Hillary Brooke, also "The Woman in Green" in the Sherlock Holmes movie with Basil Rathbone I believe. Elegance, grace and beauty with a powerful screen presence, miss-cast as a reporter my opinion, beneath her stature. Great flick once it got rolling. Boy can you pick'em, thanks PF
Very nice review, I remember Ms Brooke as Lou Costello's girlfriend, from his comedy tv show! HB was one of the few who rarely showed any skin in costumes ...
@@nameskhar1510 Thanks Nk, that was a very nice compliment to Ms Brooke I'd say. Can't remember her on Costello's but she was riveting in the Holmes episode.
I first remember seeing Hillary Brooke on "My Little Margie" (1952-1955). I was 7 years old, I thought she was so beautiful. She was comfortable doing both drama and comedy. Born September 08, 1914, died May 25, 1999. Her career spanned from 1937 to 1960. Happy viewing from Las Vegas, NV April 25, 2019
Love Hillary Brooke. She played the Femme fatale excellently. She was a beautiful woman and a fine actress, I really love her movies. Thank you for uploading this and all the great films you share.
Then you've never watched Abbott & Costello, Jane Eyre (1943), The Enchanted Cottage (1945), Lucky Losers (1950) with The Bowery Boys, the Alfred Hitchcock thriller The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956), the 3-D film The Maze (1953), and the sci-fi B-movie classic Invaders from Mars (1953). See her wikipedia page for more.
Wow! She took her coworkers hard earned money, then wants to shut down gambling establishments. Her boss said it-- if someone wants to gamble, they'll find a place. Gambling is as bad as any drug.
Thought I had it mixed up. But that's what I got but worse she played them like doe and her boss wasn't to bright after he had the sense knocked out of him.
@ paul duchame The color posters caught the eye better to try to bring paying customers into theaters. The 8"x10" still photos displayed in frames were b&w.
First time I saw Philip Reed was in the science fiction movie UNKNOWN ISLAND (1948), also with Richard Denning, Virginia Grey, and Barton MacLane. Reed starred as a paleontologist trying to charter a voyage by way of steamship to the titular locality that’s inhabited by prehistoric dinosaurs; Richard Denning headed the small cast as a beachcomber who gets shanghaied courtesy of the ship’s brutish skipper. This cheap movie was a ripoff of KING KONG (1933), and can be seen on RUclips.
Bob Capps: thanks for the tip, i was already 3 minute into this stinker. 3 precious minutes of my life. Would probably pay every cent i own for three more minutes at the end of my life . Profound?
@Alphonso Zorro People with bad English are not a minority, methinks, but rather the vast majority. And this is true of the people of any other country and their command of their respective mother tongues. Or is your country the proverbial exception that proves the rule?
@@againstallodds3300 CORRECT translation of "Exceptio probat regulum" = Exception TESTS the rule. Exception PROBES the rule, is also correct. In modern English, ""proves" CANNOT be used in translation of this Latin word, as it give the wrong, FALSE, meaning to this phrase.
@george mira I beg to differ. In English it's The exception PROVES the rule, in German it is Ausnahmen BESTÄTIGEN die Regel, and in French it is L'exception PROUVE la règle. The exception does not, as suggested by you, test or probe the rule but does, in fact, prove it. Otherwise the sentence would make no sense. The homonym 'probare' can have different meanings, and, given the similar spelling of the three verbs, I would not be too surprised if the English verb "to prove" and the French verb "prouver" were of Latin origin anyway. Besides, it is "regulam" (accusative singular of Latin 'regula').

I love watching these old movies, rather than the crap on TV. Thank you !!!##
I don't think of T.V since 2017,BBC are a bunch of Nonce lovers,other channels are just as boring content to watch
Wholeheartedly agree!
I feel the same!
I do not see the point in a tv when the best material is on the Internet

Thanks for the info..very interesting
Memorable moments for certain.
Thank you pizzaflix. You’re the absolute best. I watch everything you post and eagerly await new vids😘
The cast featured Hilary Brooke and some other people. The Woman in Green was always worth watching.
Love Hillary Brooke. She played the Femme fatale excellently. She was a beautiful woman and a fine actress, I really love her movies. Thank you for uploading this and all the great films you share.
You said it. That is, you said it succinctly. I would have gone on and on and written a few paragraphs until someone stopped me.
Originally released in December 1947. Based on the popular CBS radio show (featuring Edward Pawley and Fran Carlon as "Steve" and "Lorelei").
This was quite good. Held the interest.
Thank you so much for these wonderful movies
A good 🎥 in a fine clear print,some of the best 👊'es are here,a 😎 thriller 👋
Well, Pizza you sliced out anther fine piece. Thanks
Hillary Brooke's what class and great actress! When the temperature hits triple digits I'm inside Pizza Flix binging! Thanks PF!
Thank you!
This is the first I've seen of Hillary Brooke in anything other than Sherlock Holmes flicks. Rather a nice hit.

Great movie thanks for posting
Thanks, Mr. P. Surprisingly good movie.
When movies were entertaining...
Funny how they always made color poster ad's for all these old B&W movies.
@ paul duchame The color posters caught the eye better to try to bring paying customers into theaters. The 8"x10" still photos displayed in frames were b&w.
Even the buildings were beautiful.
And women were way better looking, slim and graceful. Look at US sows now.
And women, more so.
True
Simply: THANK YOU!
* * * * *'s for everything + everybody.
Your comment went over my head....just don't get.
Lorelai:"Steve, she's still alive" - Steve: "oh, too bad" , yes, lol - best thing about this are the ladies hats, yowser!
nice flick.
thanx pf
I ❤ these old Movies and I get a kick out of the Jealousy of the Women.
Luv me some Hillary Brooke!
Those great B movies !
Pretty good B movie. Lots of familiar faces.
I love how the women in the Winners Club could wear crop tops, so long as the belly button was covered. 😁
Such witty banter, this would be a great radio program...oops! it was.
What year(s)? Same title?
very endearing how they call Hillary "Goldy-locks"
They put some hands on that neighbor !
Did I just see Ward Bond sitting in the driver's seat of the car with that other gentleman?
Not Ward Bond.
The guys head was sort of down so maybe it wasn't Ward Bond.
NICE PRINT
Who caught the reference to Sam Goldwyn?
My mother thought Hilary Brooks was so beautiful.
Call me when the wall get hot!!
Please upload Battleground from 1949 if possible
Battleground is on here but you have to pay,but what a great movie that is, it's definitely worth the money.
Dang; beat him up,; hmm. And let it seem like she was kidnapped after her car was stolen....

cool shtuff
This was a real stinker.
you're the big stink around here dummy
@@bobsaturday4273, do you think "Capps" even watched half of the movie?! He almost made a sentence, "a" isn't an actual word though.

Meh
I love movies that there no minorities.
You should be a "minority" yourself if your bad English is any indication.
What do you mean by that comment?
