This is Classic Hollywood from the '50's! Love the Story, the intrigue, and the Love Triangle! I have never seen this Film before. I took a Chance, what a pleasant surprise! Good Story Line and great acting! Thank You!
Yvonne De Carlo steals every scene in this movie. Another one to add to my De Carlo collection. A shame that Zachary Scot didn't get a chance to show his chops., but still worth watching. Thanks for posting!
Yes. I actually met her once, decades ago when my sister did the costumes for summerstock. Yvonne was doing the part of the Baroness in the Sound of Music. Not the movie- this was a play. She was very nice.
What a great movie!!-love the 53 Caddy-Eldorado at t he start !!--movie reminds me of myself=overbearing/pain in the butt/mammas-boy/devious/pretentious/mamma blew my nose for me till I was 35 !!-& kept me "Celibate"
Nowadays people blame feminism, communism and give all sorts of stupid reasons, but the truth is, women got lazy. Women can still wear whatever they want, use make-up, go to the hairdresser, but it all takes effort, and women, specially American women, refuse to do so. Comfort is their favorite word, regardless of how ugly, grungy and boring that comfort is. As a woman, you have the choice to go with today's flow, or dress well. I choose dress well, I do not care if people call me stand-offish, conceited, vain or just plain old fashioned. At the end of the day, the compliments outnumber the stares, or is it women are freaking afraid of standing out?
I agree, I only wear raggedy clothes around the house. I still like to dress now. That is sad both genders no longer care about appearance. Feminism is important, but some women like to exploit it for their own agenda.
Wonderful underrated & under appreciated Republic gem.Rare & difficult to find.Just beautiful to watch.I believe this film is one of Martin Scorsese’s favourites & is due to be remastered!Thank you for the upload Lots of fun.A great gift❤️
DELICIOUS BAD ACTING AND FANTASTIC 50's FASHION WITH FANTASTIC 50's INTERIOR HOME DECOR IN THE BACKGROUND...THAT ALONE MAKES THIS MOVIE AN EYE CANDY DELIGHT...IN TRU COLOR TOO
The relationship between the Zachary Scott character and Yvonne deCarlo is confusing. The producer let this ride on the allure of the location shooting for its own sake, regardless of whether the plot makes any sense, or seems formulaic.
This movie could serve as a classic example that bad movies, bad stories, bad writing and bad acting are nothing new. Even back in the old glory days of Hollywood, there was incompetence of great magnitude. Now, on the other hand, this movie was great in production values as in sets and décor and fashion.
Love these old movies. Woman were naturally beautiful with no botox back then . It's when woman looked classy and elegant. Gone are those days sadly most people look the same in today's world. Thankyou for posting.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This was the first full length movie I have ever seen starring Yvonne DeCarlo. She was a beautiful woman in her younger years and a good actress. I’m just sorry I didn’t get to see others. I always liked Howard Duff and Zachary Scott as well. I liked the movie very much! Thanks for sharing!
Yvonne deCarlo was in a series of Technicolor Swashbucklers at Universal in the 1940s. She had already been around for well over a decade by this time. The following year she as seen in THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.
Sparkling eyes and sensuous voice and good looker too , Yvonne de Carlo . Singer and dancer , not bad at all .But ditching Doug whom she had loved crazily all those years so suddenly and hitching up with the preacher , now that's called a real twist in the tale .
Um espetáculo de um glamour fantástico. Elegância em detalhes..chapéus...luvas ...jóias...cultura....casas impecável...uma elegância fabulosa. Os lugares hoje conhecidos através de firmes inesquecíveis 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Obrigado! Pelo carinho desde Portugal 10 07.2024
I think this Technicolor soap opera is a lot of fun. Take it or Leave it song and dance was meant to be provocative and in your face. Yvonne was always good when she fought back.
I think this is Yvonne De Carlo's most glamorous role of her career. Who knew she could sing! What a lovely surprise. Thank you very much for this gem.
thanks for posting this :) but what a weird movie...best part is when they are on the yacht, an emergency flare has been sent up from the club so naturally the "harbor patrol" or whoever those vaguely english chaps are, decide to explode a boat with passengers on it with no explanation or reason as to why. What drugs were the writers taking?
Perhaps...the marriage wasn't that great - the wife lived overseas - as long as her husband was content, it took the obligation off of herself? She could tell he was content because his attitude toward his wife was relaxed... Sooo....a little reward money for the husbands "friend" for taking off the pressure...get it? Stranger things have happened!
What is there not to like,beautiful setting ,"TRUECOLOR",great clothes,cars a time I would have liked to have visited The Bahama's,a whiff of Dr. No,the script is so so ,Noticed that Virginia is noted as a classy place in this and other movies of the period.
Virginia was a green, lush state distinguished by wonderful homes actually designed by architects - many and most from the 18th century. It was gorgeous country remarkable for it's starlit nights...Sound like the movie script? Yeah. Only this is true. "Progress" destroyed that beautiful place like so many other states in this country. - Anyway, this movie was worth watching just to see how many different costumes they could design to feature Miss De Carlo's derriere and match her lipstick at the same time. - Even the furniture matched. A lot of fun to watch during a time that wasn't corrupted by political correctness and the perverse outcropping of distorted and hateful"social" behavior we now enjoy.
I don't know-- there must be something wrong with me-- I just can't get any pleasure out of hooking a wild creature just living its life as is its right-- then hurting it, dragging it, terrifying it, and killing it by wearing its heart and body out-- just for the cheap egotistical purpose of hanging it upside down and being photographed with it as though the person has done something brave and glorious.... If man wants to take on an innocent animal he should do so armed only with his own physicality, just as the animal is. Man isn't anything without a weapon compared to these animals so he needn't think he's a mighty hunter-- he's not.
@faultroy I entirely agree with you... But the two others ladies are not better, they are even terrible. Too bad for Zachary Scott, the only one who had charism, and that voice !
john waller have a drink first, we ll meet for drinks , let’s get a drink ? How about we meet at 7 for drinks , did you have a drink ? I only had a few drinks , why don’t you have a drink first, drinks all around , pay no attention to Bill, he’s had a few too many drinks, just one more drink before , last night ... I can’t remember, I had one too many drinks , what do you have to do to get a drink around here, you got anything to drink around here, I’d offer you a drink but I’m fresh out of bourbon. The possibilities are endless!
Strange but Yvonne looks about 45 here-- must be the hair and makeup-- Duff looks younger than she does, yet in real life he's about 10 years older than she is.
That was the times fashion etc.Try to understand the social political and economic environment back then.The producer/directors/team would have considered all aspects of the film before release.@@paulminervino8298
@@ariesred777 Yeah, I'm aware of that. There was no Black Sabbath, Rap, or Hate Mommy, Kill Daddy, or beat the Ho' yet. The era was gentler and somewhat innocent as contrasted by the coarseness of today. Be well aries red!
Given that we are celebrating Modernism Week in Palm Springs, I thought this would be fun to watch. All the sets in this movie were beautifully done and what a fun cast. Thanks for posting this.
Now ain't that the truth; she got the casino owner, her former boss, her old flame and even the preacher! Got to hand it to 'em; the power of a pretty woman is awesome!
So the fish doesn't look that big when it's on the boat, but when it's hanging up it looks HUGH! And she reeled it in without even a blister. The Spanish translation are a distraction. Loved the scenery, but not the story line.
Did you not know how to spell "HUGE"? It is not the Spanish translation ARE, it is the Spanish translation IS. And the Spanish wasn't translation, it is called sub-titles twit.
What a fun movie. The interior decorating styles looked just the houses of wealthy people I used to babysit for. James Arnes as a blonde😝 While I know Yvonne D’Carlo was a professional dancer, I thought she was an awful dancer in this movie-stiff and jerky.
Dorothy Dandridge- wonderful and troubled dancer and actress passed away tragically in 1965... like MM. Ms. de Carlo- unsung heroine now like Mammi van Damme or Kim Novak or Jayne Mansfield; Ava Gardner of course legendary celebrity... Frank Sinatra's wife. Thank you for sharing the colorfull and up-beat movie from the best years of Hollywood.. when everything was different... maybe even better...
