Loretta Young was so beautiful and such a great actress she was a pleasure to watch in movies. Barry Sullivan was an actor who could make you hate him and that's what he did in this movie. The story is riveting, the acting is stellar and the movie is the kind of movie you can watch again and again. Thank you for posting this great movie for us!!
I just watched this for the first time and Loretta Young's performance is unbelievable! I can't imagine how she was able to get wound up so tight like she had a few triple espressos followed by a Benzedrine chaser. Alfred Hitchcock couldn't have done it much better. I was a big fan of Loretta Young as a child. I think this is the finest performance I've ever seen with her. Thanks for posting this great movie.
I did see this movie so long ago I forgot. But, I started to remember what was going to happen next. I remember the letter for non-postage, of course at the end This is truly a wonderful movie with all the famous actors. Thks, for bringing it ❤❤💜💜. I think I will see another 8 times.
Well, you know something is up, cause the movie starts with this day I was doing this, as usual, so that does indicates something is up, and how. I love this film and with all the wonderful actors.❤❤
God! What a fantastic film. I;m so moved by Loretta Young's most talented acting. The last scene when she opened the door, and the way she looked at the postman, like a dead woman walking;. I lived thru her emotions equally. Amazing amazing and amazing movie!
What I love about these movies that are of this time period is the feeling they give me of my childhood and how things used to be in life. I love the set decoration and the clothes and the way people treated one and other. A gentler time for day to day living ... the Blessed early 50’s!!! I enjoyed this movie so much, fine actors and I always love it when it’s filmed in California, especially LA!! Thank you!
I've thought the same thing many times. Recently, though, after viewing numerous gangster documentaries (Capone, etc), I realize we were protected from that reality back then. It existed, but we didn't know. Generally, though, you're right. People were far more civilized and polite. Down south, it was refreshing to move from the north and witness good manners many times. But don't take "bless your heart" too seriously.
I was honestly expecting, in the final scene, that the attending physician and "best friend" would be revealed to have actually been slowly poisoning George.
@@dariabusek3566 I was expecting that to. I was surprised when it ended so abruptly. I picked up a a false clue when he asked "Is he dead?" instead of what might have been a more normal "He isn't dead, is he?" or "What's the matter!? What's happened!?" The actual ending left me pondering another question: Is it legal to see your husband die and then spend the rest of the day scurrying to and fro without ever notifying the authorities? I was also undecided as to whether Barry Sullivan was severely paranoid and genuinely believed his life was in danger, or whether he was a cold-hearted, mean-spirited villain who just wanted to hurt people.
As much as I am a classic movie fan. I don’t know how I pass this one up growing up. It was early Friday morning that this movie caught my eye at the end. I teared up like a crying baby. I haven’t done that since I was 12 years old. I’m 58 now. This was the best movie I’ve seen in a long time and the way Loretta Young handled the role in that movie and she made me cry. I’m crying right now. she definitely should’ve won an Oscar.
Yes, Tanya, what a thriller, I was nervous for the wife. She was always running to do things for her husband, who was a nut case, but I'm glad she got out of the whole thing. I kept saying, "But you got a dead body upstairs!" Great movie, loved it.❤❤
What a good movie. I was on the edge of my seat first time I saw it years ago and I still enjoy the repeats. Loretta Young really knew how to pick movies that were perfect for her.
I thought George was a heel for so obviously hitting on his friend's girl from the instant they met. He made no attempt to be subtle about it and then became highly suspicious of them when he became ill and he thought the same thing was happening to him but in a much more sinister way. He, obviously, had a very mean "green streak", unlike his doctor friend, and couldn't handle the thought of losing Ellen back to him while he was sick. Knowing he was probably dying he schemes to ruin their lives after his death by writing a letter to the D.A. and blaming them for his death. A truly classic film noir study on the psyche of human existence. Thank you for posting another great film!
Because these days parents are afraid to have other adults around their kids we hear and read and watch so many weirdos and pedophiles. It's very scary. So much evil out there
See how REALLY twisted the text- book narcissist is??? What a treat, for those blessed souls that have never participated in a relationship with a narcissist!!! From the instant "George takes to his bed, the dialogue from that point on between George and Ellen, is that of Narcissist and hostage. Watch!!!
Why do you women do that? Y'all even call men narcissist because of the role they have to play in movies and this is from a long time ago women can be narcissist too. Some of you women think you cannot do no wrong y'all with attack men from a long time ago and now.
Loretta Young (1913 - 2000) was a very popular American star having a long and varied movie career from 1917 - 1953, winning the Best Actress Oscar in The Farmer's Daughter in 1947 and scoring her second Oscar nomination for Come to the Stable in 1949. She moved early into the fledgling TV industry with her series The Loretta Young Show (1953 - 1961) which won three Emmys. In 1986, she won a Golden Globe for her role in Christmas Eve. She appeared first in the silent film Sweet Kitty Bellairs in 1916 aged only three in uncredited role and appeared first under her birth name of Gretchen Young in Sirens of the Sea in 1917. She was first billed as Loretta Young in 1928 in The Whip Woman.
Thank you for a wonderful review of Loretta Young' most interesting career. I loved her I "The Stranger " with Orson Welles and Edward G. Robinson. Her television show was on point! Her wardrobe for the show was a show in itself.
I love her thank you for all the info. I always knew she was all this. Now I have a list and can watch her movies maybe in order. Thanks Russell. Jeanie.
Movies of this era were not made for shock value. They were made to make you feel better when you left the theatre than when you came in. There were often life lessons infused for good measure. These taught you to appreciate what you had or made you want to strive for better. Making the viewer laugh with the characters in the film and lighten the burden of everyday living. Sadly movies made today attempt to shock sadden or revolt the viewer. If Hollywood never made another movie I for one would be quite happy watching all the old ones forever more. Cheers for upload :)
Tarn Sand Exactly. It is supposed to refresh us. I have the TCM on the TV and now we have films here on Utube with no commercials. Remember when we had just the tube TV? If it got dark, we called the guy, and he replaced a tube for $24.00 Now we have to pay for the monthly TV, phone, and PC all together for over $100 pr. mo. I have only my SS to live on. I have been a widow for years. This economy scares me. Waiting for the big fall.
+Tarn Sand You said it wonderfully. It is truly sad. And I believe the effect of present day movies is far reaching. It may even point to those who decide to shoot innocent people on the streets and in the theaters.
Gosh Tarn Sand, while I am somewhat alarmed by ANY such "all or none" statements in general, can you please inform me about this film in particular of what you found that "made you feel better" and the "life lessons infused for good measure".…. let alone in this instance, what "made you want to strive for better"???? Personally, I thought that the film ended rather Unresolved, where George's paranoia was surely amplified to the equal extent of Ellen's obvious guilt..... Was it attempted murder????
Dang she played her part so well... I couldn't believe how many times she had to create a cover story. I had to watch this film straight through to the end. Great movie.
Another GREAT one from the times when movies, and stars, were worth watching. Loretta was wonderful, an A-1 legendary lady of the silver screen. They just don't make 'em like they used to . . .Thanks for the memories. . .
That was high intensity nail biting drama for sure...When that letter arrived due to insufficient postage what a relief it was....Very entertaining film...
Enjoyed this film. Loretta Young was great as always, amazing job as I could feel the intensity and her fear with her. The story George tells Ellen ab the bottle ship and then @35:18 - "... Graham may have you alright, but he'll be disappointed with what he gets." I felt so terrible for Ellen and loathed George for being so cruel. Excellent portrayal of an all around ass**** by Barry Sullivan. Thanks for the upload!
this has got to be the most incredible movies of Loretta Young's career. Good dramatics. She has always been one of my favorite actresses since I was little girl. Thanks
I so agree Karel. Todays movies have to depend desperately on specialized computer graphics, endless special effects and plagiarizing and still cant captivate or hold a candle to a good story like the film noirs
40:29 : Mr Phillips, the pharmacist on the telephone, was the voice of Louis Merrill. Cause For Alarm was released on March 30th, 1951 -- just 2 days before he turned 39. Uncredited in most of what he had been in, this was his 12th of only 39 credits. He passed away just 6 days after he turned 51, (on April 7th, 1963.)
I remember the Loretta Young show, where she came out in the most beautiful gowns, I still love those clothes and they have really never gone out of style, Thank yu Miss Young for all of your beauty. ❤❤.
Not bad, not bad at all!! My mother looked so, so similar to Ms. Young when I was growing up and she was much younger. I still have some photos packed away of her. It's uncanny!!
What a brilliant performance by Loretta Young. Specially her performance on the last scene after finally getting the letter from the postman.Marvellous. And the story kept me upto the edge on my seat till the end.Wonderful thriller movie.
If your conscious is clear There is nothing to fear She was. Good wife But her husband was very jealous and proud and manitpative . Some men are just aweful .
Women are too. Please stop attacking a fictional character. Sometimes woman can be jealous manipulative too. Y'all do anything to say how awful a man is instead of yourselves thinking you cannot do all the bad things they can.
When "movies" were still "movies" and made for enjoyment and not to make a social statement. And this one from MGM, the Queen of the Studios in Hollywood during the Golden Era.
Russell Bacon isn't he just the funniest? Complaining all day same thing over and over no wonder he got home late and was so tired all that repeat gabbing.LOL
Quite a long introduction. But, not complaining. Thanks for the upload. I so love every movie she's been in---this one was great. I Think Loretta Young was a beautiful woman, and a dang good actor. She had the sweetest disposition. The postman was a complainer. But, a good diversion is always good.
I have loved Loretta Young since I was a small child, in the 60s. I think it had a lot to do with her and my mom, having similar smiles, with high cheekbones. But she was about the best dramatic actresses of her era. Even this movie had that drama where I was really feeling her, trying to get that letter back. Her and Spring Brighton were the sweetheart faces, I saw most on the screen, in the 60s. I wondered why I love old movies so, and figured maybe I was seeing things from my mom's era, is why. But there's no denying the acting was on point. Seems like the less money they made, the greater the acting. Most actors back then wasn't just trying to fatten their pockets, they were trying to pay rent. So they gave their ALL. And I know good acting when I see it.
What a great movie. I was on the edge of my seat all the way through. I married a George, and I could totally relate to her fear and anxiety. My husband died to, and he like to point his guns. My God, that is more common behavior than what I thought. Anyway she is an amazing actress. Did she receive an academy for this movie, because she should have.
I just discovered this channel while searching film noir. One of the best and most timeless genres in film. Thank you for preserving by uploading this and other noir films. Hope you have The Stranger in your archive.

I was a Wife for 20 years. He Endentured and enslaved me in a dependant way...who knows what the Future holds but if you're in love, you're not alone and can withstand anything together!
My whole life I live on the edge. But not like her. Just a bunch of city officials want me dead. They don't want to be exposed. I got my own army now. they spend taxpayers money on cases that were long over with and trial them anyway.
I’m 42 and would watch these olden movies with my Nana when I was little. I watch them now with my son. The acting today can’t match the acting back then. Seriously was a nail biter ❤😂
Excellent, edge-of-the-seat thriller!!! Never seen Loretta, act so feverishly👍. She usually is given, staid comedy roles, with nothing memorable. Good picture, overall. But I wouldn't label it, as film noir. First of all, it's shot in daylight🙄…………
George was trippin'. Ellen was a good ass wife & he continuously pushed her away til his death & wore her down. She really cared about him & he stressed her out.
How one angry, paranoid, narcissistic, lying, threatening, and psychotic man can ruin the lives of his closest people. A horrible, manipulative and controlling man who didn't like her chatting with the neighbors, a sweet little boy, even his own doctor. With his hand around her throat. Exploiting his illness to exploit her. There are narcissistic abusers today. This is a cautionary tale, in a bygone age.
Never saw Loretta do ANYTHING that wasnt wonderful!

+LindaMcDonald Mami, you know she had a t.v. show in the 50s or 60s? Her looks however are equally suited to anywhere late 40s through today, I think because her frame is slender, and her face reflects that.
I saw this movie as a kid, not seen it in ages. Loretta lived a few blocks from me. I saw her on occasion, she was more beautiful in real life. Such a sweet lady.

Robert Gardea I, and at least 10 other people, agree with Mary.
Excellent analysis of a character slowly becoming all unglued.
I was honestly expecting, in the final scene, that the attending physician and "best friend" would be revealed to have actually been slowly poisoning George.
Yes. If she loved her husband she would've called the doc. as soon as he collapsed.

Loretta was/is /will be a dream
Wow he was suspecting about his beautiful wife, poor man now he is resting in peace. Good movie, indeed!
All the way through this movie I kept trying to figure out how it could end well. This one keeps you on the edge of your seat, what a thriller.
I always think about the hays code
Yes, Tanya, what a thriller, I was nervous for the wife. She was always running to do things for her husband, who was a nut case, but I'm glad she got out of the whole thing. I kept saying, "But you got a dead body upstairs!" Great movie, loved it.❤❤

Great conversation with the little Hoppy. Adults don’t spend any time with kids anymore and neighbors kids less!
Because these days parents are afraid to have other adults around their kids we hear and read and watch so many weirdos and pedophiles. It's very scary. So much evil out there
Loretta should have a Academy Award for her performance.
This movie stresses me out! It’s well played.

she was a truly great actor-- she carried that movie almost single-handedly -- I must have missed the part where her husband first became disabled.
That was an AMAZINGLY good movie! So much tension. Brilliant. Thanks for posting.
Those were the chauvinist days, my friend
Wow what great acting on her part. Edge of my seat almost from the beginning! Felt her fear too! Thanks

Todays movies have to depend desperately on specialized computer graphics,

Wow! George was a self centered, creepy, sociopath! He saw her as a toy he could break if anyone tried to take it.

Thanks for the update! I was too afraid to finish watching it.
I Love Loretta Young. The greatest actress ever !!!
If your conscious is clear
There is nothing to fear
She was. Good wife
But her husband was very jealous and proud and manitpative .
Some men are just aweful .
Women are too. Please stop attacking a fictional character. Sometimes woman can be jealous manipulative too. Y'all do anything to say how awful a man is instead of yourselves thinking you cannot do all the bad things they can.
Love this movie, very suspensful with a surprise ending.
Didn't know that a letter sent out could create such complications.

Her and Spring Brighton were the sweetheart faces, I saw most on the screen, in the 60s. I wondered why I love old movies so, and figured maybe I was seeing things from my mom's era, is why. But there's no denying the acting was on point. Seems like the less money they made, the greater the acting. Most actors back then wasn't just trying to fatten their pockets, they were trying to pay rent. So they gave their ALL. And I know good acting when I see it.
What a great movie. I was on the edge of my seat all the way through. I married a George, and I could totally relate to her fear and anxiety. My husband died to, and he like to point his guns. My God, that is more common behavior than what I thought. Anyway she is an amazing actress. Did she receive an academy for this movie, because she should have.
I just discovered this channel while searching film noir. One of the best and most timeless genres in film. Thank you for preserving by uploading this and other noir films. Hope you have The Stranger in your archive.
I thoroughly enjoyed this film. Loretta Young was absolutely amazing.
As a fan of Loretta Young this was excellent. The suspense was fantastic but it ends well.
Why shouldn't it end well? Nothing happened.
watched the first 30 minutes and it made me glad I'm single. lol

I was a Wife for 20 years. He Endentured and enslaved me in a dependant way...who knows what the Future holds but if you're in love, you're not alone and can withstand anything together!
Jane25r49, No worries if you marry me. But I wouldn't marry a crazy character like Loretta Young was playing in this movie.
Population collapse is coming our way
@@larkatmic good riddance
Excellent film❣️
Thank you for uploading this! Love these old movies!!
sure kept me on the edge.....what a story!
My whole life I live on the edge. But not like her. Just a bunch of city officials want me dead. They don't want to be exposed. I got my own army now. they spend taxpayers money on cases that were long over with and trial them anyway.
Time for your medication Donald
Why is that neighbour always in the garden tending the same plant? Doesn't she realize she could get sunstroke?
GREAT MOVIE !!!!!!
Excellent! Never realized Loretta Young was such a fine actress and so beautiful. André Previn's music was superb.
Then she married the doctor and moved away living happily ever after!!
Oh, to go back to the past, 1951. Life was simpler. I seemed so,, anyway.
I’m 42 and would watch these olden movies with my Nana when I was little. I watch them now with my son. The acting today can’t match the acting back then. Seriously was a nail biter ❤😂
Excellent, edge-of-the-seat thriller!!! Never seen Loretta, act so feverishly👍. She usually is given, staid comedy roles, with nothing memorable. Good picture, overall. But I wouldn't label it, as film noir. First of all, it's shot in daylight🙄…………
George was trippin'. Ellen was a good ass wife & he continuously pushed her away til his death & wore her down. She really cared about him & he stressed her out.
George was a creep from the start.
George is craaa-zy
How one angry, paranoid, narcissistic, lying, threatening, and psychotic man can ruin the lives of his closest people. A horrible, manipulative and controlling man who didn't like her chatting with the neighbors, a sweet little boy, even his own doctor. With his hand around her throat. Exploiting his illness to exploit her.
There are narcissistic abusers today. This is a cautionary tale, in a bygone age.
Never saw Loretta do ANYTHING that wasnt wonderful!
+LindaMcDonald Mami, you know she had a t.v. show in the 50s or 60s? Her looks however are equally suited to anywhere late 40s through today, I think because her frame is slender, and her face reflects that.
Actually I'm not quite that old! ;) I've just seen most of her movies, and loved em all!
She's a miserable actress.
Right Linda!
I think ur very pretty t
My mom and I love this movie- thank you for posting❤👍
Hi I think ur very pretty blakest cat I like to pet you and make you purrrrr
One of my favorite movies. They just don't make them like this anymore.
5:30 "head bothering you?" "both of them" I didn't expect that in a movie from 1951
Thing is, in 1951 it wouldn't have been taken "that" way. 😀
I caught that. I was alittle shocked.
It was a reference to his hangover
Oh please. You actually think that was a reference to his penis? Just ewe.
🤣😂🎬
Wow...That actress had me from hello...She did a really good job!!!
I LOVE the little cowboy!
This was almost like a Twilight Zone movie.
i was thinking it was like an episode of the Alfred Hitchcock TV show.
@@captchrispike Me too!
This movie has so many corners and avenues…..mind control….illusions….happens on all levels of society fear is real😮😮
Loretta Young as good as an actress as she was beautiful.
I saw this movie as a kid, not seen it in ages. Loretta lived a few blocks from me. I saw her on occasion, she was more beautiful in real life. Such a sweet lady.
The stress on Caretakers is real.
Be informed and, if you can, have a social network .
Timeless classic's are great part of your day to watch one's becomes complete.
That postman bugged me! Very annoying!
I remember doctor making house calls!! Those Were The Days.
