I love these older shows.....nothing made today even comes close !!! Keep 'em coming !! Thank you.
That's not true and you know it. N
@Mr Storni Not ONE movie in the last 30 years is as good as Mr. District Attorney. NONE as good as this movie....Mr. District Attorney. OK then! I stand corrected. N
There are good movies from every era. Luckily, we live in a time when we can choose from an increasingly huge selection. Back then you either saw it in the theater (or military establishment) or you didn't see it at all. That's why some people practically lived at the movies, because once the run ended, you wouldn't see it again.
the world needs to wear hats again
There are millions and millions of baseball caps; will that do?
I agree!! It would be nice if elegance came back into style
I like a fedora and wear one often, but please don't ask me to put on a jacket and tie.
@@389383 But most men wear their baseball caps backwards!!
@@reynaldoflores4522 There is a crying need for a double billed Baseball cap.
Screwball noir is a great hybrid, and this is a fine example, wonderful dialogue and characterization.
Screwball yes, noir no...but it's GREAT screwball. I laughed all the way through. Delightful!
I believe that other movies follow this order. My favorite is "The Great Hotel Murder", 1935. Maybe that film is not exactly Noir, it is splendid, with acting by Edmund Lowe, and a funny script, it moves right along.
This is, for me, the best performance of Peter Lorre I have seen so far and I have already watched about 65 movies with him or more, because I love him!
Here he is absolutely perfect! Every move he takes, even every eyeblink he does is finest performance!
I do not know, why my previous comment was not accepted, maybe because I told something about racism and homophobia, but this is true for this movie too. The movie itself is not one of the best, but Peter Lorre makes it outstanding!
I love 30s/40s crime comedy and I think this one just became one of my top five favorites. It's delightful. I laughed a lot, from the early scenes on through, and when I wasn't laughing I was grinning.
I was born in 53 and remember my mom was a big on wearing hats back in the 50's and 60's. Looking through her closet a few years back those were some wild hats.
i thought this was a lovely fun movie. then, here comes peter lorre. anyone from my time realizes, he is a super heavyweight. this is just awesome.
That first line: I wish my husband were here! And the man says "I'll bet he doesn't!" 🤣🤣🤣👍
I really love these old movies. They just don't make them like they used to. Hahaha, I'm sure you guessed that was coming.
Yep, they don't make them like used to... hahaha. It's so funny to see people pining away for the good old days. I really enjoyed watching this though. A nice glimpse into the past.
Great look, great feel. Perfect Film Noir. And a great ending. I think "His Girl Friday" is the best of the genre, but this one holds up. And Peter Lorre, well, is Peter Lorre.
It's a delightful screwball crime comedy, but don't believe everything you read in the descriptions; it's not film noir.
@@dontaylor7315Correct. Not Film Noir. You got me to go look that up. Never believe all the comments, they don't always know what they are talking about.👍
Great movie! Peter Lorre is so sinister!
Too bad he was so typecast by Hollywood. He was also for a time Mr. Moto.
"Save me some of the White Meat!" - woah, didn't see THAT coming! Great flic, thanks CCC!
She's got a lot of energy. Keep that guy busy for the rest of his life.
She nailed it! i love that line & the way she said it & the fact that she is an older lady, perfect! 🤗
Yeah times before now people werent consumed with racist thinking seeing issues everywhere.
@@doreekaplan2589 Don't believe it! Ragingly unapologetic racists were plentiful.
Great show, thank you!
Born to a name like that, I guess the poor guy had no other career options….
Man this one has taken the cake couldn't have been better
Super show. Thanks for your work in finding quality productions.
A neat little movie. Much better than many pretentious ones. I didn't read the cast list, and when someone suddenly appeared, I was SOOO pleasantly surprised.
Not film noir, but lots of fun!
Old movies like this you can’t go wrong
A remarkable feat in its own right. A hybrid of Noire and Scewball the likes of which I cannot recall. Truly entertaining!
It's a delightful screwball crime comedy, but don't believe everything you read in the descriptions; it's not film noir.
Try Topper Returns with Roland Young.
❤
Nice movie with a clear copy. Thanks!
One of the best car chase scenes in the history of a crime drama. Lol
Screwball for sure. Fun for sure. I kept picturing, in my minds eye, Eve Arden as the secretary, but she would have upstaged everyone in this film. Peter Lorre always scares the bejeezus out of me, even in his short appearance in this movie. O'Keefe and Rice are a super good team together. The scene towards the end, where they both wear each others hats, is a joyous mimi-masterpiece of timing and comedy. I enjoyed the black man at the hotel switchboard referring to himself as Africa, but deplored the part he was assigned to play, even though he made the best of it, and did a fine job. P.S. This movie is not Film Noir.
Film noir means it's black and white. It's some foreign language.
@THOMAS GANSEVOORT You're right, it's not noir, just really delightful screwball comedy.
@@garrysekelli6776 Film noir is not a synonym for B&W. Several other elements have to be in place to make it noir.
@@dontaylor7315 nior means black i do believe. french maybe. and a Noir film is a mystery that is filmed purposefully with many dark shadows etc.
I like this 1941 film better than the 1947 one.
An easy fun comedy
Great casting for a romantic comedy to boot.
A seeming stage play brought to screen and into our living room for pure entertainment.
Very very good ! Thank you. Screwball and Noir combine very well. O'Keefe is a surprise but works great for this kind of mix.
It's a delightful screwball crime comedy, but don't believe everything you read in the descriptions; it's not film noir.
Dennis was funny in Topper Returns
Lol save me some of the white meat lol I nearly spit out my coffee ☕ that was hilarious.
I absolutely love these old movies 💚🤭.
Thanks for posting tis crazy film. How much smarter people appeared to be , then ; wearing decent hats , not baseball caps back to front .
Smarter or more uniform, less individual?
@K Kr Just a different uniform. People still conform.
@@kalburgy2114 true, wear your baseball cap backwards to show you are a rebel but you are doing the same thing as everyone else, so no you aren't a rebel just following peer pressure like a sheep
Stuck at home in a blizzard watching a movie I've not seen before. 1 of the better 1s.
Peter Lorre is an great actor, often underated
How would you know that?He had a very long and successful career.
@@keithharvey7230 Agree ! It was a silly remark
I JUST LOVE THE WAY PEOPLE BOTH MEN AND WOMEN DRESSED.
With a costume designer anyone would look well dressed.
I've seen the guy salesman selling the hat in another movie recently,and,for some reason he puts me in the mind of a young Dom Deluise
It’s Grady Sutton.
Grady has been in many, many films! 🤩
I never thought of that before but you are right
That hat salesmen probably never dreamed that the time will come when 95% of men will not wear hats anymore. But baseball caps---- backwards!!!
@@reynaldoflores4522 Men wear hats to avoid skin cancer, another thing he probably didn't know about.
Oh, as far as I’m concerned that old lady is the star of the show and she should receive an Oscar for her performance in the movie. It started when she told the young woman to shut up because she was giving her an appetite. 😂😂😂😋😋😋
I love her too!
Wonderful, hidden gem! Great writing ("leave some white meat for me" 😂) & acting, plot & all, simply a joy 👍👍
Great entertainment. Thanx for sharing.
A clever and charming storyline
Esse canal tem uma seleção de filmes TOP! Parabéns pelo trabalho!
What a cute movie! Thank you 🌷
YOU HAVE HEARD OF THE KEYSTONE COPS? WELL, THIS MOVIE HAD THE KEYSTONE DEPUTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY.
DON'T KNOW WHY I SET THE REMINDER FOR I SEEN THIS MOVIE MANY TIMES.
What a good movie👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
GREAT FILM NOIR!
It's a delightful screwball crime comedy, but don't believe everything you read in the descriptions; it's not film noir.
Excelent Movie! Thanks for sharing..
true screwball. loved this 1941 movie. thanks
Florence was great and this was overall better than the previous Dennis O'Keefe 'Mr. District Attorney' effort.
Screwball Noir. What a great combo. And Harry Amsterdam.
It's a delightful screwball crime comedy, but don't believe everything you read in the descriptions; it's not film noir.
@@dontaylor7315 it is noir it's black and white film without colors.
@@garrysekelli6776 B&W films aren't necessarily film noir. Film noir includes other elements - like moral ambiguity, chiaroscuro cinematography, a femme fatale and/or influences of German expressionism to name just a few.
Ahhh those old cars - as soon as I win the lottery. I 'drooled' over Barret's car (just after 52:30). Wow-wow-wow 😍
The world needs to wear all the wardrobe from pumps to hats to stockings
Thanks for the upload
Very enjoyable!
Fun and thoroughly enjoyable.
Un film cu replici extrem de inteligente și un umor curat
Un film Absolut Senzațional tradus în limba română Excelent ❤
Nice to see Peter Lorre in a Republic production, Republic may have been criticized as a low budget production company in its time but decades have proven that it deserves more credit than it got. In this day and age of TIKTOK super short clips. time for classics by Republic to rise to the occasion.
Definitely a minor picture but pleasant enough. The opening titles are reminiscent of those used in the Republic westerns of the era.
very good movie, thank you! Ron USA
THE PROBLEM WITH THIS - one of the problems - is the great peter lorre is in this movie all by his lonesome. dfennis o'keefe, a very under-rated actor
Agree … love Dennis o’keefe
thank you
Very good! 😁
Great movie... Loved it.. great actors... Not like today,s actors...
No, different. EVERY generation is different.
❤️ the performers
Good film for a rainy day in!
I thought of 'noir' as dark, which is what the word means. This is just funny.
lol! I forgot Peter Lorre was in the movie.
So lawyer and court scenes must be in this movie ! Hai friends !!! Thanks CCC !!!👸
Good afternoon Helen and all in CCC universe hope you're having a wonderful day hope to see you all later 😊🤗🍿🖑.
Good afternoon Helen and Freddie! 👍
🍩hi helen
@@mikesilva3868 Hi Mike!
@@mikesilva3868 !!U r a happy man !! I am enjoying in your words! Thanks Mike !!👸
Good one
If you want a hidden gem,watch "The mask of Demetrios" What a movie!!
Thank u
Everything's been said , I got nothing 😢. All I can do is agree 😊.
Norma Varden,the shop assistant early in the film.I always thought she had such a lovely nice face.
Anything with Mr. Lorre😊😊😊😊😊😊
I loved it
Not to be found in the credits, but as in literally thousands of films over the last 100+ years, Los Angeles plays Itself.
It's not a speaking part, though, so uncredited. More of a cameo of a well recognized character actor in many of the shows. :)
Good Movie
He is Risen!
hello brothers and sisters
Hello Paolla! 👍 👍
@@hamburgareable hey
Buena película
Nu e nici o dramă...nici o crimă....e o comedie savuroasă😊
I've only lived in NYC for most of my life. Were there palm trees and twisty roads in Manhattan before I was born?
58:46 One of the Best child stars of all time: Tommy Cook 💖
Aren’t there like 2 other movies with the DA in their titles? I remember one specifically which was quite successful but I just can’t remember it’s name😉
One is The Shaggy DA. Dean Jones 60s Disney flick.
There's noir DOA, similar title, with Edmund O'Brien.
@@notpurrfect6397 that’s the one I was thinking about, I know there’s still another one but O’Brien was such a good character actor, he was never acknowledged....😉🙄😻😻😻
@@notpurrfect6397 thanks!! See, I do give thanks...😉😹😹😹😹
@@johannahidalgo7738 : )
She wouldn't be able to hear their conversation hiding in the boot of the car.
Cold as a penguins beak! ♡
That's my hat beret choice. I chose in one second
Anúncio a toda hora !
I 2nd the motion, of droodog 127 ... The world does need to start wearing hats again!
This was made in 1941, the same year as The Maltese Falcon
Funny, there are two movies with the same name, 1941 and 1947, both starring Dennis O'Keefe
@imgettinby We have "Woman on the run", 1950, in B&W and color.
Beautiful time
You'll walk away happy from this one!
02:02 - That ten dollars would be equivalent to $195.58 today per USinfaltioncalculator.
You cant hear a conversation while in the boot of a car.x
Was there a seies Mr D,A, made by Monogram?
In a different timeline, this could have been a Harvey Dent movie.
I wonder if anyone can help. I have been desperately looking for a old film about a married women who has many admirers who constantly come to her home. Her husband is a very patient man and just allows her to live her adulterous life. Then he dies and goes to heaven. Wife continues to live her life until the day when she is also about to die. She sees the ghost of her dead husband and begs for his help and forgiveness, but he refuses and I think her fear sends her to down to hell. I can’t remember anymore about the film or who stared in it, but have been trying so hard to find it.
So many of this generations actors died from lung cancer, and when I see them smoking on screen, it just hurts to know that's what's coming for them.
How many of them died from lung cancer?
anyone tell me who the bad guy is
7:33 What? Funny how a certain party pretends this doesn't happen.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
No es en castellano pues lo siento mucho
It is 23 or 26 days before election, which is first week in Nov. So it is mid Oct. ADA Jones is there on his 3rd day, in court to prosecute 2 Santas. How is it joyous season in mid Oct in LA, that there would be 2 Santas out collecting money? You gotta love how Hollywood does not think.
ADA= ADiTYA 🌞 Alok 🌞
I got the notion that they were in San Francisco somehow.
@@389383 I thought LA, by tall bldg they showed. But then they talking NYC, weren't they?
@@aspenrebel Do I have to watch it again? Some of the outdoor scenes looked more LA, which makes sense.
@@389383 maybe filmed in LA but set in NYC. I recall one pretty bad TV Show, can't recall name. Plot was only P.I. in the Keys (Florida Keys). Some camera shots showed beach, ocean, palm trees. But sometimes camera turned and showed mountain peaks! (Guess must have been Mt. Miami!!). The show was filmed in Israel not in the Keys. Lucky if highest point of land above sea level in the Keys is 20 feet, maybe only 10 feet.
They could've laundered those hot $50s in Mexico for 25 cents on the dollar. Maybe more. ;)
