I don’t understand why most people don’t watch these old movies. Riveting! Thanks for uploading these for people like us.
Because they require being still and focusing on what is happening as you do with a stage play. Also, a lot of people claim they can't "relate" to the characters of period films like these because compared to contemporary standards, the people do not seem "real." What they do not understand is that the dialogue and ethics of those times were different, allowing for certain social issues that have been overcome. There was a certain type of acceptable conduct that was understood and in some ways would not be acceptable today. At the same time, there were other forms of behavior and social conduct that we have lost over the decades. But the basic point is that these movies are dealing with the human condition, which has been the same since time began.
I love these old movies too❣️
The insanity of the Woke world these days is just too much to take sometimes and I just want to escape to a time when the world was not undergoing Mass Formation Psychosis.
People could actually define what a woman is then!!!!
Because they have bad tastes 🤷♀️
@@cindy-mq6plyou are right!!…… i am 58 and i can’t bare nowadays movies and actors 👎 so me too, i escape in good old time with good old movies 🌟😉
I've been watching old movies 🎬 since I was a child!!
Man! These old movies sure take you right out of your surroundings and meager problems. Your worries just take a backseat to your new environment....there in the middle of all the action! Excellent movie. Thank you for posting it.
The hammer right on the needle , your remark . Very good movie !!!
Our individual issues may be as you claim, "meager problems" but our problem as a humanity is massive, if you think they're meager, then sadly like the majority of the population, you are clueless of what's going on around you and in [y]our new artificial and man made environment.
People's preference for escapism makes it all possible.
You are so right. These movies have literally saved my life. No one appreciates old black & white movies when things were simpler. ❤
What a gem from 1952 which I had never heard of or seen before. Broderick Crawford is superb as the newspaper editor and the supporting cast is very good. It shows how with good writing and acting a film can be full of drama and suspense even when we know who "did it" from early on in the piece. Donna Reed and John Derek are very good too. I loved the line up of drunks and there are good New York street scenes. It saddens me to think that most people watch today's Hollywood output with its CGI and massive budgets and know nothing about these excellent films from 70 odd years ago. I give this one 9 out of 10, thanks so much for uploading it here.
If anyone interested at who broderick crawford is. Simply watch HIGHWAY PATROL. Brilliant Actor
@DenisMaringo He was the main star in All the Kings Men an excellent movie!
I give it a ten .
1952 my year
@@axiomist4488yes
Donna Reed... the Donna Reed show... how many people remember that show???
ONE great movie!!! Thanks Ms. Reed...
Me! I still watch it in returns
@@aphill2208 great!!!
Donna Reed, hooker, and bar girl in Hawaii, dawn of WWII in from "Here to Eternity" She was going to marry Pvt. Robert E. Lee Pruitt. A must see movie.
@@jamesnorton8316 She was George Bailey's wife and mother of his children in It's a Wonderful Life. Fantastic actress!
I'll never forget Donna Reed. I was home sick from school watching The Donna Reed Show when it was announced that JFK was shot.
Man...I have watched this movie a dozen times...and I never tire of it! The cast was excellent, and the storyline riveting!
I've watched it 4 times and I love the cast and the story...
I sit down with a slice of >>
🍕 and a nonalcoholic brew - and I'm in for the night 🌙 watching one of these high class flicks - like this one with Broderick Crawford and crew ❤ it...!!!
For some undiscernable reason these black and white age movies intrigue me. I am fanatically interested in history stuff. That seems to be part of it. When some 10 years ago I moved to this country the US when the first time my TV put up one of these movies, I unconsciously felt the interest. I live alone and work full-time. Such movies are my bedtime fun!
Bed with built in television? How?
The black, and white films are dramatic film noir, which was popular in the 40's-50's.
@@kathleenking47 I wondered too... and not at all romantic.
@@brandyjean7015 😂😂😂
Where would that GIANT monster GO📺...HOWEVER
NO ONE PREDICTED SMARTPHONES.
They are the size of an old 19 cent notepad..remember those?
@@brandyjean7015 Esp for newlyweds, lol
The Drunk line-up was cinematically great and Harry Morgan, "I'll never touch another drop again"
Yeah we all know better than that don't we
The old black and white plots are more interesting then the ones of the day
Magnificent ! This is a masterpiece. I say this a lot about these old films, but it's a fact that the writing back then was so much better than the trash you see mostly in the movies now. Crawford was one hell of an actor. I only knew him from my childhood as Matthews of the Highway Patrol, but the few times I've seen him since taught me what a great actor he was . And Donna Reed was a beautiful lady who added quality to every movie she was in .
I'm glad I watched this ; it enriched my life even more .
Agreed. My thoughts exactly.
Great performance by Broderick Crawford in this one. The plot keeps you watching, the character bits keep you involved. i love it when the charater actors get decent screen time, the scene in the bar with all those drunks and the dialogue there just can't beat by today's Hollywood. All those faces, Sergio Leone would have been in hog heaven.
If you seen the film All The King's Men , that another outstanding performance by Broderick Crawford ... also with John Derek . I would love to read those books . The original ATKM is far better than the remake with Sean Penn . This film with J.D. and Donna Reed is marvelous ... 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
You should write reviews!
@@robertafierro5592 thanks for this.
Both lead stars would go on to major things in television. Broderick for Highway Patrol, and where Donna Reed went doesn’t need any introduction.
@@brianbeecher3084 I believe Broderick STILL holds the record on Broadway for whatever the Award is all about!!! (I forget).
This is a great movie from the early 50's! Absolutely love Broderick Crawford, Highway Patrol (one of my favorites from the 50's), and Harry Morgan, Dragnet (another one of my favorites from the 60's)!! You just cant get any better than this! Needless to say, I am a baby boomer and these old movies are such gems! 💎 Thanks for uploading, keep 'em coming please!❤️🇺🇲❤️
I didn’t want to watch this at first, but when I saw the actors I thought I’d watch a few minutes and see if it was worth my time. It was! Great acting and excellent script
Thank you 😊
LOL 😂, it's always the movie that you take a chance on that turns out to be excellent.
Great stuff. Donna Reed, John Derek, and the mighty Mr. Crawford. One can never get enough of the big man.
But I'm so disappointed in Joshua!
Good movie. Never knew Donna Reed smoked. In the early black and white family shows to the best of my recollection no one smoked cigarettes. Maybe a pipe.
So much about this film to admire, from the camera work to the editing to the performances to the dialogue. And Donna Reid, of course. Couldn’t recommend it more. Thank you for making it available!
Donna Reed, class and beauty. This film grabbed me from the first scene. That was a New York where my cousins grew up in three room tenement apartments, but went on to raise children who are living the American dream as professionals living in mansions.
An excellent noir. All the actors are first class. Sometimes one does find such gems and it is a treat.
A great movie and storyline!Always looking for gems like this.
Check out "The Suspect" (also on RUclips). It stars, Sir Charles Laughton, Ella Rains and Henry Daniell among others. It's a classic. You will not be sorry.
This was one of the best movies I have ever seen and I'm 73. It is an allegory about how our crap media got where it is without ethics, honesty or truth. Just WOW! THANKS Chris T!
And we thought they were great them and now they lie,I guess they always did
@@michaelmerck7576 They've always been like this--give them (the public) the old razzle-dazzle.
Great movie and Broderick Crawford did some fine acting in this movie. First playing a confident, ambitious, larger than life, newspaper editor and then becoming a scared and trapped rat with the walls closing in around him. A list acting.
He really makes you believe that he's Mark Chapman/George Grant
Broderick Crawford was amazing in this movie. You can feel his tension. A very underrated actor.
Pull out all the tropes. RUclips can NEVER have too many "underrateds"
John Derek was a CHILD. He sure was gorgeous, what a terrific film. They just can't make films this way at all anymore. SUCH a great film.
@D Sullivan Oh yes. I know. It’s weird seeing him in this film. He was sooooo young.
Derek nailed every starlet he could get his hands on. The man is legendary.
I grew up watching 'Highway Patrol" with Broderick Crawford. Many in our generation loved him so much that when the fledgling SNL had him as a guest host, it was a thrill. Also love him in 'Born Yesterday'.
Ah yes, Judy Halliday was bugging the hell out of him when they were playing cards: "DO YOU MIND?"
An outstanding storyline, Broderick was in his element, playing the tough, heartless bully. The suspense grows with each turn of events, making you wonder when the truth will come out. Don’t expect to sleep through this movie…😅
I have a personal anecdote about face-to-face recognition.
Several decades ago, I was driving taxi and was stopped at a red light. There was no other vehicles or pedestrians around as it was late on Sunday night and I was on my way home. I sat quietly, just waiting for the light to chanfge when I heard a sound and just had enough time to look up to see the head lights of a pick up truck bearing down on me. The next moment , I was getting out of the back seat as the truck had struck my car hard enough to submarine me into the back seat. I called the police and when they arrived, they arrested the driver of the truck for being intoxicated.
Cut to about 9 months later and I was working and arrived at a call at a club for a specific person. She came out and stumbled into the car. When she gave me her address, I recognized it right away and said nothing. we began our journey and she began to tell me about how badly her life had been the past while, with the police charging her with drunk driving after a cab driver hasd turned her in. She looked me full in the face and tols me she would never forget his face. I somehow managed to not laugh at her or tell her how my whiplash was aching at that moent. I don't recall if I goyt a tip or not but I did get this story.
And now she has to take cabs.
Maybe she needs a Vespa!
@@georgemijatovic4060 too old
@@dikbozo *That is a great story!* 🤣😂
Amazing!
love the old movies . John Derek was my favorite actor during the 50"s i had a scrap book whit lots of his pictures . in 1968 i meet him and his wife at the time Linda Evans we had a great time. i will never forget how done to earth they both were.
Wonderful acting, solid script, and great filming! This is a top notch drama.
🎟 I bought my ticket too and man I love these old films 🎥
That was a really good movie. Big stars, twists and turns, everything you want in a noir classic.
Wow, I'm impressed with this film. Great actors, great story line, they just don't make them like this anymore.
They dont, because they keep throwing profanity and nudity in them
Not very CREATIVE
@@kathleenking47 the golden years of Hollywood are long in the past unfortunately. But they live on in movies like this. I'm almost 70 and I still find the best movies are now from more than half a century ago.
Am addicted to old gems.am not really sure if this new age movies will ever interest me anymore.
Who speaks faster, or snaps back quicker than Broderick Crawford???? Love his acting 🤗 can't believe I haven't seen this one before.
Take nothing from BC, but Eve Arden Pat O'Brian, W.C., etc. were no slouches.
Ive always dislike Brodrick. He seemed like pompous *ss.
Philly fast talker
Well put😊 lol!
( I will look the show up) thanks
Don Knotts in the Andy Griffith Show trying to be an authoritative cop. Tried to talk fast and snappy like Broderick Crawford a few times.
I love the bar scene. All those wonderful faces and the comment being "That does it, I'll never touch another drop for the rest of my life."
🎉 these Old black n Whites are the BEST !!!!
The actors are amazing 👏 too
Simples: this a classic! Bites into you from the opening sequences and never lets go until the climax. Do not miss this! Bravo Chris T for making this possible!
This was exceptionally good and worth 82 minutes of your life ....
This is a movie that you will never forget. I love it.
An excellent film, acting was real, not plastic like they churn out today.
Thank you ,Hollywood no longer makes films of this genre
I can say it felt great to watch a movie with substance.
What a terrific movie....thank you so much for posting it😁...the movies today don't have a patch on the oldies!!! 💥💥💥🇦🇽🌷
Hadn't seen Donna Reed that cynical and world-weary since "From Here to Eternity"
I could not take my eyes out off this film. Great film. Thank you for uploading it.
John Derek the movie camera 🎥 loved his face, handsomely photogenic, good actor.
Utterly gripping. Excellent acting by all. What a plot! Thank you.💜👏
John Derek is so good looking I can hardly pay attention to the movie!
And…. as he aged-he got more gorgeous
It's why, he went for Bo later?
@@kathleenking47 He left Ursula for Linda, & Linda for Bo. Bo was underage too. All looked very alike, especially Linda & Bo. Just younger versions. He was a scoundrel.
This year, my television has been mostly replaced by classic films of all eras that I've found here, like this gem. Yet another '50s movie I've never seen or heard of, with great acting, and suspense that kept me anchored in front of my 'small-screen' until the bitter end!
Me also!! 1935-1955 those are the best when motion pictures were good or very good with plenty of star power.
Me too!
🌱.
I cancelled my Cable subscription for good in February and do not miss watching television since I have other things I am doing. And when I want to watch something, I have alternative sources like this.
@@RayPointerChannel I never thought I'd see the day when watching a flat screen with a cable / wifi would be replaced by cellphone and DVD player. And now just small screen w/airtime and no DVDs. Forget the mall Cineplex haven't been there for 2 + years.. and I don't feel Im missing out because 90% is garbage and time waster
Great Movie! It Reminds Me of The
Turner Classics "Noir" Black & White Films. I'm a HUGE Fan of Turnet Classic
Movies.❤❤❤👍👍👍
This noir had great acting as well as a compelling storyline. Loved it!
Excellent & believable performance by Broderick Crawford.
"...thanks for the coffee, kitten". A great way to end a scene, with fine direction and Reed's subtle reaction to what she absorbed; a superb movie moment, indeed.
Never had seen this one before, but since it was headlined by Broderick Crawford I knew it would be good-- legendary actor! Great script, cinematography, and Henry Morgan playing the photographer!
Wasn't the photographer Harry Morgan from the 1960's Dragnet (officer Bill Gannon) and MASH (COL. Potter)?
@@toltec13 That’s right. Harry Morgan not Henry as I originally stated.
@@toltec13 Yes, and it's actually wrong in the credits. Amazing.
It ended the way it should have, I like that about movies of this era..
Great Great movie. Strong cast and remarkable acting. Keep you on the edge of your seat. 👍👍👍👍
I had assumed this was a remake of the 1931 film of the same name, which starred George Bancroft and Kay Francis. But this one was quite different - and both are excellent. What a great cast here - two Oscar-winners, plus dependable character actors O'Neill, DeCamp, Hale, and Morgan, and John Derek in the best performance I've ever seen from him. Terrific show!
Would John Derek be the husband of "Bo" Derek? I thought he went on to make his money by being a Hollywood fixer of some kind, and a photographer.
Yes, he married Bo.
Harry Morgan, always seemed "OLD"
Before he played BILL GANNON
on Dragnet
similar to Carroll o connor
@@Dwightstjohn-fo8ki yes, married to Ursula Andress, Linda Evans and Bo Derek
Broderick Crawford seemed to have little difficulty playing a very authentic bad guy in movies. In the movie,"Born Yesterday,"he played a similarly brutal character who liked to manhandle his woman. Thanks for posting this great movie!
It reminds me of the old time radio show "The Whistler", thumbs up!!
I always enjoy Broderick Crawford (his work always had an certain, unique, edge) and Donna Reed (she's always fun and flirty). So, this flick is somewhat of a departure for both of them (Crawford the bad guy and Reed the hard journalist). [Never really cared for Derek, even as Joshua along-side Heston.] Very Noir, unpredictable, and riveting. Thanks for posting!
DAMN! That was great. Hitting the 750,000 in the last frame was genius.
Agreed with all the comments . Each actors fit their role to a Tee . Even when Donna Reed open her blouse , I thought "Give me some more" Always had a crush on Ms. Reed . The old adage "If it bleeds , it leads" . Excellent , thanks Chris T
That's one of the best Crawford films I've seen. Thanks a lot.
Too bad he never got to team up with Joan.
Him and Glen Ford did a picture together that was great . Can't think of the name. Crawford plays another person that you end up hating or feel sorry for. He was a great.
Excellent film with a great storyline and talented actors. Unfortunate that Hollywood has gone astray from the golden days. Thanks for posting and be safe 🙏
GREAT STUFF! Broaderick Crawford ougta win an Oscar.
First, i thought it's based on Nathanael West novel Miss Lonelyhearts(1933), but the credits says it's Samuel Fuller!
You sure learn new things every day!
Summertime is perfect for noir cinema! 😎
Excellent and engrossing movie. Worth the time spent.
Loved the opening titles, in the newspaper - much better than just a plain page, or in a book form ...
Great movie and actors. Suspense holds attention right to the end.
So youngJohn Derek got old and married Bo Derek. I did not recognize him here.
Thrills, escapes, news. In that order today too.
Excellent. Crawford is always good value, with a useful supporting case.
Wow! Another good one, and one that I have never seen before. I am in Classic heaven since I found your channel Chris T. Thank you again for another good one and deep too!
There's no glass in that office door of Crawfords!! Great classic...Thanks!!
Excellent excellent excellent 👏 👌
Anything with Broderick Crawford is worth seeing...a great presence and powerful actor
This Flick left me speechless and Am a PERSON of many words. Bravo
It’s THE BIG CLOCK all over again. Love it.
I recognize the one reporter as the same actor who played George Bailey’s brother in Its a Wonderful Life.
He does resemble him but it's not the same actor. This is John Derek. Harry Bailey was played by Todd Karnes I believe.
@@mommymilestones Thanks for the information. I was sure that he was Harry Bailey. He looks like him.
Thank you.
I love the old black and whites
"COLONEL POTTER ", what a delightful surprise!
Harry Morgan on dragnet as well
The gorgeous Donna Reed!
Great film. Thanks for uploading.
Donna Reed is lovely as ever against a gritty story. A perfect chance find for my Saturday afternoon.
She had a couple overacting moments.
Maybe showing my age but as teenager I watched the Donna Reed show religiously without fail everytime it was on. She was my Fav.
Thanks!
Great movie with great actors! Always love Broderick Crawford. Thank-you for the upload!
Just discovered these films…what a treat!
Wow! Excellent film. John Derek was as talented as he was good-looking.
Top film Broderick Crawford was made for these roles,a good actor
Really good. No idea what ‘Mark’ was planning on doing if it went that far. Good writing, acting. Thank you Chris T
Donna Reed a real beauty
What a piece of work! REAL cinema, REAL people, REAL acting (when the men were men and the women were women). That people look today as is they were from another planet.
During the Lonely Hearts dance at 13:45 the uncredited song being played by the orchestra is "I'll Take Romance" written by Ben Oakland and Oscar Hammerstein II in 1937 for the movie of the same name.
Man what a Great thriller and Crawford at his best . Thanks for posting it .
The tabloids have not changed.
I saw this movie 2years back and i forgot completely. Great movie and Great acting by crawford. Enjoyed watching again
Thanks Chris I have never seen this one. Good to see Harry Morgan in this. Just off topic the character played by Broderick Crawford is called Mark Chapman the same name as the guy who killed John Lennon
2 January 2023
Another great Film Noir gem that I have never seen until now. I've only heard about it in passing from time to time on "Noir Alley". Great cast and great performances and this is the first time I've seen Harry Morgan (billed as "Henry Morgan" in this film) in anything on the big screen before he became a prominent small screen actor in "Dragnet", and later in "M*A*S*H".
Early '50s film noir surprise! Great writing, great cast! Where have they been hiding this one?
EXACTLY, because I never heard of this film or saw it until now
Derek on his Car Phone; "got a great Historical close up...." he meant Hysterical? ooooops
Wow wow wow at 40 minutes in. He didn't just do that oh my God
Love these old movies like this, this one was really good too !!👍👍
Hey the first time I've seen this video to me the old movies are the best..... Crawford always were a great actor
John Derek was the male version of his wife Bo at that age, but dark. Same perfect, fine features.
Great script and dialogue. I'm gonna look for Phil Karlson directed movies.
