Wholeheartedly agree. Grew up on these films and I first saw The Raid in 1955 at the local cinema in the Saturday afternoon matinee. Before the Raid film, Van Heflin appeared with Alan Ladd in Shane, one of the greatest western of all time.
@@paulm3033 Not suggesting any cutoff date but we don't have many high quality actors now compared to the 1940-60 period. Movies used to be entertaining and now they have an agenda.
@rogerhuber3133 I had to read all if the endings though but it was really great I thought. The silence. Them talking to each other like they can understand one another the whole time. Him stealing the water and fish.
Van Heflen and Richard Boone were actors you either loved or didn't. Peter Graves, Lee Marvin, James Best, Will Wright, Claude Adkins plenty of great actors later in their own time after this movie. I give it 9 stars because of the talent. Peter Graves and James Arness from Gunsmoke are brothers.
Peter Graves was in the TV show MISSION IMPOSSIBLE….played the role that Tom Cruise has in the movie…leader/one who gets the recording of the current mission
Anne Bancroft looked very fine. I didn't know until I saw this movie the first time that her career started so early. Her husband, Mel Brooks, is one lucky guy!

I think this has been a great day. This is my second Western American Civil War movie and I've just watch but I've never seen before and both movies most excellent though. I think the other one was on a different channel but well done and thank you
I just watch these movie, and exactly ,the same date falls on 19 -monday, 2024, but different month, october 19 ,1954, different year, .very good story.
My GGF Michael Carroll Hennessy rode with Bennett Young during Morgan's Ohio raid(June/July 1863). GGF captured, (as was Young) held in Camp Douglas: Young escaped to Canada ; captured St. Albans. Young, much younger than character depicted by Heflin....later escaped to British Area ; educated there returnd to long prominent life in Kentucky...
The only memento that Bennett Young kept was a one dollar Franklin County Bank note . On display in the Blue Grass Museum in Winchester Kentucky . It was folded to the size of a postage stamp and carried in his wallet until his death .
A real piece of American and Canadian history - little knwn but true. Both countries have a long history of military entanglements and conflicts. This is a Hollywood film and not a documentary so take it for what it is.
I wonder if the beautiful buildings usedi n this movie are still standing or have they been destroyed after the filming¿ Its too bad it isnt a real town today.
My comment is not on the artistic facet of the movie, but a reflection on its story: civil war is always brutal on civilians no matter where it takes place. If war is savagery, civil war is the zenith of that savagery.
@@johnraina4828 MY ancestors were Confederate Cavalrymen. My G-Grandfather was only 13 when he fought at Chickamauga. One of his brothers died of Typhoid he contracted in the Yankee prison camp at Point Lookout, Maryland.
They had ALOT of Confederate propaganda movies back then, not they we don't now they're just called 'Right wing" or something but same feelings and ideas.
The old boys of the Confederacy had one great idea. Don't trust the federal government. But by your comment, One can see you are one of the sheeple who gets stars in their eyes when you hear the words of those in power NOW. You are maybe what? Late teens, early twenties?

In Rosser's Cavalry Division, Army of Northern Virginia. Before transferring to the cavalry in late 1862, they fought up and down the Shenandoah with the great Stonewall Jackson. One of them died of typhoid he contracted while a prisoner at Point Lookout. Traitors? No. Just independent men who didn't like to be told how to live.

70 years old movie
Majestic made those actors the best of the industry
Very young in that Time
Thanks for downloading this jewel
Good flick. Love finding these old movies with our favorite old stars.
What a shame they don't make great movies like this any more.
They do , it makes no sense to suggest that after a certain date there haven't been any good ones

An excellent film and well acted. Worth your time to watch it.
So many years since I’ve watched this movie! It is worth a watch!
"A lot of weapons from Britain!" ( The Onedin Line had an episode "gunrunning " and with boots etc from Liverpool.)
The main Confederate rifled musket , by far , was the British Enfield .
Claude Akins. What a acting career he had. Outstanding.
Van Heflin was a big star in the 1940s and 50s. '3:10 to Yuma', 'Shane'. He won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in 1942' 'Johnny Eager.'

For a 1954 film movies this is well produce and made. The story is also astonishing!
Sad but true shows how many people are hurt in war on both sides
A real piece of American and Canadian history - little knwn but true. Both countries have a long history of military entanglements and conflicts. This is a Hollywood film and not a documentary so take it for what it is.
Great movie 🤩🤩🤩💖💖
This was a great movie. Star 🌟 Packed 🎉

Excellent movie 🎬
Excellent movie!!! 👏👏👏
Great film 🎥 🎞
I wonder if the beautiful buildings usedi n this movie are still standing or have they been destroyed after the filming¿ Its too bad it isnt a real town today.
Yes they're gone, it was filmed on the same set as Andy Griffith Show, look close and you can recognize some of the buildings.
My comment is not on the artistic facet of the movie, but a reflection on its story: civil war is always brutal on civilians no matter where it takes place. If war is savagery, civil war is the zenith of that savagery.
It would be a lot more historically correct if 1954 wasn't emblazoned at the bottom of the first scene of the film.
37.27 An ear trumpet-for the hard of hearing, (rarely seen in films).
Used in Mel Gibson's, The Patriot.
What a great movie.
Heflin was in Shane with Ladd.

This film was directed by an Argentine director who made several films in USA.
The Epitome of Officers and Gentlemen
You cannot mean Confederates.
Wow that was a good movie
Some really good actors in this!!
In the beginning it states "1954 @ 1:48"? Is that to let us again know when the movie was produced? Thank you.
...the producers have sacked the person in charge of titles....lol
@@Feathermason Very good movie with a lot of up and coming actors. Sorry for the loss of employment. ;-)
Future stars Richard Boone, Peter Graves and Lee Marvin are in this movie.
It took an hour and 7 minutes but we finally got some action!
Heroic Richard Boone appreciated by the women.
His character needed an opportunity to redeem himself, after what he told Katy.

That was a good movie
Small town Vermont alight, Georgia alight. 1814 Washington DC alight, "White House" blackened.
Very good
Were did they get the map and money to buy those grand clothes of his 🤔🙄😒
I think the Major took the map from the office, when they first escaped. Story doesn't go deep enough to tell about where they got the clothes.
The Major took the map from the fort they escaped from. For the clothes, use your imagination.
Peter Graves played a different part in the stalag 17.
well, it would certainly be silly if he tried to play the same part.
Most civil war movies portray the North as winning most battles so I guess it was good to see the South win one for once😂
Wow, it only took six minutes for the first commercial
Are you angry?
@@johnraina4828 what would make you think that? 😂

Thing is the Canadians and the British were pissed at Confederates for using them no more raids were launched from Canada
Us vans have to stick together 👍
Gosh who isn't in it? Lee Marvin, Peter Graves; you could say, all the usual suspects!
