Betelguese iinm
My second mickey rooney flick in 2 days.
A movie I remember watching with my Dad. I miss those days
Great movie, very good story, well conducted. I could not ask for more. Nice to see Peter Lorre.
Totally silly German subtitles.
Man, love these films. I'm 40 and I've always loved these older movies.
Yeah right….
How does he have a happening ending.? Keeps getting in too deep with this blonde.?
Great movie!!
Well that was exciting! 👍
Good movie!
Was this filmed in Carvel? Does judge Hardy still hold court? Is a man to man discussion warranted?
Quicksand culminates in a brilliant and unexpected reversal of fate, untypical for the 'film noir' genre. Rooney emerges as the redeemed anit-hero allwong the audience to experience the hope that one's life can turnaround and change for the better.
All that started cause he wanted to take out that ugly blonde. The girl with the black hair looked way better.
Five mins in , i thought no not for me . I stuck with it for another ten and it got good , had to watch it through…. Brilliant.
I loved it so much.
Thanks.
Mickey Rooney started in Vaudeville at 16 months old. Judy Garland was 3 when she started.
All the best early actors with outsized personality and pizzazz were old Vaudeville actors.
They don’t make them like that anymore.
Excelent film!!!
Stressful
not getting the money after killing the guy is the most frustrating part of this movie
a 101 of what not to do when doing crimes you could say also the perspective of a regular american joe down on his luck trying to get by and live a life he will love
Great movie!!! Peter lorre and mickey rooney !!!! Such an amazing movie. The only thing was at the end, if the lawyer would have interrupted when the cop asked him, what did you do with the gun?? The lawyer should have said " dont answer that!!" That would have made it so much realistic!!!!! Because, thats a fact!
Doesn’t take much to ruin your life!
Short kings gotta go through so much trouble to get girls 😂😂😂
great film,,sad that the great peter got such low billing in a 'b' picture,,,jeane cagney is good but who could seriously believe little micky would choose jean over that great looking brunette
