    At 16:19 or thereabouts, the 2 officers walking in front of a movie theater. Check out the movie playing....Bela Legosi in The Corpse Vanishes. Nice touch!

      That is from Lesson Number One in 'Product Placement.' Also a sub-section of 'Self Promotion.' For a film that riffs on Jekyll and Hyde and a few other classics, this is a unique blend of old school criminal insanity. Belo Lugosi somehow brings it off so easily. Thank you for posting this film!

    CATS PAW - WON'T SLIP! The poster advertising the mousetrap was a nice bit of foreshadowing. It meant the Friendly Mission Fingers heard the two guys talking about was a trap. The poster was right over his left shoulder. Later, in the secret office, a skull on a shelf was behind him also visible over his left shoulder foreshadowing his murder.

    A very young John Archer. His crisp acting style sure stands out in the midst of all this silliness.

    When the guy gets his soup he reaches for a slice of bread. It looks like Wonder Bread. Polka dots on the package.

    Poor Bela, famed in his native Hungary as a romantic leading man, then typecast as a villain in Hollywood.

      Fortunately for him his very thick accent and his ability to appear as an evil person kept him well fed and well stocked with morphine.

      Prevost Not a nice thing to say regarding morphine.Mr.Lugosi,had a back injury,and became addicted to the potent numbing effect of the drug.This " type of behavioral response," could happen to and with anyone,sir.

      I actually thought the actor who played ‘Fingers Dolan’ strongly resembled Huntz Hall. Sam Katzman (the producer) produced many East Side Comedies and Bowery Boys films.

    Isn't that Lou Costello? 38:10. I love these old movies because they have hidden gems.

    • @TWS-pd5dc
      @TWS-pd5dc 3 роки тому +3

      Close, it's Pat Costello, Lou's brother. Lou referred to him from time to time and I think he worked on the TV show.

    • @buffalopatriot

      Yes, he was the producer of the Abbott and Costello Show.

    Originally released by Monogram Pictures in October 1942.
    This is the May 1949 Astor Pictures reissue print.

    I don't get it: the young lover wasn't killed when he got shot? The mad doctor saved him and hid him? And what about the young detective who looks like he's the same person, is it an effect of being a wino on the Bowery and seeng double?
    Great movie anyway, has a style similat to German expressionist movies of the Thirties. Black and white has a lot of visual qualities.

    The Roman numerals in the beginning credits say 1932, not 1942. What's more, the soundtrack definitely sounds 30s.

    An interesting mix of actors. Lugosi was on his way down and a quartet of aspiring young actors trying to establish themselves. There's a bunch of competent character actors and old vaudevillians. Almost all are good to excellent. Then there's the police captain who must have had incriminating photos of the producer or been his brother-in-law. How else did he get the role?

    • @DavidRice111
      @DavidRice111 3 роки тому +2

      He got the role because he's the "go-to" policeman in these old flicks.
