It doesn't appear in my viewing. You must have had the cc, closed caption, button on. It is in the lower right of the video task bar. It is nearly available on all youtube vids. From 2 years ago you've probably already figured it out.
Boetticher, better known as a director of Westerns, pulls off a great comic thriller here, with Chester Morris in good form, Janis Carter a stunning beauty and cracking action throughout. Thanks for sharing
@@misskim2058 Well Miss Kim I do have to admit Dorothy was one cute lady! I think back in the day I would of had a serious crush on her! However back in those times an actress or actor had to be better than most of todays actors because they had to act there were not these crazy special affects that cost millions of dollars. Each actor or actress had to act out a believable story!

@@robertcooke1774 70 years old here, Ha. Seems like you might have an appreciation for some of the best cinema. And with good taste for being a youngster, haha! There's so many great oldies but goodies out here on the internet today! Enjoy them all.
There are some very attractive women in this rather routine movie. Boston Blackie, which you can still hear on radio classics programs, seems to have been a pretty good and entertaining show from the episodes I've heard. The movies seem to be relatively decent. Somebody certainly did a good job in finding attractive actresses to cast. In Dorothy Malone's case they discovered a future major star. Thanks for uploading this.
Watched the movie all way threw one somebody needs to slap that woman reporter she is as sorry as the bad guys stealing and taking pictures of that poor man🤬
The "Blackie" movies are always special for me because of Richard "Dick" Lane who played Inspector Farraday. As a small child in the late 1940s/very early 1950s my maternal grandmother would sneak me off to the televised "rasslin'" matches at the old Long Beach Municipal Auditorium against my parents' wishes. It was there Dick Lane provided the blow-by-blow narrative for the ring action. I remember him vividly up in the press box with his big earphones shouting into his microphone, "whoa Nelly", every time the "rasslers" staged a big move. 'Fond memories!
Inspector Farrady: “We need to get in there” Hotel clerk: “Over my dead body” police Sargent: “don’t be so modest lady you still got some life left in you.” What satire🤭😂🤣😂🤣Great gem-thank you for uploading ❣️
Good production values for a B-type crime story of WWII years. The characters were polished, the plot was typical copy of comedy-style (Back and forth as "zany" style comedies), but the damsel was never in distress. There were 'teen's style scenarios (the lady protecting the entrance to the women's hotel entrance ( "...never in a thousand years...), the commissioner's hat smashing skits, and Chester Morris' impersonations gave him much enjoyment. It was planned entertainment not requiring the audience to think. A morale riser movie; and that was what was needed after 4 years of war.
I like to freeze old movies on RU-vid to read the newspaper front page other than the headlines you are meant to focus on. Even though this was set during the war none of the front pages had any war news; really escapist fare here!
I like all these black and white oldies with Chester morris in the roll of Blackie but I have a question ....how come the girl reporter was always on hand for every crime committed ????
Harry Cohn, the head of Columbia Pictures, was happy when his little studio started competing with bigger studios like MGM and Fox, but he said his heart was in those "lousy little Bs" the studio churned out. And, a movie like this one was one such example. They cost next to nthing to make, were barely past 60 minuites and they cmpetently filled the bottom half of a double bill at the neighborhood theater.And, they servedd aas a training ground for a then-young director like Oscar "Budd" Boettecher. Solid and entertaining.
Eileen was not credited in IMDB n the film was omitted from Halliwell's Film Guide, 2nd edition, but I found the name of the actress in a Boston Blackie site: the lovely Dorothy Malone, who was married to Jacques Bergerac, who I just saw in Fear No More, n she was in TV's Peyton Place in the '60s.
@@FlipDahlenburg, That’s Nancy Guild, according to the IMDB page for that movie. I checked Ms. Malone’s cv first, and didn’t see any credit for that movie.
Great movie however in reality diamonds are not rare nor are they actually valuable. It is merely the control by one company that causes them to be expensive.
They are relatively rare, especially colorless and flawless ones. Also certain vivid colors are rare. They would be less expensive without the diamond cartels and clever marketing. Value lies in people's perceptions of their wants and needs. Economics 1. Something is worth what people will pay for it. If there's an abundance of food steaks are cheap. If there's a famine gold and diamonds won't get you a loaf of bread.
natural pink diamonds are quite rare comparitively speaking. Now they have the technology to create diamonds artificially, so yes the prices of these will be much lower than natural or carbon, diamonds.
How is it possible that Dorothy Malone could have such a biggish supporting role, and go Uncredited in the Opening Cast and still Nothing at the Closing...?
I really liked it when, starting at about 19:58, Inspector Faraday looks right at the camera and says..."No, no, not in a million years ! I can see the headlines now: BLACKIE ESCAPES FARADAY AFTER THREE HOURS IN JAIL." And the next scene shows the headline...LOL..! Faraday looking right at the camera was a hoot..!!
I don’t understand why the always lovely Dorothy Malone doesn’t appear in the credits, given that she has a significant part, albeit not a major part. I’ll take Dorothy over Janis any day. 😊
great to see the old days when the press was right there to record things as they happened (instead of stuck behind a desk rewriting other news reports)
Another great classic. Now why did her crooked brother hide that rock in her extra purse? That's stupid. A woman can switch purses 5 times in one day and he thought there was no chance she'd use it? Okay then.
Spirited Comedy! Dorothy Malone goes uncredited, here, even though she has a large part & considerable speaking role. Very strange. In a war with Plausibility, Comedy has to work hard to overcome.. . . some.
at 55:40 Inspector Faraday calls Mathews and orders his car and a squad of men except for one thing, he was holding the Phone upside down, he was speaking into the ear piece, the Phone cord could easily be seen coming out of the speaker that was at his ear🤣🤣🤣🤣
W 1944 roku POLACY walczyli z hitlerowskim wrogiem wykrwawiając się, podczas gdy Ameryka bawiła się świetnie In 1944, the POLES fought the Nazi enemy bleeding out while America had a great time
bom filme recomendo os classicos antigos sao os melhores por favor poste o travesseiro da morte 1945 a volta do vampiro 1943 a ilha do terror 1957 a maldiçao do farao 1957 o medico vampiro 1957 o gato negro 1941 obrigado sucesso
Dorothy Malone played a supporting role. Not that big of a role either so she was not going to get any billing. You can't watch a movie from 80 years ago with today's thinking.
