Real-life Tough Guy Lawrence Tierney's iconic role.
Lawrence Tierney is the man he's so timeless.
The ultimate tough guy. He could easily impress a modern audience
He has such an exciting screen presence.
The woman who plays the mother should have gotten an Oscar!
Literally paused at that part to give her some serious applause for that final scene
These classics are so relaxing to watch late at night getting high.
The name of this movie caught my eye so I pressed it instantly... Now I'm gonna watch it and try not to fall asleep until the end.
2:58am here in Houston Texas.🍿🌆🌙
WHAT A PERFORMANCE BY THE ACTRESS WHO PLAYED “MOTHER”!!!!!! Wow! And I didn’t even recognize her name. Gonna do some research on her....... bet she was from the stage originally. Bravissimo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙋♀️
She was perfect for this role. I thought Rosa was so young compared to the brothers. I checked and found she passed away 1 month ago just short of her 92nd B/D. She was 23 in this movie, looked more like 15 to me I had to check. Good movie, interesting stories behind the story.
In my opinion I think Lawrence Tierney was the best film noir actor in the movies. In real life always a tough guy looking for a fight and getting into a lot of trouble. And the best female film noir actress is Claire Trevor who also played with Lawrence Tierney in the movie Born to Kill.
He had quite the screen presence, watch him in "Born To Kill" which is an adaptation of the book "Deadlier Than The Male" which was written by a 21-year-old kid in 1943. Tierney was just coming off of "Dillinger" and was a popular box office draw. But the movie was ahead of its time, and due to the production code had to be "toned down", the production code was censorship, that said "Born To Kill" still would've been shocking to audiences in 47, and not because of the limited violence, but just the subject matter. As a spoiler alert, at the end of "Born To Kill," Lawernce Tierney shoots Claire Trevor through her bathroom door before being shot in a hail of lead from the cops.
Clair Trevor is led out of the bathroom holding her stomach where she had been shot, as "The End" spreads across the screen. However, in the book "Deadlier Than The Male" Claire Trevor's character is actually more deadly than Tierney's character. In the book, she survives and hits on the EMT who is transporting her to the hospital.......but you couldn't show that in 47, in fact by the production code, Trevor would pay for her crime it was up to the individual viewers to decide if she lived and went to the gas chamber, or if she dies on the way to the hospital, but the code stressed, crime doesn't pay.
I like the warden! We need more like him!
Then re-watch the beginning after watching the end.
Thank you for all these great free movies. The Hoodlum is top notch!!
Anyone ever see Lawrence Tierney play a good guy? Great final scene by the actress playing his mother!
Lawrence plays a good guy in 1947s san Quentin. A very entertaining b film. Barton maclane plays the heavy .
Mother is always a Mother, She never indulge her Children to do wrong things but there's always Good and Bad, some of them never heard of their Parents maybe Boys or Girls and then they pay their own Punishment. Watching this but sometimes I was not in the movie story, just thinking about the future. However, great Writer kneaded with carefully, excellent story, high level casting and ofcourse producer and director and who were related to make this film fantastic. ❤❤
Lawrence Tierney was a tough guy who reveled in bar room brawls. He and Robert Mitchum were the epitome of film noir actors. Check out Lawrence Tierney in " Dillinger" ( 1945) and Quentin Tarantino's "Reservoir Dogs" (1992)
Long live Lawrence Tierney!
Usually, Lawrence Tierney carried the low budget films he appeared in, but in this film, Lisa Golm gave him a run for his money as his Mother despite having a much smaller role, her denouncement of him near the end is a knockout!
Then re-watch the beginning.
Wow! What a great movie! One of the best Film Noir films out there. Thanks for posting!
Gotta love the tie under the overalls while changing a tire....lol
Pizza, an excellent film, thanks for sharing.
I watched this a couple of months ago and forgot to give it a like. I'll do that now 👍
I love Mama's speech ... The first one & the last
the last was extraordinary !
The last speech, Ma looks like Reagan from the Excorcist😆
Lawrence Tierney had said in an interview: "I resented those roles they gave me. I just never
thought of myself as a guy who did rotten things." But, in fact he had plenty of legal troubles
during his acting career: incidents such as bar room brawls. The result of his troubles was
that he was never able to get a contract with a movie studio.
Enjoyable classic upload Pizza. I coulda and woulda watched another hour of this suspense. 🍕 🍕 🍕
Thanks for watching! May the Sauce be with you.
"It's too late for tears son."
Reminds me of Esau:
Hebrews 12:17
"For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with TEARS."
And also many other verses from passages warnings:
Matthew 22:13
Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be WEEPING and gnashing of teeth.
Matthew 24:51
And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be WEEPING and gnashing of teeth.
Matthew 25:30
And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be WEEPING and gnashing of teeth.
Beautiful Movie
The title fits the character perfectly
Lawrence Tierney played Elaine's father in the Seinfeld series on TV.
John Raymond ...He was rude to the crew, they asked him not to return,,, lol
He was so good in this wow
I was told he could have had a recurring role but he STOLE SOMETHING From the set and that was the end as Elaine's father
Excellent movie it kept my attention.
Absolutely love Tierney brilliant movie
Good film. Thanks.
Some of the dialogue was fun.
This part was funny. After they had pulled off the money heist and were in the room with the money.
Vincent: Did you think this was going to be a picnic? This isn't Christmas and those guys weren't Santa Clause.
Marty: Alright, skip the nursery rhymes and cut up that dough.
😂😂😂😂
That scene at the beginning showing the crime of breaking and entering, with the boy using a key! Wow. That looks like somebody going inside a door using a key, not breaking and entering! LOL!
The mother was excellent.
Vincent was a good guy he was just.......misunderstood!
jaja...the dog should have been removed when he was a teenager.
Good movie.
Thank you.
The lady @2:18 was NOT having it. She actually ran after him. LOL
Good flick.
Really Good Movie!!
Great actor L
The actors that played brothers (Lawrence & Edward Tierney) were brothers in real life. Lawrence always played convincing tough guy roles because he was a real life tough guy from Brooklyn. What you saw on screen was not acting, it was who he was. Hollywood had to keep him out of trouble many times during his long career. He was so bad that another acting brother changed his last name to Brady (Scott Brady) because he did not want to be associated with him. If you really want to see Lawrence in a real evil role, you must watch him in "Born to Kill."
Thanks for this info.
Suits and ties in the summer. Imagine how much people sweated in the 1950s.
8:00. What a wake up call!
Sin is so Destructive Gal 6:7-8
Poor Vincent.
A good movie
A good hours viewing … that's what a true mother is … CREDIT TO... LISA GOLM... who played her
Dem dirty coppers plugged an unarmed man!
"Everybody wants to be Mr. Black"
Vincent pissed me off so bad i fast forwarded to the end just to watch him get shot.....
Hes got a strange resemblence to ben affleck
sounds good enough to me
Eh, Vincent Lubeck hasn't learned too well from his street randoms. A 'frequent flyer' in and out of the cans. The bad-seed. A good start for a '50's crime-noir tale in my book.
I love the way people use to speak. LT (Vincent) has it going on as the thug of that era. But he did do Rosa raw. That was down low, dirty doggish (not much different than how guys treat sweet ladies today). The baby is never theirs. Oh but the difference is that Vincent would have thrown Rosa OFF the roof if this film were made in this day.
Its a shame her last moments was worrying about that bum.
Leave poor Vincent Lubeck alone . . . he had an unhappy childhood
+isotope feeney I mean, he spent his childhood in jail . . . how happy could THAT have been?
isotope feeney 😆😆😆
Lisa Golm was sensational in Hoodlum. Her performance near the end where she tells her son "it's too late" is the third best acting scene I have ever watched. The 2nd best scene was Lana Turner asking Spencer Tracy why they could never see each other again in "Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde" and the #1 best acted scene goes to Clair Trevor in Key Largo where Johnny Rocko makes her sing for a drink and then won't give the drink to her. I wanted to jump through the screen and kill Johnny Rocko.
Tierney in real life was with a woman when she went off a high rise.
No police escort ?
Scott Brady and Lawrence Tierney- separated at birth?
No need to, as they were brothers, Brady was born Gerard Kenneth Tierney. Their younger, lesser known, brother Edward plays Johnny Lubeck in this film.
😢
the dragnet was a bit far fetched!
cheesy but ok. that guy has a bad additude with that gas customer lol..."What do want"!?
Lawrence Tierney was something of a bad boy hood-type in REAL life: not entirely great acting here.
Where does the Bible say you are given 70 years to live? Psalm 90:10 ESV :
The years of our life are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty; yet their span is but toil and trouble; they are soon gone, and we fly away. Genesis 6:3 ESV
Then the Lord said, “My Spirit shall not abide in man forever, for he is flesh: his days shall be 120 years.”
You said it, "The years of our life are seventy..." He just wasn't very accurate in his reference to Scriptures. I don't think he studied the Bible much.
More Vincent's... hey feminist there is such thing as Macho!
The hoodlum was a horrible man. I was rooting for him to die.
#JesusChristOurLordSaviour
He's got it figured but good. A born criminal who's got a chip a mile wide right on his shoulder and he's gonna get even if its the last thing he does and take as many of you coppers down with him as he falls. Cuz the game is rigged and they chose him to be the bad guy and he's gonna fill those shoes to the last step of the gallows. Hahahaha, come and get me coppers!!! Hahahahahahaha ackkkkk.....thud.
