Corrupt cop Barney Nolan (Edmond O’Brien) is hard up for cash, so he shoots a bookie, relieves him of $25,000 and makes it look like an accident. Unbeknownst to Nolan, however, the entire episode is witnessed by a deaf-mute from across the street.

  1. A young Caroline Jones has a moment or two as a bar tramp, Richard Deacon (Mel Cooley, Dick Van Dyk Show) makes an appearance and Claude Akins is good as a sleazy private eye. IF you noticed the bartender he was Vito Scotti who appeared in TONS of TV shows and movies (Batman, Man From Uncle, Mission Impossible and the Flying Nun etc) from the 60's through the mid-90's.

  2. Hello there, been awhile since I've said hi….. hope all is well and that you are still safe & sound. Dracula Meets Billy the Kid on Svengoolie tonight lol, Hmmmmm, interesting. I think I'll check out your movies tonight instead!!!! 🙂

  8. Goodness this is topical. Interesting how the motive changes things. This character killed for money not because the other person was black

  9. Another tangled web was weaved, when one was desperate with dastardly deeds?…too often "life is stranger than fiction"
    ….✌❤?

  10. I wish we could return to the days of hats. When women wore gloves and hats and men wore fedoras and trench coats life was more civilized or so we thought.

  11. I've loved films from this era for awhile and just now realizing they didn't curse much but ALWAYS realized they have the most beautiful women

  13. Expensive Girlfriend. Since the early days in all police departments all over the world, that has been the downfall of many otherwise honest policemen.

  21. Another channel down the drain. I think imngonna take a break for awhile uploading movies. If i donits gonna be real slow. It gets tiresome building up a channel to strt from the beginning
