WOW! You will never see movies like this again just awesome1
As a retired truck driver, I can tell you this is one of the most amazing films I’ve ever seen very realistic
🤣🤣🤣🤣snowflake, Karen, Chad 😢😢😢😢
Salute! I rode with an older couple in their huge truck from TX to Canada, and I've never seen so many stupid people driving cars and jumping in front of us. Thank God for the Jake Brake!

Have you seen the film Hell Drivers (1957)? British film, a very good film. I think it is still on youtube.
@@highlightoftheday7058 Agreed. I juxtapose Thieves Highway, Hell Drivers, and Wages of Fear for three different nationalities of a similar theme
Very nice movie, makes you feel for the characters and its a joy to watch how trucking was back in 1949.
Lee J Cobb as a great actor. He portrayed a sob perfectly.
Valentina is so beautiful in this movie.
This great movie compares with Hell Drivers and other realistic truck films . Rigs are more comfortable and powerfull but the responsibility is the same for getting the goods to " market". I am a Scammell man. Thanks for this treat. Dave
WOW! GREAT MOVIE! despite the short time! Great acting by Richard Conte and Valentina Cortese,
Good watch. And no ads!
Very good film. Thank you for posting.
I live at the base of the Altamont pass. It's cool seeing the signs around the bay.
Tracy Ca is on the other side of the pass. Great movie. Those guys had it tough back in the day.
Thank you truckers. You keep America working.
Thanks, great flick. 30's and 40s were the best.❤
🌬💀🏴☠️
Great film. Conte was fortunate to get her at the end.
Pretty. Love how women dressed back then.
Thanks
Best movie by Jules Dassin. Valentina Cortese was awesome.
This was definitely good. But you should see "Rififi" before you make a claim like that.
Great film, so different. Well written.
A good movie with a happy ending. 😊
Nice wholesome film. No foul language,.,. really enjoy from start to finish.
Rarely do I watch a film anymore where the first four characters on film are impossibly loveable. I got hooked from Nickies homecoming. Loved this one. Soon in Conte's Nickie reminded me of two guys I know.
Watching from the largest and most powerful country in the world 🌍 and we love these old black and white movies! 🇷🇺
"Most powerful"? Hah, the best joke of the week! Maybe the most powerful in Asia. But not for long even there. Keep an 👁️ on your south.
@sebastianmartinescu1987 . It's called, watch your 6 and why aren't you watching the movie, instead of making a complete fool yourself and all of us fighter pilots are laughing at you 🇷🇺

Very stupid comment. Sorry, but what in hell does your nationalism have to do with anything? Go eat a dog: yummm
Largest in size but America has a much bigger population. Russia more land America much more people. Respect to Russia. Alot of Americans have Russian parents and ancestors. GOD BLESS ALL
Ty so much ❤❤❤❤great movie
Beautiful film!!’ ❤❤❤❤❤
I really like it. Jules Dassin was a great director. His film noirs were all very good, with Rififi by far his best.
Great Richard Conte film.
Thank you. A nice French lady ❤
I believe she was Italian... but they are neighbours so maybe she was from an area close to the border.
Good Movie...Conte and myself have something in common.....both from Jersey City NJ
Loved it, thanx
Another good one , same type movie......they drive by night
Another good one.
'they drive by night' is good too,
Mama loves the earrings. You can tell!❤❤❤
😄
Rich Conti is driving a rare Studebaker "Deuce and a Half" nice!
Produced in South Bend, Indiana, Studebaker factory.
GREAT!!!!!!!!
Ex-trucker here , thks .
My new crush, Richard Conte. Something about his face and demeanour.
he reminds me a bit of a basset hound - loyal persistent but with a tendency to get a bit droopy at times... which is as you say very cute (but I don't have a crush on him)
That was agreat story and cast very sad in places but enjoyable to watch ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great movie! More than 50 mph is doubtful in that military Studebaker. With budd wheels he only needed to drive the inside wheel up on a block of wood no jack needed but then the story line wouldn't work 🙂
Good movie!
26 minutes in and this reminds me of driving a truck.
Boring, tiring, and a hassle.
I can't watch any more.
But it's reasonably realistic, except for his Army truck doing 80 mph.
That "Mask"-is a Bantang Mask,-from Bali,-Indonesia,--they bring "Good-Luck"-and they scare the hell outa "evil-spirits"--Ive got one in my kitchen-!!--
Thanks for sharing... great detail.
i guess that's what they mean when they talk about the good old days of trucking. Oh, how we miss them.
Shume film i mire 👍 thuash se eshte Film Shqipetare 😂✨👍✨
And good old Percy Helton making an appearance at the end.
John Gabriel His mother played Jolsons mother in The Jolson Story.
All i wanted was to be a teamster...retired local 560 guy...union city nj.
predictable slow but WoW....what a ending!!!
I remember when Oakland's fruit market looked like this. Really not that long ago, 1990's. All gone now.
Great ending😊
Nick Garcos (Richard Conte) comes back from his tour of duty in World War II planning to settle down with his girlfriend, Polly Faber (Barbara Lawrence). He learns, however, that his father was recently beaten and burglarized by mob-connected trucker Mike Figlia (Lee J. Cobb), and Nick resolves to get even. He partners with prostitute Rica (Valentina Cortese), and together they go after Mike, all the while getting pulled further into the local crime underworld.
Release date: October 10, 1949
Big shot. You guys blow it everytime
Humphrey Bogart....George Raft....They Drive by Night. This movie is a copy of Bogie's & Raft's movie
Hollywood regularly made (and still makes) the same movie again and again by tweaking aspects of the story or by genre hopping. It's still a good film
Sweet revenge but didn't like the ending. Should have gotten his money and left the "working" girl.
No... they were made for each other, two people struggling to get out from under.🙂
I love the film I’m watching from Great Britain UK The best country in the world.
it was, till comrade starmer ruined it
What rock do you live under? Britain is a lawless, antisemitic, undemocratic, Islamic shithole that surrenders up its children for abuse and rape by Islamic perverts. Churchill wasted his time fighting the Nazis. They run Britain now without firing a shot. You're a moron.
A brief synopsis would have earned you my 'like'.
I believe that Highway must end where I live.
Conte was excellent in this.....and the sultry girl was much nicer
then that washed out blonde.
I totally agree
Wow Jack Oakie!
Get the popcorn.
Golden 🍏 Delicious

Whenever I watch this type of movie I understand how the US ended up with a Trump as President.
You know it !
They counted the 🌈 votes.
@@teenabrunk83Absolutely 🙏❤️🇺🇸
I know how you feel it is great to have President Trump back🎉.
After 8 years of that sexual pervert Clinton, 8 years of absolute zero from the dregs of society Obama, 4 years from possibly one of the worst criminals in the USA never mind the awfullest president in history.
And they expected the people to sink even lower and make a drunken, lieing, laughing maniac of a woman the next president.
So I can appreciate why you are so glad and happy for the Rightful President.
The Honourable President Donald Trump to lead the country back from the darkness of Biden and Harris hell,
Into the sunshine and glorious light, God Bless America.
And a Happy Christian Christmas to one and all. 🎄🇺🇸🎄🎅
Great statement!! That's worth a emmy!
Where did they get this poor mans Marlene Dietrich she's going to rob him and set him up!
BEWARE!

At 37.28 second truck is empty.
1:26 No explanation on how the flat tire got repaired....or did I miss something?
I have my feasible theories about the reformed society, instead of somebody becoming petty to big thief, leave percentages commissions kick backs out , that has become so much of norm worldwide as fee for doing ‘ work’ speedy and with fee attached, I am talking about street desperation of thievery, you give them before it starts and becomes a ‘ habit’ and those steps taken at right time of support goes long way of stemming what begins as desperation to survive, then a habit too hard to shake off, that’s all there it is to it, also if you have more than enough and catch somebody dipping in find out which category it is , desperation or greed , desperation should be let go with warning and what that need wants, because after all that was the motivation to take, greed on other hand should be punished so even with enough it’s a nasty bad habit which needs to be broken that is fair justice always remember the desperation of existence in various layers are being given by your so called grounded systems going bad to worse by your leaderships without understanding what human life is all about flaws mistakes all part of it , and till those layers are not sorted out this mess chaos is never going to end in fact much worse with fuels ending a reality in near future
Nick’s slashed tire miraculously fixed? Otherwise liked this movie very much
yes... good pick-up. I'm just as surprised that he got the girl in the end after the way they began, but that's the magic of the movies.
what kind of idiot jacks up a full loaded truck on soft sand to change a wheel
Wheres the prostitutes my dad was a trucker in the 60s and said all the truckers used working girls on long trips
This was the 40's and the censors wouldn't have allowed it
you mean to tell me dad never signed a receipt for the money, and Ed never had a bill of sale for the truck?? what kind of monkey business is this.??
Didn't have DOT or Troopers back then?
