicula gracias
please upload Bangla subtitles
I am in my 30s and my friends finds it odd when they see me watching classic movie. I think they are the best movies ever made.
Angel Nakpan they are. Tell your friends you recognize quality.
Right with you. I'm 39, and I've been watching the Golden Age films since I was a teenager.
They rock! Check out "Bad Sister" with my favorite actress-Bette Davis!!!! And "Possessed" with my second favorite actress-Joan Crawford!!
@@TheDeJureTour I'm 56, and I have been watching "old movies " since I was 13!!!! Can't get enough of them. Love Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Bogart, Cagney, Edward G. Robinson, Dorothy Dandridge & Lena Horne! And many more.
I love these movies
This wonderful 1945 film was made the same year I was born. 76 years later we are both still great!
Indeed : you are great.
Eres genial!
Вы ещё молодой 76 , это не предел! Желаю здоровья и счастья!💪☝️
Esta gran película se filmó un año después de yo nacer.1944.
Yay! Glad you're around to enjoy!
Edward G Robinson was one of the greatest and most underrated actors of his time. who else agrees with me?
agree
Totally
"Mother of mercy, is this the end of Rico?" Little Caesar 1931
Also: as Johnny Rocco: "Yeah. That's it. More. That's right! I want more!" Key Largo 1948
I totally agree.
I am a 43 year old mom of two teenagers and all my life I’ve been the only one in my circle who whatches these black-and-white classic movies , especially the noir genre ! Now I have my teenage kids making fun of my vintage movies 🙆🏻♀️😄😁! They will always be my passion : the pace , the dialogue , the fashion , the action without special effects .. all ❤️!
They'll understand one day-:)
Me too
Ana~
I really enjoyed this movie.
It had it all. Just excellent.
Here is one of my absolute favorites, also with Dan Duryea and Lizabeth Scott called: Too Late for Tears.
If you haven't seen it, you are in for a real treat.
Some of the finest acting, especially from Lizabeth Scott.
🍿
Im 43 as well ans have watched black and white movies . I watch with my headphones on so i can Watch it in peace
Wasn’t this an absolutely divine movie ? Thank you for sharing this 💕
It was swell! ❤
I wouldn't say "divine" . It was a sad and tragic movie from start to finish. Lol. Entertaining in a dramatically unpleasant way but "divine"? No. Good acting by the cast too.
Joan Bennett is a terrific actress in this. Her timing, agility with subtle mood changes, and voice control are first rate. She was also dynamite beautiful at 34-35 when this was made. My introduction to her was over 20 years later when she was in the Dark Shadows tv series.
I first saw her in DS also 😊
The look of diabolical glee she has to contain on her face when he confesses he’s married is friggin’ stupendous.
I knew her from DS too. I didn't think she was all that great of an actress. But seeing her in films has proved me wrong.
Been a Joan Bennett fan for probably 50 yrs since I first discovered her on late night in the 70s ...first as a Blonde and then with her darker tresses.. Please watch The Reckless Moment (49) perhaps her strongest performance in a Film Noir. Bennett's eldest daughter, Diana, said she was very much like the character "Lucia" in the film. It's a riveting performance that should have earned an Oscar nod. RM has since become a Film Noir Cult Classic too.
She gave a slutty performance in this picture
I love the dialogue in this movie. It feels really authentic the way the actors perform it. Nothing feels forced.
It's hardly realistic, and frequently comedic
@@danwroy its a sign of those times
It's called acting unlike today's tripe.
Watching Edward G. Robinson acting is as closing you can get to real life. Key Largo, Old man cry wolf are among my favorites.
For a laugh, watch it again with the captions on- they are all wrong and funny.
I grew up watching movies, 50 years ago being a teen. Mom, dad, and me were the movie fans. Edward G was the huge star, one of the few greats.
Edward G Robinson didn't possess the looks and physique of a Hollywood matinée Idol, but he brought a hell of a lot to movies.
River Gold “the man of a thousand faces” he was known as. He could play any character.
Key Largo
The Woman in the Window
So true. There were so many great character actors and actresses during the 20's,30's, and 40's.
watch him in Double Indemnity.... the greatest movie ever made.
What a movie. I've never seen an ending like this before.
Who is the good guy? Who is the villain? Who do we route for? What do we learn? Ultimately, it's just that humans are powerfully emotional and fragile creatures. We're tragically selfish, easily manipulated and ruled not be logic, but by the moment. The moment. What is truly more timeless than moments of great intensity of feeling? And in the end, how often do these movements lead to something so regretful?
This is story telling.
I hate that some people is not like that
a lonely man and a devious woman... way too many have fallen under their spell...
Wow ! Came here after watching the brilliant "M" from 1931 and the not-so-brilliant "Human Desire" from 1954. One of the most remarkable films I have ever seen. The cinematography is incredibly good. Edward G Robinson is outstanding as Chris, a decent, kind, talented but gullible man who gets led astray by two evil petty criminals. He often played gangsters and bad guys but in reality he loved art, did his own paintings and spoke seven languages. I found myself rooting for him, wishing he would see the light about nasty Kitty. Chris shows how loneliness can lead a person to find unsuitable partners, as was the case with both nagging Adele and Kitty. Dan Duryea and Joan Bennett are also excellent, as are all the minor characters. Chris sort of gets away with murder but is plagued by guilt and living on the streets, so he too is being punished. Fritz Lang clearly had a dim view of humanity and a particularly low opinion of women. One good deed takes place near the end of the film, in which Chris's life is saved. I was also impressed with how well the film recreated the mid 1930s when it is set, although it was shot in 1945. This is a remarkable film, quite unlike anything else I have seen, 10 out 10 for me. Thanks for uploading it.
Me, too!
Excellent comment, Autumn.
"A dim look on humanity."
With that perspective, a great movie was made.
🎞️
I'm watching this movie now, on the movie channel.
Little Ceasar is up next.
WOW !!!! what a jewel ! Why the so called directors of today don't learn from Fritz Lang..... Rest in peace Master....
Hitchcock and Karlof are also great.Checkout Alfred Hitchcock presents here on YT.
The genius of Fritz Lang with a supurb supporting cast.
As a serious artist, I have long been troubled by the bad art that is usually shown in movies about art. This is one of those fortunate exceptions. The paintings shown are by the American artist John Decker, who did not receive recognition as a fine artist during his lifetime, but his works are now highly regarded.
Yes John, and the "selfportrait" is beautiful.
@@yutub6928 I completely agree! One of my favorites that are shown in the film.
🤣
He changed his name on moving to America in 1921. He was born Leopold von der Decken in Berlin. His parents emigrated to England two years later. He was interned during WW1 as an enemy alien. Among Hollywood stars who commissioned him to paint their portraits were Errol Flynn, Greta Garbo, and John Wayne.
Twelve paintings created for the film by John Decker were sent to the Museum of Modern Art in New York City for exhibition in March 1946. My favorite of Decker's is the John Wayne portrait. (See wikipedia)
Edward G. Robinson is among the finest actors to ever appear in motion pictures.
I finished the second half of this film today, and I am in awe at Fritz Lang's direction and the writers' story.
This had me stressing with suspense the whole time. That climax, and the ending . . . chilling!
I'm 26 and my preferences always sticks with the classics, it's soo intriguing 😁
Joan Bennet is absolutely stunning. She exudes class,femininity, and confidence simultaneously. I first discovered her on the Gothic 60's soap opera "Dark Shadows"....What an incredible woman..
She came from a family of actors, obviously took to it like a duck to water, her lush looks around 1940- were so pretty incredible.
She also exuded smoke like a car with a coolant leak .
Сколько отзывов об актёре и ни слова об Ингрид Бергман.Фильм может и снят Росселини из-за неё. Италия прекрасна!
Fritz Lang was a genius and Edward G. Robinson, Joan Bennett and Dan Duryea were perfectly cast in this classic film.
Since almost the beginning of time people love to hear stories . It stimulates your mind your imaginations far better than any special-effects Hollywood can come up with ..

Wonder if it's a good thing (watching movies). So much images collected an' stuck deep our brain that shalt represent a heavier burden tae get rid off the day we'll ask ourselves the fundamental question : "Who am I ?"
@@jaidenabbott1419 or
Excellent print of a classic film by a master director.
i feel like this is a masterpiece but also the saddest movie i've ever watched. It's almost painful to see what is done to Chris, from his passion being squashed by his own wife, to being manipulated by Kitty who was already being manipulated by Johnny, and then having a "safe" place for his art (his passion) to having that ripped away from him when his art is being sold for money by kitty. All of this made even sadder by the fact that Chris knew in his intuition that Johnny was a bad person, and if only he had given it more thought before he might have seen what was happening.
I agree! It was almost traumatizing to watch, and then I laugh to myself because I know it didn't really happen. The crazy thing is, a modern movie with hd and all the effects can't inspire that inner conversation like this old b&w
Spoiler. Big time.
I shouldn't have read this before watching the movie 😂😂😂
After Edward set up the first husband, he should've thought, "Whew! Dodged a bullet", tipped his hat and kindly walked away. Extra rare is that Chris got away with murder. That rarely happens in films, even today.
Well said--a poignant masterpiece.
There is nothing like these movies the plots and storylines without any need for special effects except good camera work is incomparable. 👏👏👏❤
Sooooo true! Intelligent, interesting and mesmerizing without constantly using bad language to make a point. Today most movies have language that’s so repetitive and slow paced. I love the old movies snappy dialogue.
Personnage naïf et triste fin
One of my favourite films - Lang was a genius.
One of my favorites too!
The cinematography is gorgeous. You capture so much more texture in BW than you ever do in color. And those textures really contribute to the mood in every scene
Absolutely!
I have to argue that well-made colour films can grab texture and mood very, very beautifully - But B+W films, well-shot, have exactly the beauty and subtlety that you describe. I have always loved B+W films, and find it pathetic when people refuse to watch a movie just because it isn't in colour.
If you like B and W, I have to ask if you've seen Stanley Kubrick's The Killing from the 50s. The story of a heist at a horse track. That is a mood film all the way.
Some say that color can be a distractor too and sometimes tend to agree. There's a film by Bela Tar named "A Torinoi lo", A horse from Turing with a stunning photography. The pace can be very slow at times and very depressing. Maybe not so suitable for when you are in confinement, but anyways. Best regards.
You are so right!! I almost prefer the luminous quality that old unrestored black and white movies had:)
Classic film noir, very noir. It’s rather a bizarre plot, based on unlikely circumstances, but the characters, the dialogue and the acting are compelling. Joan Bennett is divinely gorgeous, Dan Duryea is a most convincing wide boy (reminds me of a boyfriend I once had) Adele is a seriously raucous old harpy and Edward G. Robinson holds it all together with his superlative portrayal of pathetic, downtrodden sensitivity and thwarted aspirations.
You took the words right out of my mouth!
Ah bon ? Toi, tu trouves Joan Bennett belle ? Et bien, tu n'es pas difficile.... Je suis sûr que tu es plus belle qu'elle. A vrai dire, je ne pense pas parce que pour avoir eu dans ta vie un gigolo minable et puant qui ressemble à Dan Dureya, et bien je ne te félicite pas et tu perds tout ton charme ma chérie....
It's not bizarre, unless you're a soulless drone just passing through life. This is a very timeless story
Joan Bennett is my favorite actress! I saw her first on Dark Shadows when I watched it every day after school. She was still beautiful and graceful in the late 60’s!
Rita: Kate Jackson from Charlie's Angels was on Dark Shadows as well.
The movie is about the consequences of a lack of self respect.
Wow. That was incredible! They simply don’t make movies like this anymore. So sad, so inventive. A masterpiece....
Snuck up on me too, ditto.
But how can you be sure this masterpiece was really directed by Fritz Lang, after watching this movie?
the ending has German Expressionism written a over it
I absolutely love film noir, I've seen dozens and dozens of them. But this one always stands out to me, it has absolutely everything, and the ultimate tragic ending. All three of them suffered in one way or another. This is Fritz Lang at his best. So glad I found this on your site. Keep finding these gems can't thank you enough, I haven't seen this in probably 20 years. It's got to be my all-time favorite film noir thanks again
Can you give me a top 10 of your favorite film noir film?
@@imeneouami4015 sorry I didn't see this earlier but here's a few that I like, Scarlett street, sweet smell of success, Touch of Evil, detour, the prowler, the lady from Shanghai, night and the city, nightmare alley The Killing, The Naked Street, too late for Tears, pushover, Sunset Boulevard if you consider that film noir which I can see why people wouldn't. This is a decent list many many more but not a stinker in one of these oh also the third man and The Stranger
@@imeneouami4015,
I can give you one: “Laura” (1944).
There’s another Gene Tierney/Dana Andrews noir that I didn’t love, like Laura, but it’s ok. It’s called “Where the Sidewalk Ends” (1950).
I highly recommend several other Gene Tierney films:
“Leave Her to Heaven” (1945);
“The Mating Game” (1951);
“The Ghost and Mrs. Muir” (1947);
“Heaven Can Wait” (1943).
Check IMDb for noir movies. William Powell did a few.
I love these old movies, everything,mother acting , script, language, music, clothes....everything about them
Joan is gorgeous in this film and Dan always plays a rat better then any other actor. And of course Robinson is class.
Ah bon ? Tu la trouves belle, toi ? Moi pas. Elle est d'une beauté commune.
@@danielgiraud1118 D’accord. She is no great beauty.
@@Caocao8888: : In mah arms bro' or Sis ! Thou hath good taste. Joan has a venomous beauty az she's just stepped out o' Charles Baudelaire' Poems. A woman who has one lover iz an angel, a woman who has two lovers iz a monster, a woman who has three lovers iz a woman.
@@danielgiraud1118 Baudelaire would have appreciated “Scarlet Street” better than I. He was very fond of ze working woman.
@@Caocao8888: Thou art pretty right Chuck ! He (Baudelaire) told me the same last night on mah surrealistic pillow between two a-coughin" pipe dream's poisonous rhymes blew out but Him, he didnae "blew it" ! Get it ?
Incredible movie - Not a dull moment from the first moment on - watching these mid century films make me want to jump back in time - the dialogue would not work today and that makes the films more compelling.- Joan Bennett is now my newfound actress, and Fritz Lang my newfound director... KUDOS to all! BRILLIANT...
You took the words right out of my mouth , sir ! Stupendous movie !
These are truly the
movies that keep
the interest of the
viewer and after the
movie is over you
are still thinking
and talking about it.
It all comes down
loneliness,fantasy,
love,greed,deceit,
lies,insecurity,and
2 lazy people who
wanted what did not
belong to them.
A trusting,lonely old
man who wanted a
young woman to love
him.
I have see real live
cases as such,except
no murder involved.
Great cast, what an
actor,little in stature
he was,but tall he
was as an ACTOR.
He was an artist,
did some beautiful
paintings during his
acting career.
This are the movies
Worthwhile waiting
for....
Thank you.
Lang is a great director. The woman in the window by him starring the two stars is great.
@@christenasmalls6118Yes, both of these Lang pictures are outstanding. They stand up to countless viewings.
Isn't it funny how Karma works? Movies today can't touch these movies.
Limitless (2011) had the worst endings of all time. Betrayed the book.
More to satisfy the production code that karma - i knew she would have to "pay" for her actions - what a sultry lewd performance by JB.
"than" karma
Karma is wishful thinking invented by people who can't bear the thought of the guilty going free.
@Beautiful Human Beings Yeah well believe whatever you want. That idea cant be proven or disproven. Sort of like if I told you I'm God and I control everything that happens, including your thoughts. I implanted that ridiculous idea of past lives into your head just so I could have a good laugh when you wrote it. Disprove that.
I got goose pimples at the end. Fritz Lang was an absolute genius.Thank you so much for sharing this masterpiece.
Friz lang also did westerns and 3 come to mind are the sequel to Jesse James 1939 is the return of frank james with Henry Fonda also western union with randy Scott and my favorite of his westerns called Rancho notorious with the great Marlene Dietrich. All excellent.
Je suis tout à fait d'accord avec toi.
You need to find something better to do with your empty life.
I love classic films. They seem so natural and well acted.!
Watching these old movies just helps take my mind off all the garbage going on in the world. Takes me back to better times in US.
thank you. my words exactly. time to get off the social media bullshit grid and go back to classic art and critical thinking.
@@chrisdodt 💯
He was just walking dead at the end so tortured by his guilt just another great performance by Edward g Robinson
Back to the Bowery. As his painting is being sold for $10,000. The newspapermen were right about right in here (the heart and soul).
This is one of the greatest movies ever made.
It's a nice little noir drama with the always evil Dan Duryea and the sexy moll Joan Bennet but I wouldn't go that far.
It's one of best films, albeit underated, by the master of noir Fritz Lang
@@prettyrebel3001 Just two here, though the first was some ten years ago, and I liked it so much. I'm watching more films than ever while this COVID-19 confinement lasts. Stay safe and keep well.
@@prettyrebel3001 These actresses and actors worked really hard to maintain higher standards. Also, we can take glances at places and uses already gone. A real treat.
Je suis d'accord avec toi.
Thank you for posting this film. I have never seen before. Another example of the range Mr. Robinson had.
story1951 this film shows what an excellent character actor Mr Robinson was. Many actors play themselves.
Fun fact: When Robinson and Bennett go into Tiny's bar, we hear 'Melancholy Baby', which would remind any trouper of the tradition of drunk hecklers demanding it. That originated in 1912 when the writer Damon Runyon, a notorious soak, was in a club and yelled all through a singer's act that he wanted to hear 'Melancholy Baby'. The singer he interrupted was William Frawley, the future Fred Mertz of 'I Love Lucy'.
The song's lyrics comment on Bennett's state, Robinson's inchoate wish to have someone simpatico to take care of, and (to those who know the tradition) the danger of disruption of regular life. 'Melancholy Baby' became almost as big an object of dread inviting showbiz disaster as saying the true name of 'the Scottish play'.
Thank you for the fun fact! I had no idea. This is such a great film! 👍
RIP sir Fritz Lang you were a genius
It must be so defeating to be an interesting abstract painter whose works are stuck in the hallway while his wife keeps up her old lover's pretentious portrait in the living room. This movie has such great touches, large and small.
"I'm not crying! I'm laughing!"
The story is truly sinister from that point on. Who else here thinks that Scarlet Street has one of the scariest, most skin crawling endings of all time?
This is my favorite film noir and a masterpiece. I've watched it once and will probably never see it again. The story is absolutely brutal.
@@scottziegler4238 Because of your reply, my Mom now wants to see the movie! And I'm going to be watching it a second time myself!
@@seeingbystarlight I hope she likes it! I'm working my way through all of Fritz Lang's movies, and I'll watch it again when I get to the mid 40s.
@@scottziegler4238 I too would like to watch all Fritz lang's movies .where can I find, any idea... all not available in RUclips
There is a companion film to this, also directed by Fritz Lang with Robinson and again Joan Bennet, called The Woman in the Window. There is a remake being made now with Gary Oldman. This is a remarkable two films because in The Woman in the Window, which also revolves around a painting, there is a similar sinking to the depths over a younger woman. However it has AN AMAZING SURPRISE ENDING. If you like this movie here, YOU MUST SEE THE OTHER ONE. Fritz Lang, Edward G. Robinson, Joan Bennet.
Joan Bennett was among the most beautiful actresses of the 20th century
Yes she was! She looked like a live doll. She was originally a blonde! Also see her in Woman in the Window. Gorgeous!
Ah bon ? Moi je la trouve laide. Aucune profondeur.

What a meaningful film. Bad deeds do not go unpunished, even if one is compelled by victimhood.
This was indeed a good movie
What a great movie! Just as good as "The Woman in The Window". As usual, great performance by Edward Robinson and Dan Duryea.
Just watched The Woman in the Window. About to watch this. Looking so forward to it.
Think I like this one better. They are both great.
@@Edward-jn5pl I agree. Scarlet Street has a better plot. And yet, they are both excellent.
Great director ‘Fritz lang’ who made these two films wanted ‘Scarlet street’ to have the ending that ‘The woman in the window’ didn't, ie the dream, he did not like the cop out ending. Both great films, not a lot between them.
Don't forget Joan Bennett.
Kitty's first scene with Chris shows how Joan would have been as Scarlett O'Hara had she won the role.
I have just found out Susan Hayward auditioned for the role of Scarlett O'Hara. I loved the Ms. Hayward's deep voice.
Vivian LEigh did an ashtonish performance and was perfect in the part.
This actress would not be has good. SOrry but it wouldn't...
Also is less captivating...
There was something in Vivien Leigh eyes back then... she became that tempteress flirty young woman that though she was smart - witch she was - but only for business, never f love. She didn't grown up love wise. Just grown as a woman facing hardship.
Having read the comments first, I'm getting popcorn ready for a nice friday of COVID-19 quarantine and old movies. Regards.
Same here but on Saturday.
And I'll bet you weren't disappointed. 4/2020
@@patrickryan1515 Not at all. Thought it was a great film.
😊👏👏👏
Good for you! Go Ildefonso!
One.of Lang‘s very best American films & it does not cop out like the denouement of THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW. Harsh as SCARLET STREET is on its protagonist it plays its tale out with an honest inevitability.
This is absolutely one of my very favorite of favorites movies, Miss Lazy-legs how could you not love her? The paintings, who painted them, they're so fabulous. I love them, I love this 1940's Style!
Someone else on here said they were painted by John Decker for this film, and displayed at the MOMA in NYC in March 1946.
Edward G. Robinson really surprised me in this one! Terrific Film from Fritz Lang.
This movie is a masterpiece ., but very sad . But in reality these things happen in this strange world . . Thank you for sharing .
Surprisingly good movie - great twists & turns in the tale - brilliant acting & a frighteningly creepy ending with loud haunting music dominating the scene as the Kitty self-portrait picture is being carried out of the painting gallery - Wonderful Stuff - my rating 9/10
Robinson was a brilliant dude, he spoke languages. Love the sets, the pace, the old styles from my granddad's era and the cigars and cigarettes have mercy
FYI - Twelve paintings done for the film by John Decker were sent to the Museum of Modern Art in New York City for exhibition in March 1946.
I always wondered about those paintings..where are they now?..who did them?..were they merely props?..Would love to own the Joan Bennett portrait. might even pay 10.000 dollars for it :)
This is a fantastic movie, great acting, chemistry, directing, script, storyline and atmosphere. Thanks for uploading.
Fritz Lang un genio del Cine, esta película la he visto como 4 veces. Gran Película!!
Just watched this last night. For me one of the best old movies ever. And I've seen a lot! From silent movies to golden age Hollywood classics. This is exactly the kind of movie that I need in my life.
Five seconds into the film and I already love it.
This film is a masterpiece F.Lang is brilliant the characters are so real.
No swearing in these old movies, and acting is superb.
My Mother watches all of these old black and whites. This one came on television the other day and I had to come find it. My goodness, Kitty, Chris and Johnny are spectacular!!! Superb acting!
A great actor and a beautiful actress. Enjoyed watching the movie.
What a thoroughly dark and depressing movie, brilliant none the less. No happy ending for anyone here.
Classic film noir starring Edward G. Robinson, Joan Bennett, and Dan Dureya. I love these 1940s b/w movies. Thanks for sharing Scarlet Street. 🎥🎞
idk who you might be or at what stage of life you are in... do not be a simp, have self-respect and self-love.
i've seen men/women lose their flicker of life, their money, their joy and health over a person that did not deserve to be even looked at.
nice movie by the way! thank you so much for this! ❤
This is a follow up to the film noir classic "The Woman in the Window" starring the same cast and also worth watching... Joan Bennett and Edward G. Robinson are so good together!
I just watched it yesterday! And today this one:)
Thrown in Dan Duryea and you've hit the jackpot!
Odd. I just watched that one the day before and I was thinking about the similarities!
@@rahkinrah1963 ~ Before I properly got interested in old black and whites,
I thought the two were the same movie! Of course, now I know better.
I couldn’t agree more 😀💯
what a good movie, Dan Duryea is such an underrated actor.
He was good at playing low life characters, which was what he did 90% of the time
@@edwinmunoz3817 by all accounts he was a good man in real life.
I love TCM and classic movies because there's so much beauty and romance and drama that is so mesmerizing to the soul
Joan Bennett looking very pretty in this and acting her socks off. Edward G Robinson is a very good lead too. Great print!
The ambience of the FN of those times, the nights in the city, the sense of mystery and darkness, something you don't see in today's movies.
Around the 4:40 mark the "superstition" referred to is the 3rd cigarette (or cigar) to be lit by the same match superstition. Commonly known as "Three on a match" , it dates from at least around World War I, possibly earlier. The thought was that if there was a group of men smoking at night, an enemy sharpshooter would first be alerted to the location of the men by the first cigarette (or cigar) lit, the 2nd lit would allow the sharpshooter to hone his aim, and upon the lighting of the 3rd smoke, the he would take the shot. In other words, misfortune befalls the third person to light his cigarette with the same match.
Thanks.
I didn't know that, thanks!
Oui, tu as parfaitement raison. C'est ce que je disais dans les tranchées en 1914 à mes collègues dans les tranchées....
Thanks! There's also a movie called '3 on a Match' - looks interesting.
@@mariaw7988 : Hey Peggy Sue ! Thou got me wrong. Thou got the wrong recipient, Hon. I am nae kev3d.
Fantastic film . These actors could really act .
In a word: brilliant. Joan B is up there with Bette, Olivia, Joan and Barbara. No one can play a heel (with charm) better than Dan D. Edward G anchors the entire enterprise.
What a great find, super film, just love the film noirs of the 40's and 50's!
What a strange ending, especially for the time. A haunting "burn in hell" "no one escapes justice" "crime doesn't pay" finale is a common motif for films of the era, but the way it plays out in this one is unlike any other I've seen.
dark dark dark ending, I love this movie
Excellent movie. The writer were brilliant in the 30's and 40's. I could watch them all night. The acting was the top of its level.
Can't wait to see this cool classic 1 more time. Storyline never gets old ❤❤👍👍
Yes keep watching
my most humble respect to the uploader, this a real masterpiece. thanks
Great movie! Little wonder I grew up the way I did. I always watched these noir flicks as a kid, and now, at 66, watching them again! Thanks!
I never really liked Edward B Robinson but this movie has changed my mind! He was brilliant! I was entranced by his performance!!! I know it is just the movie but I actually feel that those two got what they deserved!!! Loved the movie!!! Love the artwork!!
See him in "Key Largo" with Bogart...!
See him in DOUBLE INDEMNITY 😊
Watch
The woman in the Window...and
The Stranger😊😊😊
@miaflyer2376 😯 oh yes he is magnificent in Key Largo, ...the best character in the movie.
Watch Edward G. In ALL MY SONS with Burt Lancaster
A sad ending . A simple guy like Criss deserves better.
One of the best noir movie ever :)
I love to watch olden age classic movies... Everything in those days is genuine and pure... When I was a teenager during late 80s and 90s everything we get we received it genuinely, things are different, we gt to knw and learn the things with satisfaction but now after internet and smart phone and technology advance the things are change alot... nothing is that precious like in those days... I missed 80s and 90s 😢😢
The storyline, performances & direction in these old movies are far superior to the present times.
Powerfully portrays what havoc ONE evil woman (Joan Bennett) can wreak in the life of ONE vulnerable man (Edward G Robinson). Shattering!
I've been watching RUclips for 10 years and have seen this film so many times I love old classics and this is a good one 💕
I download every great movie I can from here and elsewhere .
Oh, wow !!! This one gets an 'A triple plus' !!!
This is classic Hollywood right here. Some ppl just don't appreciate what it took to get where it's at today
One of my favorite movies on a raining day or night. The character Chris's journey into madness is well acted by Edward G. Robinson. Hey, pop the popcorn, pour my cola over cubed ice, grab a couple of Reese's cup, and my comfort pillow, and let me enjoy. Talk with you after the movie.
Gracias por compartir esta joya del cine negro. Qué pelicula despiadada, punzante, como una Crimen y Castigo del siglo XX pero sin redención posible.
Compare Robinson's character in Double Indemnity to the one in this movie. Wow. The contrast is stunning. He could be anybody.
Mr. Robinson has lot of talent
The ending was so beautiful and sad, and the characters were complex. I'd have liked Chris to get away with the murder (Katherine was cruel to him), but I guess bad deeds have to be punished at the end of a movie - which was part if its beautifully surprising ending.
In movies of that era crime never pays and those who commit a crime always get their just deserts. This movie deals with justice in a different, more complex way but the meaning is the same.
I'm torn because yeah murder is wrong but man did I not the least bit sorry when he killed Kitty nor for what happened to Johnny. Literal scum people. But also is it just me or does Chris seem like he's got some psychological issues? Earlier with the knife and his wife and then just how quick he snaps on Kitty.
Also, Woman in the window, classic, same actors. Thank you so much
