This film needs to be discovered by more people. A gem of the first order.
And of course a fabulous young Jeremy Brett.
I heartily concur ! I just now watched it & enjoyed it very much. Wonderful script & cast !
I was so taken by Jeremy Brett that I took a screenshot of him in this movie, enhanced it, and uploaded it into the photos for the movie at IMDB.
Really well written. The Chief Inspector were spectacularly acted.
Indeed.
This is a fantastic film with so many golden actors. Thank you!
Excellent compliment. Thank you.
What a cracking British film from the early 1960s. Marvellous cast. Ian Hendry was a much underrated actor.
Hendry wasn't underrated but he hit the bottle and became unreliable so that he slid into movie oblivion and into forgettable television.
Indubitably !
Pity about the drinking. He had a presence.
I did not dislke, the movie, but it was very slow to get to the plot, and engaged into, the essence of the film. The intrigue in the beginning was, so dragged out... SORRY. Classed as not entertaining. 😬
@@None-zc5vg
He aged so much from the drinking, it was astonishing. Dead at 53 - looked 20 years older.
One does not need to be a Brit or English to enjoy this really good crime story. An excellent quality of picture, very interesting plot that keeps you glued to the screen, superb cast and ............unpredictable ending. Thank you very much!
I agree 100 per cent !
..Were seezy criminals wear Tuxedos, where nephomanics wear evening gowns .
Just like Vice Squad 😂
.. but better dressed.
This film is excellent from beginning to end.. The script is intelligent & shows that policemen actually can be human too. The cast is excellent. Ian Hendry & Ronald Frasier play off each other well as the principal detectives assigned to the murder investigation of a model. Jeremy Brett as the model's lover is 1st rate. Peter Arne who portrays Brett's artist brother is perfectly loathsome as is James Villiers as a beloved TV actor who was blackmailing the murder victim. Jane Asher, one time Paul McCartney flame, does well as Hendry' s daughter. Michael Truman who directed severel Secret Agent Man, Danger Man, & Saint episodes methodically builds the mystery to it's climax. Each scene leaves the viewer wanting to know more about each character & what drives them. Give this film a chance & it will surprise you.👍
It shows how British police can sometimes be human. It does not apply to American cops. Here unarmed British police capture an active shooter, quite different than the heavily armed police cowards at Ulvalde who stood by for 77 minutes to serve and protect themselves while their prey was shooting school children. Then it took a border patrol officer to break in and kill him.
Well said and well put. Totally agree !
@@jubalcalif9100 : Great to hear from someone who appreciates off beat films.✌😄
Heil Google and Wiki !!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well said! I loved it!
Great film. Not all from this era stand the test of time. This one certainly did.
It was fun seeing a young Jeremy Brett.
How right you are !
Classic. The high standard of conversation . decent sophisticated language.
And not a script with only swear words! So refreshing
@@kathyh4804 Oh, that is SO true ! Great gems like this prove that a film can be highly entertaining without the use of profanity or graphic sex/violence !
I love these 50’s and 60’s crime movies, thank you for sharing.
lucky smith ilove sharing my up loads from canada
These types of films and those decades are my fave !!
A great film to watch for those that love British detective movies ..... the acting is pretty realistic to everyday conversation .... I'm a Brit
Who......... just saying.
They could have carried on a tv series with this pair.
I'm an American and agree totally !
I love these old films, back when the main feature of the film was the story and the acting - not special effects! And back in the day when it was legal to cement broken glass onto the top of walls to stop burglars thieves, these days that is illegal because it could cause injury to the burglar.
Health and Safety gone mad!
London 60s scenery is just magic!
Very nice and clean
Certainly.. you are so right..!!!
We thought it would never end....
Great movie! What a nice surprise to see a young Jeremy Brett who was so easy on the eyes since he was a handsome lad! Then later in his life to become the Great Sherlock Holmes! Rest in Peace Jeremy Brett🙏
He was beautiful, even pretty dilfy in his 40s later on, you seen him as Maxim de Winter in the 1970s version of Rebecca.
@@alexisgrey3633 Impressive. Better than the other one. Olivier.
Only 2 Sherlocks, Basil & Jeremy. As there's only 1 Poirot, David.🎉
@@benjamlnlewis6836 One more" Christopher Plummer in Murder by Decree (a marvellous film with James Mason as a memorable Watson). They might have made more Holmes and Watson films but for Mason's untimely death.
A most excellent 60's British murder mystery. Well acted and great story line.
Right On !!
Flick Vault: Your movies are 1000% perfect conidtion. You are the new RUclips of quality, impeccability, care for historic documents, integrity and brilliant easy to recognize branding! Thanks a billion times for being you and sharing these incredible works of history, cause they are. Cheers from Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Word! Enjoying the films from The Netherlands.
@Creativabilities / You’re absolutely right in every word you wrote! Kind regards from Burlington, Ontario, 🇨🇦.
You meant 100% I think.
Ditto ! Love the xlnt quality !
Classic movie. Very good script. The Chief Inspector acted brilliantly. Great twist in the end. Why can't nowadays film makers can't find good stories like these old classics.
Soo true.
Very enjoyable - liked the interaction of the two detectives, and think the cinematography was brilliant! One of the better Flick Vault films....
You speak the truth, Kemo Sabe !
I love movies from this era, how everything is kept in the camera's focus, as opposed to today's cinematography where only the actor speaking is and everything else is blurred out. That seems to me more natural to the way we view the world. The lack of special effects means the actors must act (or fail in their efforts) instead of relying on computerized eye candy, which often detract's from the plot.
Excellent description! The actors these days look plastic with all their plastic surgery and injections! They could never emulate what actors pre 70s could, their facial expressions are destroyed
As I do when I take off my hat, you make a good point !!
Oh what a terrific film! You must watch!! A real whodunnit with brilliant actors and really modern pacing. Plus I loved the little peke dog.
Agree on all. And how the pup liked Birkett. The small things can add so much to a plot.
I'm crazy about these Brit 50s and 60s b&w thrillers. They go so well with a gin and tonic.
And a cigarette 😂
@@kathyh4804 Dunhills, naturally.
Lovely old film,kind of film that used to be on telly of a Sunday afternoon.Hendry and fraser both great character actors.
...both, heroic drunkards
Excellent in every way. I could easily see a series of movies with these characters.
Long gone are the days when only Drunken sailors had tattoos ! 😃😄😁😆😅😂🤣
ian hendry is such a great actor.second time i have watched this.just great thank you
5 minutes in and I love it! Great acting! Really gritty! One of the best movies I’ve never seen before!
I certainly have a notion to second THAT emotion !
Such a well crafted story. Wonderful atmosphere deserved a second view 10/10
So true.
Very enjoyable. I love these British films from the fifties and early sixties.
What a rare treat! I was not expecting this.
Love it. Thanks very much. Back when London was the greatest city in the world. It still is, only for all the wrong reasons. I’m glad I had the chance to experience it when it was great. You got another sub.
Vlodec
Thank you. You made my day ... and proved my point.
How can something be the “greatest” for all the wrong things? Greatest implies positivity.
How about "the greatest fool"?
@@dadodydo I would’ve said biggest fool
@@davidhull1481 Yes, you're right.
Ian Hendry was a powerhouse actor.
He was brilliant in The Hill
@@RuthFreeman-b6p He was, one of my favorite films.
Brilliant - the best performance I've seen by Ian Hendry - and some great 'noir' shots
Absolutely great...what a treat. Thank you Flick Vault!
My sentiments exactly !
This is such a gem of a channel, Huge thanks for all your uploads FV.
I too feel so blessed that I found out about this channel !
Great little mystery, well acted & written, thanks for the upload.
I'd like to add my thanks to FilmVault too !
Old British films are awesome!..."Turn the Key Softly" is another great one from the era... Yvonne Mitchell...They don't make ladies like that anymore...Great film!
A very high quality movie. Brilliant ! Thanks for posting it.
I feel the SAME way !
Jeremy Brett! that takes a person back! thanks for posting this flick
Jeremy Brett!!! Awesome, Young Sherlock.....
Absolutely brilliant portrayal of some of the arrogant people I had the misfortune to come into contact during the sixties .
Raymond Newton......Pray tell Raymond.....
I absolutely LOVE these characters. They feel so real. Did they make any more of these?
I was wondering about that too. The Chief Inspector & Sergent make a great team !
Oh my goodness! It's Jeremy Brett!!!!
And wasn't he a peach.
Ronald Frazier played Sgt. Saunders. A great character actor who played in many movies and TV shows. Liked him in "Flight of the Phoenix".
Yes ! As soon as I saw him, I remembered him from "The Flight of the Phoenix" ! And it was YEARS ago that I saw that 60s gem.
THANKS for posting, Flick! Oh, that sleazy heart of 1960's London!! cheers
Such a young Jeremy Brett!. Well crafted movie, down to the small details that matter. A pen with a mystery number, clever. Thanks for uploading.
Jeremy was in the 1955 film War and Peace.
@@keithharvey7230 Played Nikolai Rostov.
Thanks for sharing, Flick Vault!
Jeremy Brett - my, my!
You are very naughty person, with naughty thoughts....Shame on you.
So lovely see parts of London one knows ❤ Great film 🎥
Great little yarn, with wonderful twists along the way. Not sure how intentional it was, but watch the light-simple/dark-ornate contrast between the "good" folks and the "bad." Always lovely also to see London as it was and to compare it to the present day (you'll spot where the Tate Modern sits and even recognize where some of the Thames restaurants are now located).
You wouldn't want to see London today. It's like a once-great opera singer gone completely to seed.
l would like to add my praise to this film....and one can understand every word that is said.....annunciation and pronunciation.
You are absolutely correct! Ignore the "grammar police" (who couldn't find their arse with both hands)
@@Kidraver555 I see that you are one of those Pretentious wankers you speak of. Tosser.
@@Kidraver555 Yep! Snotty nosed, pretentious Git. Wake up to yourself.
@@Kidraver555 Snotty nosed, pretentious Git, Wake up to yourself.
Fritula meant to say enunciation and not annunciation. The slight difference between pronunciation and enunciation is that pronunciation is the act of making sounds or articulating words while enunciation is the way of articulating words clearly and distinctly according to the rules governing the language.
Very Good 60s Movie. Not the best era for movie making but this of one of the few rare exceptions. Thanks for uploading
Lovely to see Ronald Frazier, great actor with a face like a boxer.
@@tonysadler5290 He was Jock in Wild Geese.I remember The Misfit.He played a character called Basil Allenby Johnson and so was nicknamed Badger.Very good in the first and best version of The flight of the phoenix.
@@keithharvey7230 Agreed!
Another British film good cast
I really liked it. Love how many of these lesser known British 50s & 60s gems are here at RUclips (thanks heavens !).
A bit of everything and what all the other viewers said, too. A treat! Thank you!
The book from which the script was adapted is well worth a read.
Spot Jeremy Brett, an absolute stunner!!
"The Nose on My Face" is the American title of the Laurence Payne novel on which this script was based. It's well worth reading for the character development omitted in the film.
Thoroughly enjoyable and reassuring to learn that in this ever changing World at least Plod's MO hasn't changed.
These two should have made more movies together a good police duo
You got that right !
The sound engineering and recording in this movie is superb. Thanks for uploading.
Really quite enjoyable with the Chief Inspector and his domestic chores proving that the police too are human beings .
Well, some of them.
A good film
A policeman who likes Opera
@Rex T What a strange comment is this! It seems, you wanted to say something nice, but it backfired horribly and tells a lot about your mindset and your supporters. @joseph lemko went even farther when writing "the script is intelligent & shows that policemen actually can be human too." Can be", "CAN (sic) be human too".
Police ARE human beings, that have to do a horrible job, so we don’t have to. They deal with the seedy, dark happenings in this world! Very difficult job
Amazing to see Jeremy Brett here! What a handsome devil he was.😉
Sherlock Holmes??
Love his longish hair!
@@gordonpeden6234 That was to come.
This film and acting is superb! Love their lines, and everything. I'd like to see more films by this producer and style and actors. 😍❤ British movies were the best and still are the best to me, as I enjoy them so much here in America.
James Villiers speaks such an enigmatic British accent... his voice and presence adds quite an elegant dimension to the movie
He's marvellous many years later in Fortunes of War (available on YT).
ONLY IF PEACOCKS ARE YOUR THING
True blue-blood, check his family tree.
A fabulous Whodunnit, which rattles relentlessly along for 90 riveting minutes. Ian Hendry is mesmerisingly superb as Chief Inspector Birkett - there was always a stillness & vulnerability to his performances - with a great foil in his dry-humoured sidekick sergeant, Ronald Fraser. There are plenty of twists & turns - especially at the very end - some great scenes on The Thames (linking to Ian's real-life love of boats), and topnotch turns from a distinguished cast; including a young Jeremy Brett and an even younger Jane Asher.
Music plays an important part in the film; interwoven throughout, either as incidental or central to the action. There's a very poignant scene where Birkett soaks up his love of Madame Lavelle's operatic singing, only to discover she's a 'wrong 'un'. Rosalie Crutchley heightens the poignancy here, with her devoted sincerity to her 'fallen' employer. The lighting used on some of the interior shots is wonderful as well.
Overall, it's a top-rate production. But it's Ian Hendry who steals the show. A hugely talented, fabulously vesatile, actor, he draws you in with a commanding performance. His eyes alone are incredibly expressive. I think he was easily the best British actor of that era bar none.
My only gripe with Girl In The Headlines is some brief, yet jarringly disturbing, dialogue which strays into 'bad' girls deserve their comeuppance territory.
Appreciate thoughtful comments on film in general.
Opera lover here, as well. Yes, it was nice to see more than a cursory reference made.
🎵
thank you, nice to see films of my past.
Congrats to Flick Vault !! Outstanding job :) Thanks a lot.
I could NOT agree more !
Obviously well before understanding of contamination of a crime scene and forensic science!
Superb.......love Ronald Fraser.....in The Hill and The Wild Geese....Too Late The Hero....
A terrific movie. Thank you!
Brilliant film with great actors 👍
Brilliant. Thankyou. John (Australia)
Great little piece of English drama. I'd be jealous of the Policeman who can drive around in a Jaguar policecar if I didn't know what dreadful car engines and mechanics they had. An expensive car to buy and an expensive car to maintain because it was always breaking down.
A brilliant solid old detective film - 8 out of 10 👍👍😊
10/10 on casting, script, photography and direction. The killer was a total surprise, I can understand why they did it.
Great performances, the twists and turns were great and the chapters interesting. I liked the way the mystery unfolded. The drug smuggling shenanigans were elaborate, I wonder where they got that? Really enjoyable!
I too enjoyed it very much. So it was listed in my RUclips recommendations.
Good, good, good! Thanks FV
An enjoyable who dunnit with a kind of pre-Morse figure in Chief Inspector Birkett -- loves opera, drives a Jag, dogged pursuit, often on the wrong track. TFP.
Flick Vault keep putting up the flicks.😊
Good movie...I don't think I ever seen a bad actor from England.
You haven't watched Eastenders
I assume ??
Really enjoyed this movie great line up of character actors. Duncan McRae as the crusty captain of the "marchioness of Breadalbane" thanks uploader.
This movie is listed on the IMDB website under the title "The Model Murder Case".
Beautiful jazz going in. Beautiful opera later on. Light, let's have fun, music going out. Lots of nasty people in the mean time. Dog gets the best, and most deserving, break. NO ignorant commercial interruptions. Otherwise such a FANTASTIC CLASSIC that it would take all night to line out details. Cat says "Time to hit the rack." Thanks a million Flick Vault.
Wow, forensic precautions have changed since the Sixties!😲
Thanks for sharing. This is good film on all levels.
An unknown gem.
A very enjoyable watch, reminded me very much of Gideon's way.
Terrifically good fun, like a feature-length episode of Gideon's Way
Thank you. Great flix. Well done! Jermey Brett is smokin hot
I liked the domestic scenes in the policemen's homes and the 1960's fashions - along with the crime story and the locations.
Another classic. Thank you.
I thought Hendry was very dishy when he was younger. Such a shame he left us so young.
I met my first girlfriend in 1965 we fell deeply in love married in 1966 till she died in 2013 she used to tell me ian hendry was the man she liked when she was a girl
@@davidwolstenholme3672 She had great taste. I'm so sorry for your loss. Take care. ❤
@@carolineg1872 yes indeed she did caroline she was a convent school girl God gave her everything really pretty great figure and a wonderful heart yes she never had a good childhood and then in 1967 she greatly suffered thanks to a gestapo type maternity sister fox,patricia was in labour 3 days tearing when our son was been born and had 28 stitches that started off the rest of her life with ill health ,but innocent people suffer caroline
@@davidwolstenholme3672 I'm a former Convent girl myself. It toughens us up for life that's for sure. X
@@carolineg1872 that's good so obviously you to are highly intelligent, although the nuns were quite ruthless they were the best teachers at the school pat attended in the city of York ,pat told me that there was a pretty nun there was going with the male caretaker and she left and they got married
Bellissimo Mousier Flick Vault.........You don't make the film's on your channel but your quality is near perfection.
Classic police work , twists an turns, humour with a touch of rough stuff. Brilliant 👍
Message for Director. C. I Birkett's car being a light coloured Jag (white ?) with white wall tires is very odd for a plod car. Ostentatious even.
Really good movie capturing its moment in history so well. Thanks for uploading.
A good movie with substance, Thank You.
thank you for this! in tone, pace, and emphasis on plot and character rather than dramatic music and all that, it remiinds e of Jigsaw.... also available on YT I believe....
Wonderful. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, thank you.
I can understand why this was made during wartime. for cinemas. 😀the reasons are self evident. Thanks to all involved 👍
Wartime? Are you having a laugh? It was made in 1963 fgs.
Look again at the history books. Nary a war in sight.
Man.
A fine movie in every respect. Very good and unusual music.
Never a dull moment in this excellent who-dun-it. Great cast and scenes. Thanks. 😊
Jermy Brett is so handsome!
A very Good movie... Thank you.
