I saw this in the 50's on our first B/W TV. So good to see it again after all this time. The story was great, and for its day I'm sure it was top of the line. Very suspenseful and the actors did a great job.
I can see why Winston didn’t want to leave that hottie
The oldies are the best, great characters and actors
9:15 is this where 'Burke's Law' got their inspiration?
It looks like she has a large Skunk wrapped around her neck!
At the end of the movie the detective got enough movie from the girl to not work another day in his life
why do they make women/girls look so stupid??? its annoying!!!
Spoiler. If the first girl was an imposter, how did she know the names of everyone who was at the dinner years ago and where they sat at the table. She was in the house all alone thinking back to when she was a child. Dad sat there, Harold set there, Etc.
I am shocked the movie has a gay couple in it. Shocked in a good way ..
Det. Winston is kind of a jerk. Is the audience supposed to root for him?
Adverts are a nightmare! Have weak wifi and everytime an advert plays i lose connection and am thrown back to the start.
For everyone looking at these movies and leaving negative remarks…..you can’t watch a 1930s movie with 2020 eyes and 2020 story lines.This was when movies were kinda new still.I think the dry humor is great.
I'm really getting into early 1930's films, both American and British. This one is an entertaining mix of romantic screwball comedy and murder mystery. Ginger Rogers's leading man, Lyle Talbot, turns in a performance embracing both genres.
Notably, after finishing his leading man years he played the first Commissioner Gordon for the 1949 movie serial, Batman and Robin. Then he became first to play master-criminal Lex Luthor in the 1950 movie, Atom Man Vs. Superman. He is perhaps best known for playing next door neighbor Joe Randolph in dozens of TV episodes of The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, as well as supporting roles in numerous other classic TV shows!
And throughout this film I thought I was looking at a young Ray Milland!
i saw a biden ad at the beginning of this movie. That means it's a disaster movie.
Thank you!
That was so very good well Acted!!!***
Ginger Rodgers 13 years prior would have been 13 years old at that dinner party. Bad planning age wise.
THE PRINT IS GETTING SO SMALL I CAN NOT READ IT / DO NOT GET OLD / IT'S NOT GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH
Bad acting, bad directing. You can see silent movie style in some of the performances.
One of Ginger’s few mysteries. Armitage Trail (pen name for Maurice Coons) also wrote “Scarface”, based on Al Capone, which became a Howard Hawks classic.
please enable auto subtitles with auto translation
it's a pretty good mystery, but there's too much comedy
Wow, this movie Stinks……
I would watch an old movie anytime over the cr—- on tv these days. The 30’s and 40’s are my favorite,and I wasn’t even born yet
April 2020 Chicago c19 shut down.
Can't think of a nicer way to spend 3months on state wide shutdown than a sweet classy murder and funky 30s wardrobes.
Drinking 4 martinis and driving model A's.
Where's dick powell?
M. Il. USA. ??
No film score credit for Johannes Brahms I see. I'm only a few seconds into this flick and wondering if other expense-saving tricks will be used.
Great movie!!!
Who else is here because of Vampira?
I never saw so many idiots in one movie,
Ha,ha,ha,???
are they saying the idiot cop banged the woman he was tailing cos hes shoes are on backwards? guess he wasnt so stupid after all
Great movie for lock down. Thanks
Vampira intro brought me here.
09:25 plays like the beginning of every episode of 'Burke's Law".
Is that skunk fur she's wearing?? LOVED this flick!
Noir!
Nice attractive title… 13th…Armitage … Very Mysteriously Intelligent
Why would the villain first try to electrocute Ginger twice, and then the third time he gets a chance to kill her, he just manhandles her, while begging for the combination? ?
What a wonderful movie. I have to watch it twice…once while I’m checking out the props in the movie furniture,chandeliers, clothes and the house itself. Second time…to actually watch the movie. Thanks for sharing your video.
