- If you like this movie and our channel, please subscribe: goo.gl/0qDmXe | Lady Gangster is a Film Noir movie directed by Robert Florey, credited as "Florian Roberts". It is based on the play "Gangstress", or "Women in Prison" by Dorothy Mackaye, who had spent ten months of a one-to-three-years sentence in San Quentin State Prison. "Lady Gangster" is a remake of the pre-Code film "Ladies They Talk About" (1933). Jackie Gleason plays a supporting role.
The movie is about Dorothy "Dot" Burton (Faye Emerson), who is a member of a gang of bank robbers. Using her femininity and a cute dog provided her by her male cohorts who dognapped him, she is able to enter a bank before opening time, leaving the door open and the bank guard holding her dog, thus enabling a successful robbery. When police interfere with the getaway she faints and proclaims her innocence, however the police have strong doubts as "her" dog won't come to her and has a different name on his collar than what she calls him. After she confesses to her part in the robbery, she is sent to women's prison where she makes enemies of fellow inmates seeking Dot's share of the money.

I love these films. I'm 32. Watched my first three Noir Films, Detour, Time Table and this one. No special FX and CGI and little technology. I love these films
atta boy. its comforting to us seniors that younger folk carry on with us and enjoy these old films . i recommend Angels With Dirty Faces, you may enjoy that also. its a film i saw as a boy many many yrs ago, with my mother.
@@OurladyrulesThat’s a really good movie!!
thank you, i think i will watch it tonight as you have reminded me of it! 🥂
ps this is for hazeleyes 🙏
and moms spirit will be on the couch beside me!
@@hazeleyes1951 Dead End is another great one of that era too. cheers miss hazeleyes 🥂
Great! Life was so simple in those days! A jolly film, without anything grissly:) Thanks
Jackie Gleason as a bank robber and William Hopper (who played Paul Drake on Perry Mason) both in the same "film noir" movie, great!
At 22:10 Hopper, in nascent, classic Paul Drake style, hikes up his trouser leg, sits on the corner of the desk, delivers the rhetorical question: "Well, she's in the state prison now, so what are you going to do", then lights a cigarette.
Jackie Gleason is always behind the wheel, from getaway car in the '40s to bus in the '50s
In more ways than one, from directing to his orchestra too!
That's why she ran fast..
The Greatest. Getaway.
Lmao...👍
Faye Emerson was beautiful.
This is an unbelievable film! Fantastic! It keeps building until you can't stand it anymore. Nothing today even comes close.
I really hope this channel is revived.
Loving these black and white classics all day long we push sub button keep it going
Request: Keep posting these Timeless Classics (& Thank you!)
I think William Hopper's wig should have won an Academy Award.
What wig?
This film is really good and fun to watch. It's action packed. Thanks for posting this.
Oh yes. I love watching these old noir films too. Way before my generation. I've even purchased quite a few of them. They don't make em like this anymore. 👍
Faye Emerson's (Dot Burton) forehead is higher than some of my friends from college. Great film....the brothers Warner never disappoint. Thank you for archiving and posting.
The guard get frightened and drop the poor 🐕
My background being in a large city emergency service, and having experience with the folks who dispatch the calls and their protocols, I couldn't help but chuckle when the policeman announced "man with a knife running amok". Ain't the way it's really done, but that's one reason we love the movies, right? 😂
way it was done back in the day. when news reporters could trample through crime scenes as well. before we learned better. thank you for your service 🌺👍
back in the day that s how it was done.
Great movie! Good to see Jackie Gleason,26, and William Hopper (Paul Drake), 27. Well acted by all.
Absolotly
Yes, Jackie Gleason in an early role, He was in a number of Movies during WW2, before getting famous on TV. My favorite Jackie Gleason Movie is "Soldier in the Rain" with also Steve Mcqueen, a good one!
My favorite Gleason movie is Gigot. I have a hard time believing he was ever as young as he is here in Lady Gangster; by the time my parents bought a tv set he was pushing 50 so that's how I remember him.
I visited Jackie's grave
What part did Gleason play? The nice gangster?
Extra nice Noir film, thank you
Beautiful cars! Well-dressed people, even on the city streets. This was released June 6, 1942. The critical Battle of Midway was going on in the Pacific the same day. Most of the time this movie was being filmed, the U.S. was LOSING a two-front war.
"Now beat it, before I pull off that trick wig and turn you in." 😄
🤣🤣
Where in this modern world can you meet a guy like Paul Drake in the show?
Such entertaining old shows and thanks to the sponsors.
This movie deserves a drink 🥃
the film stars in those days were so beautiful and Jacki Gleason was so handsome
Faye Emerson should have gotten a second opinion on her hair style....her forehead was too high to have her pulled back like that. Side swept bangs would have accentuated her beauty a lot more. Great movie.
Totally agree
wow jackie gleason as a bad guy--before the honeymooners
The dollar bill thing is so clever! 😄
Well done. Love this channel! Thanks
tiny boots went on to be the best police dog ever
Best movie I've seen this hour.
Having low expectations rarely results in disappointment.
When writers could write and actors could act. Though flaws don’t matter and that’s for you critics 🙋♂️
right on! And costume designers did NOT outfit their stars in LATEX and spandex! or no clothes at all!
Yep ain't nothing better than the movies back in the day now I might not have been born but now as I'm older I love me some old classics
@@lindanorris2455 yep
nothing like a film noir with a bunch of conniving women.
Cool the cops sound like rappers in the 1990's I think with beats would be awesome beat tunes too.
Great flick! Thanks!
He dropped the dog (hilarious).
Not funny!
@@dianawardrip5171 No animals where hurt in the making of this movie. South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem was not born yet!😁
" I will play ball with anybody but Hitler to get out of here" what a sentence!
and ALL of Tiny's legs were broken! in the fall.
Lol. He dropped that dog quicker than he could think
I noticed that also 🤗
Excellent "B" movie. Faye Emerson, more of an "A" star. Didn't know it was on here. Just watched it on tubitv, but they don't allow comments.
This was a good way to spend the boring tail end of my shift.
WOMEN'S STATE PRISONS WEREN'T LIKE PORTRAYED HERE; THEY WERE VERY TOUGH.
I hope you still have a shift to work--
A lot of lesbians to lick the klit
@@supermansuperman9066 Ok, I believe you, stop shouting at me.
So good!🎥📺💕
The way the security guard just drops the dog
Good movie, for its time, with all the turns and twists.
Surprised to see Perry Mason's private detective, Paul Drake ( William Hopper), with DARK hair!!
"put your hands up", then "DROPS" THE DOG???!!! LOL in the First few SECONDS !!!?? lol
Love this Material!!!!
great old film 🎥🥂
Remake of "Ladies They Talk About" (1933) starring Barbara Stanwyck.
thank-you! did not know
I'd love to see that one.
Frustrated by the stupid ads.
Thank You😊
Less than a minute into the movie and an ad pop-up. Sigh.
Great movie 🎥 Thank you ❤️
Jackie C. Gleason. 🌟🌟🌟🌟
CRASH CRASH CRASH FIRE HYDRANT CRASH, NO SEATBELTS.
Info seems to show that William Hopper (aka Paul Drake) and Jackie Gleason also appeared together in "Navy Blues" (1941) and "Larceny, Inc." (1942), and "All Through The Night" (1941) and "Escape From Crime" (1942). Humpfff???? Small, small World!!!!
That was in their list of Gay Demands .
You see a lot of the same actors in different movies as contract players for studios through the years.
WHAT AGREAT MOVIE. LOVE POWERFUL WOMEN. LOVE IS THE ULTIMATE POWER
Criminals???
Fred Kelsey as the cop in the back seat of the speeding car. Busy actor, often uncredited. He played in a lot of comedy shorts, Three Stooges for example, and at least one Laurel and Hardy short: Murder Case. Born just 20 years after the Civil War.
I never think of Jackie Gleason having small parts in old movies, lol.
GetMeThere1 orrrr, such a calm and caring disposition! “POW! To the moon Alice!”
@@Twinzma Which isn't to say that the Honeymooners wasn't a great show!
GetMeThere1 oh no! It’s a classic alright, it’s just that’s only way I’ve seen him characterized. His bio is very interesting too, if you can search on RUclips.
He almost rode over that cop! 😄
.... that stool-pigeon chic...Lawd!!! 🤐😶😶🤐
Good one!!
Grea movie 🍿 , kept me in suspense !
Man with knife running amuck
I'm dubious about the "film noir" label on this one. I'd say it's a straight-up crime film. Sometimes a movie will get called noir just based on the fact it's b&w, made in the 40s and has guns going off in it.
I agree. Do you think Westerns can qualify as Noir?
@@epgoldenage7049 Personally I think it's rare - maybe Bad Day at Black Rock but that's a western in a post-WWII timeframe so some people might say it's not even a western in the usual sense. But that's just me, some critics think westerns and even sci-fi can be noir. I don't see it that way but maybe I'm too picky.
@@dontaylor7315 Two I think are possible are Ox-Bow Incident (1942) and My Darling Clementine (46).
@@epgoldenage7049 Now that you mention it I think you're right, Ox-Bow Incident is a candidate - thanks, I hadn't thought of that.
Haven't seen Clementine even though I like John Ford, but I'll watch it sooner or later. I hesitate to watch movies about the Tombstone War because the ones I've seen turned the Earp family into the good guys when actually deciding between them and the other faction is like choosing between warring Mafia families. The Earps were fighting to get control of the gambling and prostitution rackets in Tombstone.
The movie was fine until it hit the convict bitch saying she overheard ??? That would not work in any jail or penetrntary ever. All inmates are liars...pure unbelievable Bullshit!! It went down a different way and some Hellywood Idiot screwed up the plot!!
SPECTACULAR !!!!! THANKS !!!
Great timeless movie, love the ending!
What do you mean you love the ending? This criminalized woman bashes the warden in tbe head with a lamp stand and at the end is still facing parole. What kind of ending is that? She should have had 25 more years added to her sentence. The movie tried to make her out to be some disadvantaged person when in fact she was just as criminal minded as the other 3 crooks.
@Cary Coller "True words were never spoken."😉👍After all, she made the hold-up possible in the first place and indirectly endangered the employees and the customers in danger. Then she stole the loot. Then she not only repeatedly lied to her good ol' friend from the past but practically to almost everybody. Vis-à-vis her confidante, she bragged about how she arranged that only seemingly accidental meeting of that (credulous beyond belief) sap of a man with her armed accomplices in the boarding house. Didn't she even lustfully anticipate how that would hit him like an atom bomb or a bus, respectively? This character was by no means a lady but rather an individual rotten to the core. The and-they-lived-happily-ever-after-ending conveyed the embarrassing message that crime can, in fact, pay.
Nice movie!
Fantastic stuff.
Good movie! Thank you...
Look how gorgeous these women were
It's the clothing style and manners. Even modern women would look that gorgeous if they were taught them. Men too, used to look better
Because there was no plastic surgery back then and they all of natural beauty.
@@Qsv7RQ3ovB true
@@Qsv7RQ3ovB I know
This had a happy ending.
Pretty good crime movie 🎥 with Faye Emerson, William hopper and Jackie Gleason and others in this flick! I think dot deserved a chance after she participated in the bank robbery and put in the women’s prison for the crime-and helped recover the stolen money! 💴 a great film 🎥! 😮😮😮😅
My ex 's fam was bosom buddies with Jackie Gleasom.
Great 🍿 movie
That Dame is a pushy Broad , geeesh !
Gleason got 5th billing as "Jackie C. Gleason".
Good movie!
Faye Emerson's love interest knew her when she was a child. Hmmmmmmm.
Woody Allen's ancestor ...
Nobody said he was a grownup at the time. Maybe he was 10 when she was 5.
Then again, Wilcox was 10 years older than Emerson...
Ralph Kramden(Jackie Gleason) and Mr. Brewster(Frank Wilcox of The Beverly Hillbillies) in one film! 📺📺📺📺📺 😁😁😁😁😁
William Hopper who was Perry Mason's PI was also in this.
@@mwilliams1330 he was? where?
@@mwilliams1330 Good Lord!! I didn't even see him nor recognize him. Yikes!! Dark hair. Credited as "DeWolf Hopper". Birth name William DeWolf Hopper Jr. Yikes!! This movie in 1942, he did a lot of stuff prior. Wow!! Never knew that. He originally tested for part of Perry Mason, but they decided to use Raymond Burr and use him as Detective Paul Drake. He was 26 or 27 years old in this movie. I guess his mother paved the way for him. Note: Raymond Burr as Perry Mason in his Test, and then in like the first season, was actually quite nasty. Not overt to committing egregious acts.
This is the BEST movie I have ever seen, in my life!!!
@aspenrebel no offense, but you should probably watch more movies.
Watch Cagney's "THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE"...excellent!!!
I don’t like that the dog was apparently just taken back to the shelter!!! He was cuter than anyone else in the movie!!!
Seeing Jackie Gleason in this classic..Wow! The other actor, I think it was Frank Wilcox or Roland Drew ( don’t know which one), was the Oil CEO on the Beverly Hillbillies when Jed stuck oil. Another classic actor👍! I enjoyed this noir film very much..Thanks for posting it and God bless✝️!
It was Wilcox.
@@marcbahn5487 thank you sir🙂👍!
Today there is no legal way the police could have held her without charging her, or released her in the custody of a radio personality.
Q
They can legally throw her in a mental hospital any time they want
Jackie Gleason was a terrible movie star but when television came along he was a big hit.
Was good to see him in movies before Television.
Watch "Borderline".
He was a great actor, all the parts weren't that great.
Hey, its Paul Drake!!
3:15 A clear case for PETA-hysterics.
You could spot that drag act from outer space. Not meant to be funny, but I dropped my iPad.
GOOD MOVIES BACK THEN NOT LIKE THE DEMON👹CRAT LIBERAL HOLLYWOOD MOVIES OF TODAY.
This is illegal these police can't ask these terrible questions, moreover, she asks to see her lawyer, very illegal these cops!
Oh my God they are worse now!
Pretty good.
lOVE THE VIDEO .
no comments about the fish line huh? 😂
they all laughed... yall are asleep or what?
Haha! The 1st getaway car edit....
Info says Jackie Gleason would have been 25 or 26 years old when he was in this movie. info says his birth name was John Herbert Gleason, so why was he credited as Jackie C. Gleason? Hollywood is WEIRD!!!!!
Nine times out of ten they changed their names. Why are you surprised?
The Lady Killers is my vote for best noir. The Brit original.
Half a dollar
Please upload A Tragedy at Midnight (1942)
Its like Tom and jerry intro hehehe
Need "Ministry of Fear"! Please!
abbas mastan universe
This movie isn’t all that Gangster!
Well if it were more "Gangsta" she'd be dead!!! Like Aaron Hernanadez
27:06 Jackie Gleason way before the Honeymooners he looked very young.
blacksultan85 He was 26 when he acted in this film(Jackie was born in 1916). 😁
@@dariowiter3078 And very handsome I might add.
