Stars: Anna Sten, Alan Marshal, Jerome Cowan Director: Otis Garrett Spies will not stop at murder in their attempts to wrest a secret formula for a deadly poison away from American scientists.
thank you, for this movie. you really miss the way movies were made, and how enjoyable the actors were and the stories,that were written for these movies.
I gave up my idiot box, boob tube (TV) ten years ago and prefer movies and television pre 1960. Also I haven't entered a movie theatre since 1981, I always found their seats the most uncomfortable in the modern world giving me numb bum within 30 minutes. The last movie I saw in a theatre was Paul Simon's One Trick Pony.
Thank you Pizza Flix. Like many others here, I voluntarily gave away my TV, too much brainwashing. Love these old movies, they have their own kind of propaganda but it's much gentler. Good show.
There are hundreds of great old FOREIGN FILMS. Most have English sub-titles. If they don't you an still get a good idea of what the film is about. The is also iTV which as a lot of great programs in RU-vid.
@Lily Tyler, I seem to run short of movies but RU-vid keeps popping up some that I never saw. Speaking of RU-vid, I think I'm going to call it UberTube, which I'm sure has occurred to lots of folks.
I enjoy most of that there is no profanity and immorality being portrayed. Also there is a real respect for God that sadly has slipped away from today's generation. Jesus is coming again
This one has a surprisingly charming plot to it and I was impressed by the guy playing the reporter. He had real charm. Also the dance scene is sort of hilarious. But poor Nadine being constantly accosted by dudes and just sort of having to live with it...
This is a good movie, with a good story! The characters were charming. I really liked the inn keeper! That actor did an excellent job! That character was someone I would like to meet in real life!
Love these old movies. NO special effects, NO violence, NO expensive, unrealistic stunts , NO gaudy costumes, NO computerized sequences, etc. But plain good old DIALOGUE, PLOT , and a MORAL LESSON. At 1:08:22 The oldest trick in the book, and those thugs fell for it.
What a great actor Harry Davenport was. Everybody's favourite chucklesome grandpa, just a shame he was killed off so early in this film. Thanks so much for the upload
A good movie with the lead actress sounding right with her accent, not like most women in these films. Alan Marshal turned out to be handsome when they finally showed his face ! Thank you PF!
You want drop-dead handsome~ look into Sean Flynn, Errol's son's few films. He was a true-life adventurer, who ended up a photo-journalist, captured, and slaughtered in Cambodia during the Vietnam War. That boy had the best his parents had to offer, genetically!
Doesn't make sense? I was playing solitaire and had no trouble following it. As for not being realistic, I submit: Ironman, Terminator. Transformers.etc, etc. These old flicks have story, plot and DIALOG.
Thanks,PizzaFlix4 such an entertaining film! First time I've seen actors in a movie! It was quite entertaining& fun to follow the story.I,also,do not view tv Much Amy more as there is Not much of value to see. Watching these older films are so enjoyable,interesting!
Anna Sten (1908 - 1993) was a Ukranian-born actress who began in movies in the USSR before moving to Germany in 1928 where she made several films. She was noticed by American producer Samuel Goldwyn who brought her to the USA in 1932 in an attempt to make her a rival for Greta Garbo. After two years of teaching her English and film technique she appeared in three films for Goldwyn which were financial and critical flops and she was released from her contract. This movie was the first she made after the end of her Goldwyn contract and it too was a flop. It was made by the small studio Grand National Pictures which went broke that year (1939). Sten appeared in a few movies after that but none were successes and her last film appearance was in 1962.
Stopped watching TV 12 Years ago Old Classics is All my 59 Year Old Eyes Watch I am also one of the Great Alan Mowbrays Great Nephew he was my Late Moms Grace Allen Whites Uncle
That's what it means to be an American....she did it the right way and became an American and not by sneaking in, but by standing and taking the oath to her new country. Great movie too...
In the good old days, you didn't HAVE to sneak in. America used to have more liberal immigration laws, and actually WELCOMED the oppressed, the impoverished, the persecuted people from other countries seeking a better life in the Land of the Free. Nowadays that's all changed.
@@shizukamori6755 You need to look into Americas past immigration policies. You have to go back into the mid 1800's to find a virtual open door immigration policy. When the big wave of immigration hit in the late 1800's, the country tightened up a fair bit, not as tight as it has been for the last half century. Even today, though, more people are let into the U.S. than any other country, so it's not as tight as you made it sound. The U.S. is not as restrictive as some other countries. And every country has a right to control who enters.
Harry Davenport is the only cast member's name I recognized. He played the part of a doctor in another movie in 1939...Dr. Meade in "Gone With The Wind."
Lately I’ve been thinking when I was a kid I used to love all those monster movies n through the years I came to find out who was playing the monsters except for the MUMMY
I think every citizen of the United States of America should have to take the oath of citizenship every five or ten years to ensure we understand what it is to be a citizen of the United States of America.
Amusing little flick with an unusual plot. It also has the odious comic relief typical of the era, and a weird little moment when the female lead does a dance routine in front of some cops, which somehow convinces them she's not the girl they're looking for.
Apparently, I watched this movie 3 years ago and made the same observation! "When Goldwyn can with great conviction/ Instruct Ana Sten in diction/then Ana Sten shows/Anything Goes!"
I know it gets said too often but they just don't make them like this anymore. No morality or political brainwashing, just wholesome heartfelt entertainment.
