I love this channel so much as there is absolutely nothing worth watching on TV these days. A HUGE thankyou to its owner for all the fabulous movie uploads.📽️👌❤️
_TOTALLY AGREE tv is awfully bad, every night it's a search for something ok_ 👍🏻
@@whi5tler_1337 turn it off then
Lorraine,I totally agree with you.I don't even bother with TV now,Channels like this make up all my viewing.
@adamsmith307 ummmm, I do, hence me coming to this channel! 🙄😄
Amazing HD quality!!! Very moving film, with the sombre atmosphere almost ruined by the frequent ad breaks. McGoohan clearly showing his unique star qualities which made THE PRISONER one of TVs greatest ever triumphs still revered by thousands of fans.
I am SERIOUSLY considering abandoning RUclips for the very same reason! I will then return to my considerable library of DVDs. The advertising here is just becoming STUPID! When they start to appear, I don't even watch them, by immediately turning away, and hitting the mute button! So in essence, for me, these advertisers are just waiting their time and money!
In Ireland, the word 'quare' has also come to be used in a context that means 'remarkable' (e.g. 'That's a quare day' or 'she's a quare singer'). The film was shot in Kilmainham Gaol, Dublin. Some amazing films made here - 'The Face of Fu Manchu' & The Italian Job - it became infamous for the executions of the leaders of the Irish uprising in Easter 1916. Janice & I visited Kilmainham some few years ago & paid our respects - thanks to our Dublin friends. Of course Patrick McGoohan worked his way to the top as Governor in the film Alcatraz. This film goes right to your bones & full of compassion. For those who like Irish literature the prison officer Regan was played by Walter Macken who almost steals the film. Sylvia Sims is wonderful - I have some books signed by her - I fell in love with her in Ice Cold in Alex - thank you Janice. Some great films on Flick Vault.
WTF? Did you just take pieces of others posts and glue them together, Frankenstein-like to pretend you had written them?
@@RUclipsallowedmynametobestolen I get my information from all over the shop as most people do - I hope you find this useful.

Quare had different meanings in other parts of Eire, remarkable, unusual,odd, strange..
@AMT Calling out plagiarism does not make one a rude arrogant wanker.
HOW one calls it out might.
Rude? I suppose a bit, yes. But that's not as bad as being a thief.
Arrogant? Arrogance is "an exaggerated sense of one's own importance or abilites." I don't think I said anything about my importance or ability. I only pointed out the O.P.'s offense.
A wanker? Wankerism is in the eye of the beholder. Which really just means that the word is so vague as to have no clearly definable meaning. It speaks much more of the person who perceives someone as a wanker than it does of the person accused of being a wanker. If you consider me a wanker, I'm comfortable with that.
A powerful drama. This was Brendan Behan's first play, published in 1954 and still considered to be one of his best works. The prison scenes were filmed in Kilmainham prison, in Dublin, which was decommissioned almost a 100 years ago. Now a preserved monument, it became infamous for the executions of the leaders of the Irish uprising in 1916. A good upload except for the sound that could be better.
Kilmainham Jail was also used for the filming of the Fu Manchu films!
It was also used for In the name of the father (1993)
A great book to read, speeches from the Dock.
A POWERFULL MOVIE REGARDING A VERY CONTRIVERSIAL TOPIC.I FOUND IT A MOVIE FULL OF COMPASSION.THANK YOU.ONE FILM I WILL NOT FORGET
Yes. it did a fine job balancing the two sides.
Interesting storyline with a good script and topnotch acting .
I love the on location outdoors film scenes showing the streets , shops and vehicles of the time . 👌
I was in Kilmainham in 91, but seen the film in the 60s.Super drama and so real.
Funny how the board had exhibitd with no 16 years old, now if you are 16, you are of age.
Quare world, no punt intended.🇪🇸🇨🇮🇦🇺
Mcgoohan always an edgy actor and Syms a lovely looking lady and a fine actress.
Thank you so much for the upload. Brilliant acting, brilliant writer, Brendon Behan.
Love it ...God bless you Brendan Behan
And the ole triangle went jingle jangle all along the bank's of the royal canal. Long live Dublin and long live Ireland.
Thank you for putting up this wonderful gem. Walter Macken who plays Regan is my favourite novelist.
Brendan Behan genius
at his finest &
Patrick McGoohan does this play justice ~
Loved all the lags acting skills ~
🎼🎵🎶 And the old triangle
goes jingle jangle...🎶🎵
As others have complained, the sound volume is too low for those aged 70 and above, if watched on a tiny "smart phone". However, if you're a young'un with fine quality ears, or in possession of a jolly good amplifier, then *GOOD LUCK TO YOU BOYO* 😀
McGoohan always great to watch.
Excellent Movie!! But then again what isn't excellent with Patrick Mcgoohan in it?
The Quare Fellow is a Dublin expression that was used to refer to someone slightly odd, for example if there was someone in a workplace who kept to themselves more than most, or else was louder than most, something distinctive, then people might use a phrase such as 'Is the quare fella in yet?', similar to 'is head-the-ball in yet?' although the latter would suggest more of an oddball.
Written by the Irish poet Brendan Behan who drank himself to death shirtly after this film was made. Behan had been put into the English juvenile prison system, a "Borstal", for active service IRA activities in the late 1940's/rmearly 1950's. He wrote the play "The Borstal Boy" about it. So he did have some experience with the criminal justice system, though he was a political prisoner, other than being booked into the drunk tank.
"Quare fella" in Irish did not refer to sexual orientation at all when this play was written. It just means someone with odd or unusual behavior, or an eccentric, or someone you don't quite understand. I have this on direct authority from a very close friend of Behan. We met when he gave a very small (perhaps a dozen people) performance of his one act monologue play on Behan, he played Behan, in the late 1970's at the student recreation center at UCLA. He was a double of Behan, who I was familiar with from seeing videotapes of him reading his work and being interviewed on TV. My Irish grandparents had several of his works. We talked at length over a beer after the performance (can't remember how I got the beer since I was still well under 21). He showed me lots of pictures from an album he kept of himself and Behan hanging around together in Dublin. We talked since I was the only person there actually familiar with Ireland and Behan. At that point the male homosexual community was just beginning to appropriate the term "gay" from its standard American usage of "happy". He had to clear up the confusion for a liberal LA audience. They also didn't quite understand him when he also told them to "feck off". Irish often requires a translation, even though it seens like English. Sometimes it's actually Gaelic sentences with English words inserted as rough approximations. Behan loved doing this.
I doubt that most non-Irish or non-traditional Irish Americans will completely understand the play/movie without some translation or background.
This is very strange. I just noted that the writer is supposedly so.e Jewish guy and the film is by a Jewish director, though filmed in Ireland with largely Irish actors. Yet I know this is a Brendan Behan work. How did it get misappropriated, or am I losing my mind? Given the events of the last week, 01/06/21, perhaps I have an excuse.
Thank you
I’m Irish and I never even thought about the gays when I hear the quare fella. Your description is spot on.
Pretty well known what The Quare Fella means if you have any Irish in you.
I believe I read an explanation from Behan somewhere that "the quare fellow" was the standard slang term for someone sentenced to death.
This will stay with me too. Thank you for the upload.
It is wonderful to hear our language Go raibh maith agat
This movie goes right to your bones
SUPER MERCI POUR CETTE PÉPITE !.. TOUTE LA DISTRIBUTION EST ÉPATANTE !.. MARRANT LE PLAN OU L'ON VOIT PATRICK MCGOOHAN DERRIÈRE DES BARREAUX ÇA FAIT PENSER À UN CERTAIN FEUILLETON !.. BONUS PLUS À LA LE LES SCÉNARISTES ET AU RÉALISATEUR !..
Thank you,great film.
Paul Whitehouse: "that fellow ..is he quare?

It means a little gone in the head, nothing more.

Can’t beat these old flicks…Imagine then, if these were done new…
Ealing studios could. If only.
For those who like Irish literature the prison officer Reagan was played by Walter Macken
Wow - the guy that wrote The Scorching Wind?
@@JohninRosc yes it was a trilogy also seek the fair land and the silent people .
Wow. That's worth knowing. A great writer...
Thanks, spotted him but wasn't sure. Read a lot of him.
Worked himself up from rookie to the last warden of alcatraz.
16-02 " We never hang a man unless he is in the best of health." Warden.
Thanks for the superior quality upload.
Its good to have you tube to see all these films
Love these types of films fantastic,thank you.
Now this was a bloody quare flick matie....but I enjoyed it !!!
I love these old black and white British films.
volume needs to be more, it's low even with laptop and video all the way up. VERY interesting film, however.
Patrick mcgoohan was the top pick to play James Bond in Dr No but turned it down.
Great film as usual. Sorry to put myself among the porn bot comments. Happy new year all.
Excellent. Thank you
Wow, wonderful, many thanks
Very good, great performances and direction.
The pub at the opening O'Dwyer Bros is I imagine at the East end of ALexandra Road.by North Wall?
..the character names Mulligan and Regan, and even the Quare Fellow (The Encounter) is this a tilt of the hat to James Joyce?
Features high moral values just as McGoogan did in his personal life , prisoner warder why did his work feature prison so much ?
Carrying on ' with a condemned mans wife would of been interesting character for him , unlikely he would got away with it or kept his job in real life . McGoogan brilliant as usual , excellent film.
What great film, strong subject as well
Wow, Patrick McGoohan.
EXCELLENT🌟movie 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Music🌟 score OUTSTANDING🌟 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Top film thanks!
Why didn't #6 ever mention his job as a waurder ?
What a surprise! Good acting, good script, excellent black and white visual effect. Another "Dead Man Walking" film. Walter Macken almost steals the movie. Was the setting of this film The Republic of Ireland or Northern Ireland? Did you notice the blooper when the clerk at the ballroom squeezed one of her bosoms? Censors missed!
Bob Jones The film was shot in Kilmainham Prison in Dublin.
@@lochlainnmacneill2870 Did the Republic of Ireland have the death penalty?
The River Liffey, the Customs House and O'Connell Street are an obvious give-away to Dublin, even to a devout Englishman!! But the references to the Governor and Mr Regan being imprisoned and gaining kudos during 'the Troubles' (early Twenties) are more subtle but still make the point!
Incidentally, the Kilmainham jail was used in the Hammer Movies 'The Face of Fu Manchu' (1965) where Fu Manchu is apparently executed in the exercise yard in the opening scene.
@@BobJones-dq9mx Yes, and they always had to bring Albert Pierrepoint over to do the hanging.
I assumed the grope was why he got a slap - but yes, censors weren't keen on that type of thing. Maybe it was essential to the plot!
Sylvia sims is 87 now she has been in 80 films and tv shows
Shes just had her jab, I heard from a friend shes doing fine I hear.
I thought her received pronunciation wrong for this character. Upper middle class.
Those"suspended sentences"can be a killer.😩😩😩
A woman walking into a pub on her own ? The hussey !
And to see the other woman inside with all the auld lads. Bleedin’ disgrace. They should have been in the snug.
😂
There were 'snugs'for women.
a film that i had to see to the end.
I'd never heard of the film before but what a cracker it is. Some excellent acting and a script that makes you think more about capital punishment. The final scenes are very powerful indeed. Thanks for putting it up on this platform.
Yes , most definitely a quare...
That was a really engaging film but now I think I'll go to a Hallmark Romance to cheer me up.
38:48 Tom Riordan was an ex-con ! Always felt he was a wrong one.
A truly harrowing film depicting the non sensical nature of capital punishment.
Unless its your family eh ?
@@keithrose6931 Yeah I bet the families of the Guilford 4, Birmingham 6, Carl Bridgewater 3 etc are glad the death penalty doesn't exist. All the time police fit people up, manufacture evidence, destroy evidence, beat confessions out of people etc the death penalty is a travesty.
@@JohninRosc true too many flawed cases go to the chair in the States, but people like the Ripper, HIndley, Brady..of course they could all come and live with you when theyre released. Not in my back yard thanks.
@@SniffMyDeadwax you’ve given three examples of people that have all died in jail - not in your backyard. They died where they should have died. I wouldn’t have had too much difficulty if all three were executed as all three admitted their guilt totally. Consider however the case of Jeremy Bamber. He’s been in jail for 35 years - there is a strong chance he will be released very soon and the Essex police shamed for their disgraceful conduct throughout the last 35 years. He would have been hung if there was a death penalty in 1986.
@@JohninRosc No smoke without fire. Just clever lawyers earning big bucks letting killers go free!
This was at twickinham studios I worked in twickinham in the 60s
To be honest it looks very like Dublin. I can’t see which bits are filmed in Twickenham. I’d be interested to know.
@@freespeechisneverwrong9351 Not filmed in Twickenham,final processing.
Thank you
why? that was Ireland back then still ruled by the RC church
Wow, very powerful .
That was just stunning excellent
brilliant :)
volume too low. Can barely hear it.
And the auld triangle went jingle jangle - All along the banks of the Royal Canal .............!!!
Cant hear it
It’s amazing people write books then they go in to films
I think it was a stage play.
Brendan Behan wrote this play
Brendan Behan and Dylan Thomas spent the fifties competing with each other to see who could get the drunkest whilst still being able to recite their own poetry. Behan won as Thomas dropped dead on the job and if memory serves actually in a pub.
A great inspiration to the likes of Richard Burton, Peter O’ Toole and Richard Harris they also heralded in a new age of laissez-faire at the BBC, where anyone who had worked with either of them became an instant folk- hero and legend.
Burton, O'toole & Harris are nowhere near Mcgoohan.
Dylan Thomas died in a New York hospital of pneumonia, not in a pub. He and Behan were never 'competitors'. Behan was once asked if he saw a comparison and said they only thing they had in common was getting drunk and disgracing themselves in public.
So, no.
@@johnlawrence2757 Thomas died of bronchitis in St Vincent's Hospital, NYC (this is all in his Wiki entry if you'd bothered to read it instead of drinking meths and typing shit).
The Behan quote is available in Michael O Sullivan's autobiography of Behan - again, if you'd bothered to actually read anything. PS: RUclips isn't a doctoral thesis; it doesn't require "sources".
Now go away.
@@johnlawrence2757 😂. Bye troll.
How can someone as unintelligent as you, who doesn’t even know the meaning of simple words have the impertinence to argue with me? Clearly it’s the obsession of a jealous inadequate person and I’d be grateful if in future you could take your content-less focus elsewhere
Cracking film with a good cast including Patrick McGoohan, Sylvia Syms, Aubrey Morris, T.P. McKenna, and John Welsh. Walter Macken (Regan) was also a successful author of fiction and plays.
LOL the two drunk broads at 112:38
I was 14 when this film came out
I was 12.
What happened to the sound?
The prison governor was right, having a reason to kill doesn’t make it any less murder. If that was a reason for reprieve, why not just overturn the verdict altogether and let him out?
It would have made it a crime of passion, which carries a lesser sentence in view of the aggravating circumstances, but still a hefty sentence.
to kill again in 50% of cases.
@AMT UK stats I'm afraid.
The main point is not showing the man’s face all over the movie!! This is that on is absolutely nothing and one’s life is absolutely worthless.
I can't hear the sound track......
Sleeping with husband's bro.... harping the tune for Husband 😶
The MADNESS!
Poor sound, very low.
Volume😐
One of my favourite actors Patrick McGoohan. As for the play, I think he packs a bit too much into it. A suicide, a possible love affair but otherwise it's really a great drama.
who is number one ?
38:45 mins 'Tom Riordan' !
The Irish Free State/Republic always used English Hangmen after independence [?] and the Irish pound [punt] was guaranteed by the Bank of England.
The adds are always nice and loud for us ,shame about the movie
These are the films I spend time searching for. New films have lost a sense of meaning . Everything and everyone has become so fake. Although the stories and people are all around. Story line and credibility have been sacrificed for unattainable imagery what can only be obtained via computer graphic manipulation.
Love to see films of Macnaly and Ceril Cusack, also anything of James Joice, like the Dubliners.

Would have been much better in colour !! The greeness of Ireland has to be seen to be believed !!
I will travel back in time and put an official complaint in for you immediately. 🇬🇧👍
Yeah, the green cell walls, come up so beautiful in colour.

@@Sam_Green____4114 : I might have to go back and have another look Sam.
@@Vinnie101a Well look at the beginning again mate ! It's lush Green Irish countryside ! Except it isn't cos the film is in B & W !
This film was based on a book
a play was made before the film was.
A play
at the start it blatant the box/baggage the character carries is empty... which makes the whole scene a fake. That's a director's oversight
Starring Nikola Tesla
I think the 'quare fella' mean the devil...
I'm 73 Could never understand why Richard Burton was so revered. He was a crap actor. Mcgoohan was the best in everything he did 1,000 x better than anyone else. Danger Man, was my favourite memory as a youngster.
Burton's voice had something to do with his popularity.
Yeah, I agree. Burton was very overrated, but he did have that incredible voice. Watch him in the film 1984 to hear him at his best (he also died in 1984).
McGoohan never saw a piece of scenery he didn’t chew. He was bleeding awful! Eye rolling crap he laughingly called “acting”
Also known as Red from the film hell drivers
Burton was a fine actor,but tended to make rubbish films for a quick paycheque.Check him out in Villain1971,where he plays a gangster,decent film.
Rather depressing subject about prisons no danger man this time!
He turned down the bond role due to its sexual content!
Abbey Theatre Players..
And Mountjoy Prison on the Royal Canal.is filmed later.
And the wonderful Dermot Kelly,who is the very pro hanging Warden,-who was a sidekick to comedian Arthur Haynes in the sixties.
Is he a quare, Bunny? 🤔
Dreadfully dour movie.
The photography was excellent, however.
Obviously biased against capital punishment.
Nothing wrong with the sound.. Maybe you are just afraid to be POLITICALY CORRERCT and admit you just cannot understand the accent..
SOUND IS QUITE LOW IN ITS VOLUME
@@tinadownes3413 You need to turn your sound volume up then. It was fine on this computer and another both when I checked it there. Have you tried maybe getting better speakers or running updates on your sound card?
@@retiredoldsarge5938 I have good speakers.
I went tto another vid and opened it and my speakers nearly jumped 6 feet in the air as the loudness was overwhelming.
I could hear it fine with my headphones on and the volume near max. On my desktop, with the video volume and my computer volume both on max, it was a strain to hear.
Just click on sub-titles.
Too bad sound not great
What are the papers being tossed into the grave, which the grave diggers fight over, at 1:26:25?
Personal letters written to him in prison, I'd imagine.
@@marieannwalsh662 That could be. But then why fight over them? If they just want to read them, they could take turns.
I get the feeling there is some monetary value attached to them. But what good is money to them in prison?
In any case, I have no better guesses, so thank you, Marieann!
@@RUclipsallowedmynametobestolen They wanted to sell them to the Sunday papers - always avid of sensation !!
@@michaelfox860 Ah, that makes sense! Thanks, Michael.
Just be because the state condoned murder it doesn't make it any less traumatic for those that have to be part of it. That was the basis of the play.
A poem by Brendan Behan called lonliness sums up his time in gaol:
The taste of blackberries
After the rain
On top of the hill
In the silence of a prison
The trains cold whistle
The excited whispering of
Lovers
To the lonely.
@AMT I'm just beginning to re-read and listen to Irish authors and playwrights from Jonathan Swift through to C S Lewis. Also there are some wonderful Irish story tellers here on RUclips.
The French describe the Irish as the most civilised nation on earth and I'm inclined to agree.
@AMT I'm really not sure what it is, some would say it's a curse. I believe that the thought process of a genius is having a constant intruder at every waking hour refusing to be silent, perhaps that's enough reason to encourage copious amounts of alcohol to silence the beast/angel within.
@AMT I agree. RUclips offers some great content so I've just become a premium user. The content is enormous and so varied. The only downside is the censorship that occurs. However its a great platform overall.
Am I correct in assuming you are Welsh?
@AMT I also have a problem with my eyes, brought about I think by too much Internet viewing. There is a solution I think? I download content from kindle and there is a choice of print size.
@AMT "Just an Aussie"? Time was when an Aussie was held in very high esteem throughout the world. I know you're all going through a bad time there down under but time was when you were top of the list in places to live. I watched enthralled by a film called, "They're a Weird Mob" by Nino Culotta who actually was an Irish man called, John O'Grady. It made me want to become a £10 pom but I never made it. I read, "In the Wet" by Neville Shute a wonderful novel, then there was, "On the Beach"
I have some nice stories of Aussie's I've met through the years.
Surely hanging by the state is revenge by another name, it's certainly not justice and surely never a deterrent,mercy to the insane amongst us.
No life should be life ! The relatives have a life sentence and so should the offender.
Hanging a murderer is the right thing to do.
