      Well, you guys and your forbears allowed to metastasize and put up with Federalism, instead of hanging the traitors that crafted it in-camera! What else as result, could have been expected? Glory as burst-forth? NOW, we get the ending shoved to us fully.

    I am 55, feel about thirty five. But gentlemen these are my favorite movies ever. The suits and ties for sure, not so much the hats, cause I can't wear one. The handsome gents who can enunciate, along with the strong women. I just find that it was a smarter era, minus the racism and treating women not quite so well. So there's that. But you also see that women and others are going to be making some huge changes in hindsight. As you can tell, I'm not terribly well spoken. But I love this stuff

    Great movie. 1 h - so it is packed, and no time for frills, and psychological mumbo-jumbo. The idea behind the suspense is great. Surely watch it. Only one complaint about culture: I thought pulling out the gun for everything - even after a simple 'good morning' - was a more recent (30 yrs or so) thing. But I already see it in these matinee movies too! Otherwise I would not have known it is still an American production.
    Thanks for uploading it. As someone else commented before, these little movies are good stories and leave you with a good 'bonhomie' . Thanks again for the upload.

    Lionel Atwill was such a talented actor with wonderful scope to his characters. But his career was pretty much destroyed by the mores of the 1930s when he was involved in a seamy sex scandal and accused of perjury over porn flix. Such a shame. Today that would probably have boosted his box office!

      @@pinkbeautytwinkle Everything has always been money, or weren't you aware that the Great Depression was in full swing in 1933? At least people today are freer to pursue their own visions of happiness without stifling Puritanical values being forced on them by self-appointed moral guardians. And don't forget that when this movie was made, large parts of America were segregated, and that in many states it was illegal for people of different races to marry.

    I enjoy these old movies for the simple fact that they rely on dialogue rather than a lot of noise like explosions , car crashes , and special effects and cgi.; also not a lot of gory blood and guts ,. Snappy conversation takes one a lot farther than NOISE!!!

    “Hey, if We’re going to suspect Everyone who’s sore on Stockbrokers - we’re going to be taking-out indictments on half the population of the United States.’
