After an airliner makes a forced night landing in the desert, some of the passengers are murdered. A detective guarding one of the murdered passengers -- who was also carrying a bag of now missing diamonds -- must find out which of the passengers is the killer!
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen this old Gen Thank You pizza Flix your appreciated very much over the years .
What a lovely gem of a movie 😍 Thank you so much for posting 💞 I will never get tired of these old movies. Can't stand watching the modern movies I swear 😂
I’m the same.
I'll take modern movies over ones where someone uses a racist slur, thanks.
@@graemesmith6721 where only Christians and white males are constantly mock and everybody is gay. You can keep that tripe.
People stranded due to stormy winds and rains , taking shelter at inn or in mansion and that things starts to happen, who done it ? Based on this there are many flicks but this one that too in that year truly a masterpiece with a tight script and a natural performances. Treat.
Watching these clips I've been surprised at how many women were in these pictures. Not just a few to say there were women in them, but quite a few. And they talk to each other the way women do, and they talk to men. And they have groups. While the movies may not be as good as years later, there is a greater naturalness about the characters. Didn't realize how much women's culture is missing in today's movies, even the ones with a female heroine.
Good observation there Howie - never thought of it that way. Thx
Wonderful observation! Thanks
Good point! I like these “tweenies” (after silents but before talkies hit their groove) because there is so much experimentation. And natural ness like you say!
So you're saying that these pre-feminists are just fine and that a lessened male element is even better. Did your wife tell you to say that? As for 'women's culture' being absent today, look at the junk that's coming out of Hollywood, where Political Correctness decrees that there be a female heroine who 'just happens' to have a black or a latino or an Asian counterpart who is ALMOST as strong and tough and smart as she is.
@@leelarson107 What I'm saying is that it was more like life, where half the population is female and participate in society. The rest of what you're saying is just your own attempt to put politics into it. Get a life.
another gem in the rough and the lady was great, another oldie but goodie enjoyed the movie immensely
03:43 - My grandmother would say "Loss Angle - is" though she lived there for most of her 101 years.
I just love how they always found an empty house whatever they lost in all precodes!
Thank you for uploading this, very entertaining. Love these old movies.
Strange at first but we stayed with it. Turned put to be a lot of fun!
Thank you, Pizza, this was great!!😊
Thnx Pizza. Liked this one! Enjoyed the actors, and the plot wasn't bad.
In the Archeology of the Cinema this is a really cool dig. I think it may be pre-Code abd it's interesting to see the way the characters relate to eachother. Also the Mr Ling character played by James Leong is near to early Charlie Chan.
Hollyweird can't possibly write a script these days but we still have these old gems. And as a bonus we have the old technology to admire.
Yes.
And cars, clothes and interior design of that point in time
@@sarahg3500 I have watched so many of these 1930's era movies that I noticed the other day that I am walking around with my hand on one hip like the female stars : )
Yes, old gems where someone casually uses a racist epithet.
Enjoyed this film. Precode I reckon! Some of it was just normal for the time and considered terribly unP.C. today, but there was actually the word damn in it. I thought Gable said the first damn on film! LOL
Yeah, it surprised me too when he said it. I guess before the Hayes Code you were still allowed to say "damn" in a movie. You can thank the Legion of Decency for shielding our tender ears from such "obscenities" for the next thirty years.
Great movie thank so much for this gem 🙂
Love the ole Dramas thank you !
Great movie !! Thanks for posting !! I just love them !!
Thank you
Not a bad movie, thanks for sharing
I really enjoyed this . Thank you.
Was a good one. Thanks Pizza.
Need to turn up the VOLUME on these old movies. The computer-monitor speakers have their limits.
+Lee Larson The computer monitor speakers have no limits in one field, and that's how bad they are! but if they changed this one little incidental character flaw, it would add $5,000 to the price tag. It's WAAAAAYYYY better to purchase your dream speakers and hook up the computer to them!! My dream speakers were always BOSE. So, I got me the Bowes CD and radio unit and hooked up my comp to that. EGGCELLENT!!! (egg-head [Vincent Price] in Batman TV series). Truly, listening, PLEASURE. It's def worth the price of the listening unit, which will outlast the number of computers one might purchase in their lifetime.
+LIZZIE SANGI Sangi (Lizzie) You can always use headphones instead of buying expensive Bose or things like that.
snmkytkn yEA, sure. One can buy any speaker, etc with a better sound than the lone computer, the sound that comes out of the headphones is only going to be as good as what is coming out of your speakers. One can hook it up to their TV, if that has good audio. :-)
Thanks for sharing this. I have wanted to buy a Bowes for a long time, but just never could justify the price. My Christmas present to ME has just been found.
Mamma Kaye Lee
Remember: BOSE SPEAKERS!
Thanks for another enjoyable upload.
I love mysteries from the 1930's - this was a good one!
Nice Ford Tri-Motor.
thank you so much for sharing
Really liked this movie! Thankyou! I was sure the villain was going to be the dastardly cad in the tweeds, what!?
every time the boxer asks "do you need any help " he is refused .lol
Nice plot. It’s a 1932 movie and the electric bulb was invented in 1879. Where are the oil lamps and what happened to the two flashlights from the airplane the crew used to find their way to the Manson? Just thinking....
Love this movie -- especially the old lady
Great movie mystery
air travel has changed quite a bit since 1932
Not as much as it had the 85 years prior to 1932.
For the worse. 😜
I always thought that the Capt. of the plane was in charge...Not some insurance agent for a company...
A good featurette !
Also known as _Who killed Harvey Forbes_ this little gem was enjoyable. I found the Buchanan character annoying answering every comment or question with _”huh?”_ I wish they would have fixed the luminance when it was digitized.
37:15 "Damn you!" a whole 7 years before the damn in Gone With The Wind.
Unfortunately Hollywood has contributed greatly to the moral decay of this nation. The Jews and Catholics that run Hollywood need to take a bow for their corrupting our people.
Thak you
They dine so casually after the murder
The dead man was not an important member of the movie. If he had been, things would have gone differently.
Thank you for sharing 😀
Re 14:00 how are five players playing bridge? Was this some old variant?
Clergyman wasn’t playing.
It was their DENSITY!
“I don’t need any church to fall on me” at beginning
another great mystery thanks pf you anit let me down yet thanks for posting does anybody know if that is charlie chans no 1 son or not
+Candace Gladden No, Ling was played by James B. Leong . Keye Luke portrayed Charlie Chan's number 1 son.
I woulda thought the old lady...
Good old mystery. I did guess right on the murderer! A lot of times I just have a feeling who it is and I'm correct.
LINDA BROWN
But sometimes it’s more fun when you get bluffed! 😉 That’s a sign of a well written mystery! Those are the ones I like!
Thank you enjoy the who dunnits lol keep up the good work fella!!!
i love mystery movies that are in a spooky old house during a storm 👍
I suppose the only material you can get are old videocassettes made from one-light 16mm prints of old, one-light 16mm tv prints.
It was simple~ but it was fun.
Love this movie! Mystery and fun!
Just one question - how the heck can so many people be in a house, with the lights going on and off, in the 1930s and not look for some candles! Other than that, love it. Fun movie, thanks.
45:07-45:13: Wow. Did he really say that? Sad.
Yes, it is. Hollywood is bent on corrupting the moral fiber of America.
Funny movie. The acting is so stilted and melodramatic it looks like a community theater production. And not only is Buchanan a racist, he's also incompetent. The killer has their back to him twice, at 54:43 and again at 55:10, and neither time does this supposed ex-prizefighter jump them. Also, the characters' positions relative to the killer appear to change between shots. Before 55:10, Buchanan was behind them, but in the next shot, he's completely disappeared!
Very cheesy, but its 1932.(ls)
Who came first, Prudence Daggott, or Jane Marple ?
"You know, Chop Suey was really invented by an Irishman" ha, ha, ha- good one😄 Not sure the details where an Irishman could have had a say, for that matter what I think to be right may not be, ha, ha. My understanding was that when the Chinese and Irish immigrants worked on the building the railways, the Chinese used the ingredients available to stir fry thereby providing a fast food to meet the demand created by the workers. If you know otherwise, I would love to hear about it.
I'm glad we are on terracotta again... "terrafirma"! 😂 that was great
I enjoyed this who dunnit and rate it a 6.
This is the weakest pre-code movie I've seen. Now we know they made poor movies back then also. Too many characters, too little developement.
They had talent then if they weren't good they didn't eat and the writers aren't as good as producers figure they can increase their profit margin by getting fewer writers so sai Eddie Albert of green acree
Well, a B movie sloping toward the C range. They saved money on lighting but didn't use it to pay for acting skills. This would be a campy high school drama club bit of work. They come out of nowhere, abide in a mysterious somewhere, and we don't know what will happen next.
Nonetheless I had a good time watching.
Two words.....Great Depression...... for goodness sakes the world was broke and hollywood along with it!..... cut them some slack most of them were inexperienced...... stage was the thing and they used movie jobs to PRACTICE their skills..... at this point people thought that movies would never last..... glad you liked it though!😁
Fun movie, thanks. The actress playing lol (little old lady) Miss Daggett isn't making any effort at all to look as if she's knitting - see, for example, at 38:15, her hands are just bobbing up and down with the needles. Ridiculous. It doesn't take long, maybe ten minutes of her time, to learn to look the part of a knitter in action. Where did she get actors' training?
Smoking is totally gross 😝
(Shut up, Joy).....
If you find it gross, that's good. Tobacco was one of the biggest contributors to movies. That's why so many actors smoked on screen ... even if they just lit up and took one puff. It was a way for the tobacco industry to tempt their audiences into smoking through seeing their favorite actors smoking. It was highly successful.
Ed bernay's freuds nephew called them Torches of freedom ! Allowed tobacco co. to get the female customers.
And now, it's become the case that, if everyone QUIT smoking today, everyone's taxes would go through the roof (as your benevolent govt does what govts do to recover multi-millions in otherwise-disappeared tax revenue). Smokers, for good or ill, carry an awful lot more of the per-capita 'tax burden' in this country than others...and your govt ~still~ PAYS farmers to grow tobacco.
Remember that (on tax day); in terms of 'Citizens Chipping In Extra', smoking is actually the egalitarian, 'All American' thing to do....
And, of course, Bernays (that's right; there's no ~apostrophe~ in his name lol) et al already demonstrated that smoking not only 'emancipates' women, but it's just plain *glamorous* .
As Fran Leibowitz pointed out, "As a child, I realized that smoking is the entire point of being an adult".......
@@kittyhawk8414…….and a high percentage of those actors that smoked died from cancer
Più che un film è uno spettacolo teatrale
Thank you
