These old movies certainly had an abundance of character actors who (in their offbeat way) somehow actually enhanced the believability of the story, perhaps through their often comic display of human foibles as evidenced here by the photographer and the small-town sheriff -- often quite memorable if only momentarily.
Nice movie. Acting was pretty good. A couple of old actors I remembered from many other shows. Fast paced and kept my interest. Great old cars to see, had style back them. Nice to see some nice suits and skirts! Watching this was a lot better than watching almost any show on the regular TV except old, old shows. Thanks for the upload! 🙏
This is a real kool flick of its genre-crime film with light comedy. Conrad Nagel is one of my favorite early film stars. He was one of MGM's top stars during the 1920s, co-starring with Greta Garbo, Joan Crawford and Norma Shearer. I believe he also hosted the very first Academy Awards ceremony in 1929.
This is a movie most well made
Enjoyed this comic film noir . Nice touch of drama and comedy when films were great!
When movies were beautiful and entertaining. :)
Good image quality. Thank you so much. Enjoyed it.
ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS! Thank you for posting this.
Fantastic visual & audio too!
Thanks again, Filmschatten...how and where you keep finding these lost gems I don't know but am very grateful...great film quality, too. Keep up the good...no, wonderful...work.
Thanks, but I'm not Filmschatten :-)
@@TimelessClassicMovie 😂
That was a fun movie. Very much enjoyed it.
Great video thanks for posting this 👍
Interesting/informative/entertaining. Enjoyed viewing the automobiles/phones/lighting/night club set up/jailer feeding inmates of that era. Realistically portrayed citizens/criminals/law enforcement officials. I venture to guess all the players have joined the dear dead departed club😇-???🤔. A relaxing Saturday evening movie-!!!🤗.
Amiable film with lots of car action and a good amount on gun play.
Thank you for finding and posting! Mare
That Bobbi is a swell dish..VAA VAA VOOM!!
Is that you, Kenny?
They don't make cameras as tough as that anymore.
😂
Excellent production values. Actors did their personas. My estimation is that Frank Milan (Jerry Turner) was the premier actor here. Nagel and Hunt plod along. They're tired of each other. The plot is vapid but the pace is trying to speed it up, but the sequence of scenes slows the pace. As usual, Nagel and Hunt have a "comic" bumpkin to amuse the audience. This is due to the script writers and contract players...doing the producer and director's lower estimation of the American consumer's patience/intelligence.
dabbs greer is really a trip. i remember him in hot cars. cool film and he was a trip.
I never get tired of complaining about Vince Barnett appearing in a movie. I've seen him in 'The 9th Guest', 'Death Kiss', 'Sinful Cargo', this film, and some others, and he's spoiled every single one of them. Somebody like Frank Jenks, for example, would have been far better as the comic relief, and then only if such a character was essential to the plot.
good watch like all these b and w shorter movies.
Delightful! 😊
32:11 Goodyear Double diamond all weather 600x16 Good year was tire installed on new Cadillac...
This pattern matches my 38 Fleetwood new Goodyear tires dead on .. the Cadillac in movie worth about 80 to 90 k in 2021
This idea Hollywood uses for "Comedy Relief" is understandable during time of war - but this is 1937. So I'm assuming it has to do with the Great Depression. The public was just beginning to get over soup lines and dust bowls of the Midwest. Otherwise, this Comedy Relief is enough to ruin a picture.
You've not paid much attention to films. Comedy was the money maker for the entire silent era and the comedic bungler was in 90% of films thru the 1930s.
Everyone is not fat
Now that you've made mention of that-???🤔. The majority of the players weren't over weight-!!!😉
No budget B movies are such fun.
Excellent production values. Actors did their personas, but my estimation is Frank Milan (Jerry Turner( was the premier actor here. Anyone note the Lucky Strike cigarette packages were green? Lucky Strikes had to drop the green dye as the government needed it for something in WWII. Their motto became "Lucky Strikes went to war." Afterwards their packages were white for decades. I know, I use to steal cigarettes from my Father's packages. As usual, there is the "comic" actor for Hunt to throw insults at. The plot is tired, but the dialogue is succinct. The film was well made.
Awesome
This. Blows
dang...look at the size of that camera
The silly photographer and to the abundance of female acting spoiled the drama.
Sorry, but I like healthy girls like Eleanor Hunt.
I will watch any Movie with Conrad Nagel in it.
Thanks for posting.
Pretty good old movie .
At 8:25 to see people all dresses up to take a flight. Those were the days.
war movies
Yes I remember those days in the 60s
A Gasnier movie and it starts with the same music as Reefer Madness. Small music library, I guess
Nope, copyrights. Whatever is public domain or they own the rights to.
good
I wouldn't call it a great movie. Felt like I smoked a pack of cigarettes, but that is one thing I like about older movies. The cars are cool and the girl will keep you going.
I love old movies, but that wasn't one of them. The title makes it sound like an interesting film about a bank heist.... instead it's a light hearted / semi-comedy detective show where nothing interesting happens. I give it 0 stars. Still, thanks for the upload and keep 'em coming. They can't all be this bad.
Magic
Sleezing ending
Second National Bank? I guess they mean Lehman Brothers.....
I don't think they had FBI back then
Yes they did. By 1937 the "famous" bank robbers (Dillinger, Karpis, Ma Barker's sons, et al) were all dead or in jail.
Nice crimody!
Hang down your heard Tom?
AN excellent movie, except for that bozo Bobby. He added nothing to it.
It's probably been 50+ years since I last sat in a phone booth to make a call-???🤔. Like the pencil mouthed gangster in that phone booth-!!!😳. Vaguely remember that phone party line-???🤔. Very romantic movie ending kiss-!!!😉
Love the old crime gangster movies but they all have something in common. Musical numbers and comedy. Sometimes too much of both. I want to see fast talking crooked mouth gangsters and wiseguy flat foots and coppers. Not singing and slapstick! Luckily this one didn't have some dame singing every 10 minutes.

Did Conrad Nagel wear a hairpiece or a full toupee? Look at the close-ups in this and other films and you can see a definite line around the top of his forehead. That could mean a toupee or perhaps just heavy make-up.
Start looking at the sideburns. The toupees seldom cover the whole sideburn.
If you get past the initial 7 minutes of completely poorly written, nonsensical and inane dialog and plot direction, you're better than me. Plus, there's nothing like credit repetition in the initial titles. There's no disguising the fact that no one gave a damn about this film.
Human Man is a biological machine in the image of the Creator, endowed with Spirit (according to sacred Scripture). Marriage is the coupling fashion of mature male and female machines to produce offspring.
@Slomofogo im with you brother...ignore sheep
@Slomofogo Nothing evolved from nothing. Jesus is God the Creator and Savior.
@Slomofogo Who said that the hub of a carriage wheel is an empty void and how do you know if what you say is true or not true?
@Slomofogo I can only prove you're wrong if you can prove I'm right.
The two of you should get together, mate, and bring forth offspring. It would probably be euthanized.
