Thanks for putting this on. The Barker Gang was one of the worst. Ma Barker and her sons and Alvin Karpis combined were vicious killers and were involved in kidnapping
Alvin Karpis was not a killer. He was a bank robber and kidnapper, but his kidnap victims were all released unharmed. If Karpis had murdered anybody....he would have gone to the electric chair. Nobody in any of his criminal circle was executed. Dillinger, Pretty Boy Floyd, Baby Face Nelson, Bonnie & Clyde would all have been executed if they had been taken alive.
You're wrong about Ma Barker Fred Barker and Alvin karpis were the brains of the game mom was an innocent woman 70 years old by that time she was killed in a raid by federal agents pardon the papers about her being leader the criminal mastermind excetera was pure hogwash
What a load of crap ! In real life Hoover was hiding in the car until Karpis was in custody. Then he came and said Mr. Karissa you're under arrest to which Karpis replied " no shit ".
This is actually what happens at the end, underworld or not ill things always leads to nowhere and if this lessons not fulfilled anyone then God Save them. Excellent story excellent performance by all the Crews who were related to make this film Better. Thanks for uploading 👌👑🙂🙏❤
This is the only way I can visit the 1970s. It's my only time machine. Going back there, where my childhood lives, is Like slipping into a nice warm bath. But then the movie ends, the water gets cold, and it's time once again to snap out of it. To come back to the terrible 2000s. To face up to the cold truth: There are no time machines. And you can never go back home again.
No, you can never go home again. Really very sad if you think about it. The right now we are living this second will someday become the “ back then” so live it now with every bit of your being as hard as you can cause….you can never get the time back again.
My parents bought my childhood home a month b4 my birthday, my dad is 90 and my mom still in there.reason I haven't grown up yet is home is always home ,for now.
Before he hit it big with "ROOTS", Marvin J Chomsky directed this CBS-TV movie from QM Productions and Warner Bros.Television, producers of ABC's long-running "THE FBI" (1965-1974), which was broadcast on November 4, 1974. Starring Robert Foxworth ("THE STOREFRONT LAWYERS" aka "MEN AT LAW") as gangster, Alvin Karpis, of the infamous Ma Parker gang. Harris Yulin co-stars as "J. Edgar Hoover", an actor, best known for playing despicable bad guys ("FATAL BEAUTY", MGM, 1987), and "CONSPIRACY-THE TRIAL OF THE CHIGAO 8", also in 1987, for HBO. William Conrad, who was the narrator of ABC and QM's "THE FUGITIVE" (1963-1967), and the star of CBS's "CANNON" (1971-1976)-also a QM Production, narrated this CBS movie-and, co-star Gary Lockwood ("THE LIEUTENANT". 1963-1964), who previously co-starred in QM's MANHUNTER" TV pilot, also in 1974, gives another tour of duty in this second QM production as one of Ma Barker's sons.
One of the better and more factually-accurate films of the motor bandits of the 1930s depression era that graced American TV and theaters from 1967 to 1975. Karpis actually wrote a couple of books of memoirs upon his release from prison. The first dealt with his criminal career and the second with his time behind bars especially at Alcatraz island. He knew Charles Manson.
You're both ignorant and full of it. Hoover was a fairly heroic figure who long kept the Democrat Party from turning the FBI into their American version of the Gestapo, KGB and Stasi. Today they've succeeded into turning into a secret police organization. One way or another Hoover managed to deflect people as powerful as FDR from doing this. He also led the only American counterintelligence organization that was effective against the USSR. Things started to go to hell after he died. His enemies in the criminal world, who I assume are Bunny's sources, and Democrat intellectuals have worked tirelessly in the years since to blacken his name. With respect to the gay thing. Interesting that he would be the only major American it would be OK to sneer at for being a prominent gay man. However, he probably wasn't. He was just largely or completely without interest in sex, as shocking as that sounds in our modern obsessed society. His job and organization was his governing passion.
I like historical movies and this one was done nicely. The director made it believable and not too over the top or dramatic. I do wonder, however, what became of the girl/woman that he impregnates and then seems to abandon. And the Hoover angle was interesting to those of us who know more about him than this movie presents. Worth the watch and thank you for providing it.
These stories were so juicy that my dad loved the watch the FBI , the fugitive 😢 The untouchables Perry Mason Everything to Do with crime And the law He was a police officer And had always wanted to be A lawyer? But circumstances of life were not permitted Life can be a Bitch 😢😂

"Old Creepy" was the real leader of the Barker-Karpis gang, not Ma, who Karpis said was just an old hillbilly lady who was demonized by the Bureau to justify her being gunned down by them. Her four sons, however, were pretty bad.
Alvin Karpis was a canadian. His nickname was "old creepy" He wote two books. The alvin karpis story and anogher one about life on alcatraz. Suprisingly what the movie doesnt show you is these guys were bad alchoholics and drug users as well
Yes that's perfectly true he actually served 33 years and was deported to Canada he was indeed a criminal in every sense of the word J Edgar Hoover didn't deserve his reputation it was all lies built on public relations propaganda etc etc
My American friends, I appeal to you.Who is on the cinemageddon website, please watch the 1949 film white heat.We need to find a rare version of the film in color.
Bit iffy in some areas but a decent movie. Karpis doesn’t get the coverage Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson, Pretty Boy Floyd and other gangsters of the time get for some reason.
Hoover was paranoid about everything n everyone, he was a nightmare with too much power, n a hypocrite. Worse than McCarthy n his witch trials. Hoover persecuted gays relentlessly when he was gay himself. His personal secretary, n lover, lived in the same huge, heavily secured house (specially built) under the pretext that being such a busy n important man he needed to have his secretary close to hand (pun intended). What a twat he was tho there were plenty like him n still are to this day. It livers me that people think that Hoover was some great man, the power he had was frightening. Especially if you were on the receiving end, he had files on just about everyone. The least amount of people such as him on the planet the better off we'd all be. Unfortunately things have only gotten much worse. I have no faith in the likes of any of their kind whatever acronym they go by.....🏴
This is a pretty good movie, though it's obviously made for TV and edited to fit commercial breaks. The problem is the ending. It was filmed in a Los Angeles neighborhood that looks nothing like New Orleans. And Alvin was not arrested in his car. He was caught coming out of an office building on Canal Street, the main business thoroughfare. Hoover walked right past Karpis, then realized who he was and doubled back to make the arrest. The building is still there.
Ha Ha, Yes! That IS all you'd have to say and you said it very well! As I get older, more & more of these tiny little remembrances from childhood will pop up like the phrase a Quinn Martin production, and after every single time I'm starting to hear the words, "Those- were- the---- days" being sung by Jean Stapleton and Carroll O'Connor. Oh well those were the "Days"!!!!
"Creepy Al" Karpis, who was detested and feared by both guards and most inmates for his perverted evil was Charley Manson's mentor, and the closest thing he had to a father figure, during the many years they served together in Manson's early life.
It is interesting that chief of FBI Hoover himself was in field to arrest a notorious robber . And it was ridiculous that his mother was delighted with his robbery not scolding her son .
Watch Ma Barkers Killer Brood. 1960 B/W with Lurene Tuttle. Really funny stuff by todays standards, but her and her sons were a real family of murderous degenerates and thieves. And Karpis fit right in with them.
@@_Abjuranax_ By your recommendation , I watched Ma Barkers Killer 3 days ago in which she shot down policemen by her machine gun and which was so terrible . And it is true story ?

Didn't Like Robert Foxworth In Falcon Crest,I Liked Him In The Storefront Lawyers As Well As Alvin Karpis Public Enemy No 1.Better.
Do you mean him or the characters he played
I liked Robert Foxworth in Falcon Crest too! Fantastic actor
The soundtrack could do with some improvement
Does anybody know how the karpis gang chose their targets
