Milton and Willie reminds me of Jack Benny and Rochester.
We go out of our way to find films with Willie Best in them. He was a gifted comedic actor.
What is his last name
If you have time to respond thankyou GODBLESS
@@kathypichey4306 - Best.
@@mchapman132 thanks 😊 I read ot over the first time and and the name was there
@@kathypichey4306 - He was also known as “Sleep ‘n’ Eat”. Black actors had it rough back then. He died of cancer, at age 48. He was a fine actor.
Great old film, these funny scary movies are the best. First movie I've seen with Milton berle. I could watch these kind of movies all day and half the night. Thanks for the show. Jp from Indiana...
Love Willie Best . . Love to watch him. He's so good
Willie best should have gotten more roles. Great actor
I loved Willies Best's acting skills. The world was never fair in his time. He was the best!!
@@BeeLZBeebHe didn't seem happy or joyous in this movie. That's what "gay" means. If you're asking if he was a homosexual, I don't know.
Are you?@@BeeLZBeeb
@@BeeLZBeebYou are gay
You’re gay
Wow, Uncle Milty in his youth. trip to the mind reader should only cost half.. Thanks for hosting. Good movie.
This is a weird one! Amusing, good pacing, and weird. I bet they all had a blast acting this out.
Several great character actors in this old film. Excellent.
I only knew Milton Berle from TV, now I see he was a pretty good actor,,,he moved to TV
at a good time,,,really made him famous,,!!
I suffer from insomnia so I was scrolling down and saw this film.
I can’t believe that the war was going on whilst these brilliant actors were making this film.
The suits they wore were so smart, when men looked like men, and the women looked beautiful
These films are just the best. I’d rather watch one of these films than the latest blockbuster in the cinema.
I agree with you completely.
Yes Indeed 💯 Agreed as Well. Sorry but today's movies are nothing but Crap, Killing & Violence, Drugs & Just Plain to Much like Real Life, Sorry but Ya wanna get away from real life, it's an Escape so to speak.
I agree big time
@@jpr1845 yes your so right
@@jpr1845 I concur with your observations concerning this very enjoyable film, and the state of today's film industry.
A young Milton Berle, with Willie Best make this a great little murder mystery (NO one shows fear like Willie). Worth the watch😆👍
What fun~ enjoyed it all the way through! Never thought I'd see John Carradine hopping about, imitating a frog!
This was a really good film, very funny and also quite magical too.
Such a cool old movie! Super funny Milton Berle and Willie Best!👍😁
Absolutely love the old comedy movies in reference to ghosts lol. Great movie!!
Here’s a couple more for you. Ghost Breakers 1941 & Smiling Ghost, A Haunting we will go, Hold that Ghost & Time of their lives.
@@samanthab1923 Thank u Sam. 2 of those I have watched. Not sure of other 2. Sometimes I don't remember the titles but when I start watching I will remember the movie. Just love watching them tho and with Halloween coming up hopefully there will be many to watch. New movies r great but there's just something nostalgic about old movies. The classy way they dressed and acting was more facial than today. Left a lot to the imagination too.
@@lindamoser6317 They are the best. Happy watching thru Oct. 🎃
@@samanthab1923 thanks. Love the abbott and Costellos will.check out the others
@@dtmania Cool 👻
These movies are great! Much better than the newer ones these days. They are all computerized. This is real acting. Milton Berle died in 2002. Great loss for the comedy movies like many other actors in this time period.
Listen...not for Nothin but...can u imagine if we WERE still making movies look like this?? Actors today are just as good and better. The scenery and special effects only ENHANCE what we see. The Scores are much better. Costuming is better. We love and NEEDED these movies. And then we got better. Can you imagine if the Worlds food,medication,etc were the same???
My first thought when the fog horn went off: his phone is on vibrate, answer it 😆🍭
"Eight snakes playing football" 😂 hilarious. Great movie. Thanx!
I had a few belly laughs at this film I thoroughly enjoyed it
Love this movie. Milton Berle was one of the best. Great sense of humor
❤
Val Martin; I wonder if Milton Berle is Michael Knowles' grandfather. The resemblance is remarkable.
Love the line "stand back and stay healthy, stupid". Good movie.
Great classic movie you never see today keep them coming enjoy watching ❤
Love it! Willie is the best!!
Always loved Milton berle and these old b/w- movies top flick .
Willie Best......wonderful actor, died so young 45 years old, whatta a shame...R.I.P Willie, sorry for all the suffering you endured... physical and mental...
5-27-2013 to 2-27-1962
Bob Hope always praised Willie, saying he was one the finest actors he ever had the pleasure of working with
When you have cancer, you have cancer no matter the color of your skin or your nationality!!! It is what it is!!! Nasty and horrible with a lot of suffering.
What happened to him..
@@carolmcloughlin2859..... died of cancer 1962 at the age of 48
Always a treat to find Milton Parsons in a one of his nefarious roles, the professor in this one. A bit more screen time than he usually gets.
Milton Berle's very early weekly TV show (Late 40s-50s) is said to be the reason for records TV set sales during that time period. Everyone wanted to watch "Uncle" Miltie.
OMG - that's Milton Berle!!!!
Best's line when the basket gets stuck is hilarious!! his delivery was perfect! I really did laugh. there are some really good lines in this movie.😋 never saw a young John Carradine - he was great!! thanks so much for posting!
The first time I saw Carradine was with Peter Lorre in "Mr. Moto's Last Warning". (1939)
Very fun, great movie. I love the oldies. Thanks so much!
Love this film, made me giggle so much thank you 😊
Willie Best along with Mantan Moreland as well as others were a irreplaceable presence in movies of that era.
It's a shame they were not given the respect they deserved at that time.
A funny funny movie. Loved Willie Best.
What a delightful movie. Thank You so much!
Milton was quick and slick in this; smooth acting job too. Kind of a fun flick.
Love that spooky wailing sound during the opening credits.
Ah, Grady Sutton another funny man just by being himself. That's acting. Funny movie, in spite of Berle. Thank you.
A lot of people didn’t know that Milton Berle was actually mean to a lot of people even though he was a good entertainer and comedian and a fair actor
That's why l can't watch Bing Crosby anymore.
@@mildredchester I heard that about Bing Crosby also.
So what?
Doesn't anyone ever go to spooky looking places by daylight?
So much atmosphere on this gray rainy day. THANK YOU. Please find another goody!!!!!
I put up things I cannot find elsewhere, you might like this one ruclips.net/video/_ySDN2dynIA/видео.html
Great cast!! I remember watching this as a kid on the afternoon TV movie after school. Enjoyed it as much this time as way back then. L0
Loved loved loved 💋❤️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏soooooooo cute, funny, and mystery! Can't beat it thx !
What I always found funny about these movies is that there was never any sunlight, rarely anyway.
Great B movie! Good to start watch around end of September for atmospheric feeling.
Better than the crap they make nowadays...
The fog horn sounds like my cell phone quietly ringing on vibrate. 😆
Love love love it! Thanks for the upload.
Great old movie. If you have more, I'll be sure to watch. Thanks for the share!
I mainly put up what I can’t find elsewhere. Check out The Ghost That Walks Alone, or this…

Nice fun little film with Uncle Miltie and John Carradine.
What a funny movie! Who knew John Carradine could be so hilarious.
Some people have nothing better to do with their lives than to “bad mouth “ movies!
Well folks! It is what it is and that's all it is. As a kid, I thought this was funny. It should be noted, Milton Berle and Willie Best in the same movie is interesting enough.
Willie Best.....i have seen him in many of Charlie Chan Detec,Series and sooo many Old movies. He was great at playing.....a simpletom.....yet with such unforgetable manner hard to replicate.....i love finding him in many old films.....Sadly not much mention of his talent.....of course RACISM played a large part of the lack of interest-focus mention of his talent.....Thanks for the upload.
Great movie..love uncle Milty and willie best,,it was hilarious
Oihh wow loved all these actors Milton Berle Joyce Willie Best John Sheridan etc etc just amazing actors who cud make you laugh with their acting Ty for uploading this wonderful movie These sorts of movies you won't regret watching them 🙂
“… D’ya like ma dress? … Mom made it for our weddin’. … Every stitch of it.”
Never seen a Milton movie but soon as I saw Willie Best I have to watch he was one FUNNY man.😂😂😂
I never liked Milton Berle as a comedian, but he’s really fun in this movie! Thanks for upload!
So funny seeing a young Milton Berle, his voice sounds different, its more high pitched
A lot of fun. Moves along at a pace as well.
👍,Willie is Best😉
Fantastic. Thank you.
Milton Berle and Willie Best make a great team.
Surprisingly entertaining - cheered me up nicely!
This was great, thanks for the upload, fun movie!
Thanks for sharing this movie
Yeah there's no reason to say ghostbreakers is better this movie is not like ghostbreakers
Ghostbusters 👻?????
A very very young Mr. Television, Milton Berle
Love the old comedy thrillers like this that are smart and the dialogue has wisecracks. Stereotyping aside, this is a fun movie that sounds like it was a radio program or play originally.
Very good movie. I highly recommend it👍👍👍
what a great show! I was lured to it by Angie Dickenson's name but she would have been too young
I was told that Angie Dickinson is now 92 years old. Gee how time flies.
Excellent Movie 🎥
The old movies was more Intertanin than the new ones
Excellent
LOVE Willie Best!
“Never saw a cop who wasn’t hungry.”
Milton Berle was handsome here, I can see how he got the ladies, aside from his famous physical attribute.
Hello Sara, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the Virus?
Did anyone NOT know it was in the globe?? I was looking for a globe through 3/4 of the movie...lol. I enjoyed this a lot.
Those were the days when movies were classy, fine, funny and had all ingredients for good entrainment
Fun film. It sure would not be allowed to be made today. I am thankful I got to live most my life during a time when people were allowed to laugh at themseles.
Good film!!
Wow!
Well worth the watch. I'd give it two bags of popcorn! Some of the jokes were corny but still, you had to stay with the film to catch all the comic references. Thanks for providing it, especially commercial free. The pacing was too tight for greedy interruptions.
Thanks
It's fun, but "The Ghost Breakers" is much better, IMHO, thanks to Bob Hope and Paulette Goddard. But it was good to see Willie Best in this version, as well. He certainly spices up the movie...
See The Cat and The Canary too with Bob Hope and Paulette Goddard but no Willie BEst
actually, no. this was far funnier
I love that movie. Saw it years ago. Young Tony Quinn shows up. I hear they did a remake with Martin & Lewis
@@samanthab1923 they did its called scared stiff . Ok but no were near as good as ghostbeakers. And how anyone could think this is anywhere near being in the same league as ghostbreakers is just wrong.. but each too there own.
@@leemurray7240 I’m with you. Not a big M&L fan. Last time I watched one of their movies was middle school.
Thank you for telling me to rest in peace
Milton Berle, John Carradine and Willie Best made this movie 🎥 but it was hilarious anything with Uncle Miltie is great 👍
Great classic comedy ❤y never see again 😊thanks 😊
Good movie it’s a fave
It's killing my eyes. I don't know what is going on first, MOSCOW.
Really liked Milton Berle in this movie! Age 34.
Oh ! We see a flashy display of "Modern Technology" @6:35 when the lady picks up the Portable Radio and carries it about while it plays ! I bet that radio didn't weigh any more than five pounds !
Uncle Milty haven't seen you since I was a kid. 😄🌿
Those were the days !!!!!! ENJOY !
My favorite line was "He looks an an old pipe cleaner I once threw away...lol! (John Carradine)
Fun and silly. The way the quips land, it makes me wonder if the script was originally intended for Bob Hope.
thanks
Willie Best makes this movie.

@@michaelclark6025 cu,
Willie was always lots of fun.
thank you
This started well enough, but then it came to what amounts to beating a dead joke...over and over.
I recognize the one actor as the man who played the taxi driver on Its A Wonderful Life.
Uncle miltie and Willie are the best.
