Another amazing print. Thank you thank you thank you.
Hey, that Martha Vickers was more than a bit all right! Va-Va-Va-VOOM!
Thank you for THE BURGLAR! Just watched it, great flick! I'm from Philly, love the shots of 50's Philly and A/C. Also if you're a fan of NFL FIlms, check the TV newscaster in the beginning. John Facenda, the voice of early NFL films. He of the "Frozen Tundra" fame. Jayne and Martha, Terrific! And Dan Duryea, always a favorite! Thanks again!
"Shoes are very important. Some men pay more attention to the shoes than to the dresses a girl wears "
Hussies who are in it just for the money never win …
Guys don't pay attention to girls shoes.
They are too busy paying attention to other things.
I like Hillary Brooke. She was always so ladylike on the Abbott and Costello show. She always called Lou Costello "Louis."
Nice little "people" movie! Very good performances from all of the cast members, both principals and character parts. I particularly like the performances by John Beal, Marie Blake (aka Blossom Rock; she played Grandmama in THE ADDAMS FAMILY, and was also one of Jeanette MacDonald's sisters in real life), Douglass Dumbrille, Leonid Kinskey, Ralph Graves – and the THREE beautiful and talented actresses in this movie, Martha Vickers and Hillary Brooke and Laurie Lind. (This was, by the way, Laurie Lind's only screen credit; I wonder if she was primarily a model and/or radio and stage actress.) Very good story and script, and excellent direction by Albert Zeisler. I like the songs, too – very much!
Thank you very much for sharing these "hidden treasures" from the era when movies were MOVIES with all of us!
Nice play, good performances all 'round: * * * *'s
THANX FOR UPLOADING
Fun to watch. That Kitty, though, was not just evil. Pure evil!
Thank you, dear uploader. I am an Indian, a self appointed student for my entire life of America and the West. I have learned so much from these movies.
So do all of my nine nephews and nieces. 🙂
Films like this are a treasure! Thank you.
I keep expecting to see Ed Wood pop out in a nice angora sweater.
This movie was originally titled
"Cunts"
NOT Film Noir, just mediocre melodrama.
I love these old movies, good, bad, or indifferent, but his songs sucked.
She should have been burned at the stake. Seem that Hollywood had a lot of cuckolds running the studios.
my new cd not noir but rock. http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/jimredden
it's a B movie but worth a watch. it is a noir in that it has a femme fatale of sorts.
