Kinda surprised to not see Hugh Beaumont in more movies of that day. Of course you can't watch him without thinking of June, Wally and of course, the Beave. 😄
I love the idea of a group of writers back then in a room, sittin around talkin shit, smokin mad cigarettes, bouncin ideas off each other, pads & pencils, with a typewriter, devising these intricate crime plot lines. Awesome
Indeed a Great place for Music Lous Pier 23 in the 1990s 17 Bands a week. Funny part i was also a Guy from Boston as Hugh stated in the very beginning of movie . . . Thanks for sharing this movie .
Such an intellectual delight! To trace the witty one-liners through this series is quite lovely! not the least, but not the favorite: Lady: "He was with me all the time" Dennis O'Brien: "That's no alibi, that's just bad taste". Classic! There are better in Pier 13 and Danger Zone!
"O'Brien, you can throw away all your suits, from now on the pinstripes are going to run the other direction." Gale: "He was with me, all the time." O'Brien: "That's no alibi, that's just bad taste." "Only my age prevents me from envying you Dennis."
It's actually a movie version of a radio show called Johnny Madero. (Another movie of this series, Pier 23 is an actual Johnny Madero radio show title and had the same writers.) But Johnny Madero was a rework of Pat Novak.
"San Francisco's a conservative place..." Boy has that place changed! I just love these "Dennis O'Brien" noirs~ sure wish they'd made more than just three!
@Kathy H...Way too many corny lines and overacting especially the actor Brophy (who is usually stupid/funny but here was just awful pretending to be scholarly). The movie itself was two utterly unconnected segments and was certainly NOT a cute movie...and every other actor was packing a gun! Very disappointing movie. Two out of ten.
@@leelarson107 Jack Webb actually began his prolific career in radio, and was already familiar to audiences west, and nationally prior to creating the radio series, Dragnet (which began in ‘49), on which the TV show would be based. The format and style are very similar to this film, which I was referring to (though in jest, since I doubt the film is making royalties for anyone at this point ;-)
Great atmosphere great production love these old movies even when they are riddled with silly unlikely scenarios cuz no one's as dumb as this guy acts. I wanted to cry when it was over cuz I couldn't watch it again for the first time and it was too short
When I was in High School, 1957-1961, San Francisco ('San Fagcisco') was already considered bad news and was not a nice place to visit. But that hasn't stopped the street urchins and the perverts and the 'undocumented Democratic voters' from flooding in there. Most of California could sink beneath the waves and never be missed.
When I was in Junior High School in the mid-1950's, I was already aware that 'Frisco' was no longer a nice place to visit.............if it ever was to begin with.
Ward made scores of cool movies in the40s and 50s, mysteries, Val Lewton, Nazi movies, etc. Before he became the quintessential Dad. Always wished my father was like Ward Cleaver. And I bet June made the best tuna salad in all of American suburbia.
Obrigado pelas postagens, pelas legendas em português. Muitas séries interessantes e filmes. Curto as produções dos anos 50. Se puderem postem também ficção científica e comédia. Mais uma vez obrigado.
Hugh Beaumont was great and leave It to Beaver there's no reason to put him down there that was a funny show all of the actors in that did great he wasn't lame
You gotta remember this was made in 1951, n SF had been a conservative place till the Advent of The Beat Generation, when ch melded into the Hippies. Then all h e double toothpicks broke loose n annihilated that line out of existence!!! Gotta love Hugh Beaumont in movies as well as Ward Cleaver n the entire Cleaver Clean, which were the coolest of families when we grew up in the 1950's n 1960's!!!
This flick had all the makings of a great film noir - but didn't make it. First of all, Hugh Beaumont is NOT cut out to be a wise cracking smart ass. Then they cast Ed Brophy as a professor? He was in a hundred pictures playing a quintessential New Yorker with the accent and all the gestures. Hugh spends most of the picture getting knocked out, but when he's conscious, the dialogue sounds like the writers were trying to imitate Raymond Chandler or Dashiell Hammet. Instead it all sounded more like Daymon Runyon. Lot's of action, but it looked like they ran it all on a loop. The same routine - over and over. Too bad.
@@auletjohnast03638 No, you didn't...but your getting it and going to like it. Now, gimme the dough you owe me and get in the car. We're going to find that dame that double-crossed me. This time we're getting answers, not opinions. Step on it, but watch yourself. One false move and it's light's out!
Hugh is excellent in other noirs, and in Val Lewton,'s "Seventh Victim" where he has his inimitable way of speaking the word"youngster" problem here is the direction.
@@johnryan3913 I agree with you about his performance in "Seventh Victim", but that was a different character. All of Val Lewton's productions were low key and spooky, and Hugh tuned his performance to fit the mood. I just re-read my original comment, and I was probably a little too hard on him. Thanks for the reminder.
Une série B de William Berke, lançant une petite série d’aventures avec Hugh Beaumont dans le rôle du Privé Dennis O’Brien, accompagné par son acolyte verbeux et alcoolique Edward Brophy. Ce sont d’ailleurs deux histoires, sans liens entre elles, qui sont compilées là comme autant d’épisodes pouvant être également diffusés à la télé. Arnaque à la boxe, et puis au mariage, simple et sans soucis.
Announcer: It's been said that the test of a man's courage is how he performs in the face of danger. Well, in the next half hour, you're gonna meet a very unique breed of cat. The kind of man who doesn't know the meaning of the word fear. Rex Kramer, part-time airline mechanic, full-time daredevil. A man willing to risk his life for the sake of adventure. He has to chase it, confront it, and whip it. Rex Kramer, Danger Seeker! [Cut to a white man wearing an Evel Knievel jumpsuit and a crash helmet. He walks over to a group of large black men shooting dice in an alley and stands in the middle of them] Rex Kramer: [screams] beep [Kramer takes off running and the black men immediately give chase] 😅
Wow, that dialog! Ward Cleaver, you should be ashamed of yourself! That dialog was so snappy, my ears hurt. The Blonde was cute, but you'd end up paying ... in the end.
5:39 A stunningly beautiful girl in a car asks me " Can I give you a ride?" If it was me, I'd instinctively look back to see if she was talking to someone behind me.!!
Way too many corny lines and overacting especially the actor Brophy (who is usually stupid/funny but here was just awful pretending to be scholarly). The movie itself was two utterly unconnected segments...and every other actor was packing a gun! Very disappointing movie. The title should have been Corny City. Two out of ten.
Hey Wally, that wise cracking Eddie Haskel said our dad used to be a detective. Oh beaver, yeah but he wasn't good enough to be in the Maltese Falcon...someday I'm gonna smoke dad's pipe and make with the dames before I get married too.

"She left a trail of perfume that was two parts garden and one part chloroform." lol Love these one-liners.
Look forward to it Hugh Beaumont was great as a villain
But he WAS rough on the beaver.
I always hated that show, by the way, mainly because of Jerry Mathers.
The movies in this series are, at least the ones I've seen, are all easy to watch, and even quite entertaining. I like Hugh Beaumont in this role. 😊
Beaumont had a good voice for narration.
Kinda surprised to not see Hugh Beaumont in more movies of that day. Of course you can't watch him without thinking of June, Wally and of course, the Beave. 😄
"I love the Beav and Wally, too,
My pocket Fisherman and my Crazy Glue"

And a drink in his hand. He was known to have a drink or two under extreme social pressure.
The kind of tough banter you can only find in old films. Mr. Beaumont delivered those lines in amazing fashion. :)
Romance, crime and adventure guaranteed! Action not far behind!
Only June could get him to settle down.😀
@@ramongonzalez2112 she didn't like him being so rough on the Beave
Many thanks for this one. Love these 40's movies. Great insight to the times. Nice Beavers too!
Wow, did this all happen before he met June Cleaver? Yipe!
50's.
I stand corrected, still love both eras!
I love the idea of a group of writers back then in a room, sittin around talkin shit, smokin mad cigarettes, bouncin ideas off each other, pads & pencils, with a typewriter, devising these intricate crime plot lines. Awesome
"I'm gonna hire you, the rest is up to you."
"Sounds tough already!" That one hit my funny bone.
This movie has more one liners than a Chicago rail yard.
First line- "San Francisco is a conservative place". Hilarious.
That was hilarious!
Only if you're wearing flowers in your hair!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
No mo.🙃It was a classy tough town once, during the Dashiell Hammett years.👊
In 1951 I - was too young to appreciate a difference; IT IS WHAT HAPPENED IN THE NEXT few YEARS THAT MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE.
'LEAVE IT TO BEAVER' WITH HUGH BEAUMONT, BARBARA BILLINGSLEY, TONY DOW AND JERRY MATHERS AS THE BEAVER.
Pier 23: now a nice indoor/outdoor place to eat, drink and hear live music
Indeed a Great place for Music Lous Pier 23 in the 1990s 17 Bands a week. Funny part i was also a Guy from Boston as Hugh stated in the very beginning of movie . . . Thanks for sharing this movie .
You wouldn't disappoint me would you? That depends, on what? What your used to ! CLASSIC!
Old SF, Noir, hot babes, and Hugh Beaumont. Can’t miss. He was good here.😎👏

rework of an old Jack Webb radio series Pat Novak for hire. It was great this movie is too.
It's actually a movie version of a radio show called Johnny Madero. (Another movie of this series, Pier 23 is an actual Johnny Madero radio show title and had the same writers.) But Johnny Madero was a rework of Pat Novak.
Great fun! Do you have Pier 23 (1951) in the same series? Ann Savage (of Detour fame) is in that one.
Hugh Beaumont made a great private eye.
Hello you all in CCC universe hope to see you all tonight😊👍.
Fun flick but it's overstuffed with wisecracks.
"San Francisco's a conservative place..." Boy has that place changed!
I just love these "Dennis O'Brien" noirs~ sure wish they'd made more than just three!
⭐⭐Baylor School salutes Hugh Beaumont, Class of 1930⭐⭐
"You've got more inside dope than an xray." Hahahahaha!
The one liners comes faster than a comic with joke machine gun.
Can't help thinking that this was the inspiration for some of the dialogue in Quentin Tarantino's Sin City
I heard so many expressions in this movie. Here is a funny one: "You have as much chance for survival as a hot dog in a ball game." 3,550 views so far
17:09 "There were a bunch of calendar girls who must have posed without asking mother."
Looking forward to this!!☺🥰👍
There are so many corny lines and lots of overacting, but it’s a cute movie
Thank you🌷
so true, underacting also
EXACTLY!

@@tpe54 Ward Cleaver acted like he didn't want to kiss any of the dames.
Absolutely ,but I'd say under acting ,big problem with the recent flicks ,Actors sound they are just reading ,but at least the old flicks had content.
You know what ? I will watch again, just to enjoy the comedic lines & count the times Hugh was smacked & knocked out !
Hello all. Hey what is the music we listen to while waiting? It's so euphoric.
I hope they gave Jack Webb a cut of the royalties for lifting his material!
exactly
This was made in 1951, before Jack Webb and 'Dragnet'.
@@leelarson107 Jack Webb actually began his prolific career in radio, and was already familiar to audiences west, and nationally prior to creating the radio series, Dragnet (which began in ‘49), on which the TV show would be based.

I stuck it out to 50:00
when he walked into another trap. Harumph.
I knew that voice when listening to the intro voiceover. It was Ward Cleaver the Dad in Leave It To Beaver.
I don't think this is the same San Francisco he's talking about in the opening...
I broke out laughing when I heard that🤣🤣
When I was in High School, 1957-1961, San Francisco ('San Fagcisco') was already considered bad news and was not a nice place to visit.
But that hasn't stopped the street urchins and the perverts and the 'undocumented Democratic voters' from flooding in there.

With all of the "hep" talk in this movie, it's no surprise that Mrs. Cleaver speaks jive.
Ward made scores of cool movies in the40s and 50s, mysteries, Val Lewton, Nazi movies, etc. Before he became the quintessential Dad. Always wished my father was like Ward Cleaver. And I bet June made the best tuna salad in all of American suburbia.
He was in a western with James Stewart

Hahahaha...This movie was made for RADIO...hahahha. I can see listeners huddled around the radio biting their finger nails. hahahaha
If you learned anything from this movie then you learn that Ward Cleaver is no one to be fucked with.
ممنون تشکر عالی ، 💙💙💙💙💙
Hugh Beaumont was great and leave It to Beaver there's no reason to put him down there that was a funny show all of the actors in that did great he wasn't lame
If only the Beaver had the internet! The dirt he would dig up on his quick with the advice Dad..
boy this needs the Zucker Bros. and fast (Police Squad, Naked Gun etc.)
🤣 "And stop calling me Shirley!"
Jocko madngan, inspector Hellman. . Pier 23 was pat Novak fer hires😺
It was more comedic than anything else
Poor Hugh was given a Horrible script He survived it !
A cornucopia of similes, corny, but illustrious metaphors, and snappy one-liners. 🎦
All right, then. I shall keep myself busy with work for two days..
Correct !!
Beaumont is okay, the dialog is great, but the director didn't get much out of the supporting cast.
So this is what Ward Cleaver did before he met June....
He joined James Stewart out west, first.
They didn't like each other, thanks to that WWII hero.
This is tonights bedtime movie sorted. 😁
Is it just me or is this dialog super fast?
Ward, weren't you a little hard on the Beaver last night?
“You have as much chance of survival as a hot dog at a ball game.”
hello brothers and sisters.
"You wouldn't know love from a heartburn?" Well.....they are similar.
Brophy changed his accent. Nice.
As a rule, I love corny old crime films - but this one was unwatchably bad. I stuck it out nevertheless. The worst I've ever endured.
You gotta remember this was made in 1951, n SF had been a conservative place till the Advent of The Beat Generation, when ch melded into the Hippies.

Shades of Pat Novak for hire .
The plot reminded me of Pulp Ficton.
Reminded me of a combination of the two Jack Webb radio shows one where he was a boat renter and the other a detective,

Ward don’t be so hard on the Beaver
Saw this movie when I was 9 or 10 years old
He says “San Francisco is a “conservative” place” - 70 years ago maybe.
This was 1951 It was a conservative city
Deserves an award for the most trite, corny wannabe wiseguy wisecracks in a script EVAH!!!
Everybody loves Daddy Ward !
I can't decide whether Hugh Beaumont is this Bad or if it's just the script .
The script Bro , Hugh had some nice acting in other movies !
"San Francisco is a conservative place..."
Ward Cleaver trying to impersonate Eddie Haskell!
Wait..isn’t this also titled “Pier 23”?
11:20 I bet not even all the fireworks in the world can light up my world like you do.

San Fransicko is a conservative place. 55 years of Lyndon Johnson politics and look what it is now.
Yeah, a sh*****e!!!
