I'm 75 and love to see these great old movies. Thank you, Timeless, for sharing them with us!😊

to me this is the finest in entertainment. this is absolutely classic

So much intense emotion packed into just over one hour....a great little film noir ....The acting was superb , especially from the Mother ....Lawrence Tierney was Scott Brady's brother , and apparently no angel in real life ....highly recommend this little gem .

"You took you papa's name, and you burned a number in his heart...199436! All the time you were yelling about the smell from the city dump...You are the smell... You are the stink!! What great lines these old film noirs have!

Recognize Lubeck? He was the mastermind in Reservoir Dogs.He really did graduate!

Lisa Golm, the mother, was a gem of an actress. I've seen her in other films.❤❤❤❤❤

Love Film Noir. ! Wonder if not just the films I fell asleep to at the "Drive in " then after play in the playground..the snack bar and the cartoons and then a bit of noir and then simple sleep of a small child. All seems so familiar. Remember the cracking speakers and the anti mosquito coils ? Well...now I am all grown up (?) and a senior. citizen..with time to watch all these films. I still fall asleep at times ! But always go back and watch what I missed. Then there is the wallpaper, furniture , curtains, fashions, cars and five and dimes etc. Makes me smile. Guess I am blessed to have such good memories.

The legendary Lawrence Tierney

"i didn't have a chance to clean the dirt under my fingernails " "nails do get dirty, don't they johnny?" "yes vince, but this kind of dirt you can wash off" (cue camera zoom) the burns in this film are amazing . didn't know film noir had a sense of humor

Perfect example as to why I love these old classics, great story and acting, obviously NO honor among thieves

"Shaddup, Ma, shaddup", what a badass! Cussing his Ma out, even when she's dying.

Decent film with very good acting by the Tierney brothers. The woman who played their mother was also very good.

Superb. Awesome dialogue, suspenseful, and acting specifically the mother. Hollywood don't make it like this no more.

Good one! Big brother wanted bigtime things without throwing his back in to it. Nothing is free.

Boy! Did his Mom ever give him what for at the end! She was magnificent!!

Very educative & touching especially for our generation

If mom would have kept her big mouth shut when he was up for parole many people would still be alive. She knew he was evil but wanted him out anyway. Moms are blind to kid's evil but it costs others.

* Wow! For an old movie, this had a lot of drama.....this guy was a real jerk! I thought it was a very focused and poignant touch that the directors had the focus on his mother at the end, dying on her bed, and telling him how it was "too late", and how he "should have cried a long time ago"....So true. And then of course where it all ended....also a great focused way of letting moviegoers at that time know loud and clear...."Crime doesn't pay"....and that it will break your mother's heart. Very great moral. Thanks for sharing :)

That is a really, really good movie.

Good movie.Story good.Good acting.These old movies never disappoint.Thanks for the upload.

The movie shows that the character of a person shows during youth and the potentialities of later life. Some can be changed by proper parenting, the others are just uncontrollable.

"You are the smell! You are the stink!" She got that right! Great lines! Thanks for upload.

Just finished this movie at 5:00 am. What a movie. Didn't fall asleep one(smile) now its time to prepare for work.

If there was an Academy Award for "Best Monologue in a Motion Picture," then Lisa Golm could've been nominated for it, for the scene when she lectures her hoodlum son about why "It's too late, Vincent."

"You are the smell! You are the stink!"

ROFL ! I love these thinly veiled PSA movies. You can tell in the first four minutes because they bring out all the cliches: The montage of juvenile offenders, the preachy monologue from the authority figure, and the distraught mother who can't figure out what went wrong with his trouble making son.

This is one excellent Film Noir movie. I always liked Lawrence Tierney's acting every since seeing him in Dillinger 1945. This film had great Acting, Cast, Story, Director and music score by Darrell Calker. I really enjoyed it. Thanks for the upload.

Holy crap! I just realized Lawrence Tierney played Elaine's dad on Seinfeld!!!!!

Lawrence Tierney played Elaines' dad in one of the funniest episodes of Seinfeld. That scene in the restaurant with Jerry and George (when Jerry turns his swede jacket inside out) still makes me laugh. I have it recorded to see many more years

Good movie with fine acting. Thank you for sharing.

In the 1990's it was my late wife's primary job to record classic movies (crime drama's) off of TCM... I enjoy Lawrence Tierney, Stephen McNally, and Charles McGraw anytime I want these days.

That hoodlum couldn't even get along with his fellow thugs.

Why would anyone listen to a fool who gets caught every time? Count me out!

This is one of the saddest movies I have ever watched. Lisa Golm is one incredible actress.

great black an white!! Really good acting going on here!! these old movies rule❤thanks for the upload❤🇺🇸😎✌

Only thing missing was James Cagney & George Raft

Movie turned out better than I had expected.

Solid noir from the golden age. Those 'poverty row' studios could produce a one hour feature on a shoe string that $100 million+ productions in our time can't match for quality.

Lisa golm, what a great actress

They say this guy was dangerous in real life ...he's got the rap sheet to prove it

whewwww we the moms last speech was cold.she gave it to him like gunshots,if he had any feelings damn good drama I'm really feeling this one.

LISA GOLM,AS MOMA WAS SUPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, that scene between Mamma and Vincent was really powerful, although Mamma dying after that great scene seemed a bit contrived. Also, I thought it was going end with Vincent going to the electric chair.

good but very sad

Those Tierney brothers were so handsome. Wow! Vincent reminds me of Ben Affleck.

Five gunmen are standing 6 feet from the armored car guard and he reaches for his gun 🤣🤣🤣. Gotta love these old flicks.

Another fine film, thank you again so much for uploading these.

What a great movie, takes me back. Thanks from Portugal.

Absolutely terrific movie! Thanks for uploading this. So glad I saw this!

DAMN! That was a really good movie and so true to life, I mean very true to the nature of persons. The robbery was planned really good so I was real sorry it failed. This was a Very well written and acted movie. At the end Vincent's mother laid it on him so heavy, it was like being buried alive, she really read him, lots of guilt for him to take with him, that he truly earned. Vincent brought a whole lot of pain to the lives of his innocent family.

That guy never grew up. And mothers can be the most myopic of people.

Thank you Very much for uploading this Gem of a movie!!!!

A shout out to everyone out there in la la land.i love 40s and fifties noir.when I see vivian Leigh joan bennet and hedy lamar I swear they could have come from the same family. All gorgeous and beautiful like sisters.

Always looking for a fall guy, and never realizing you’re it.

If you think Lawrence Tierney is a heel here, watch him in "Born to Kill" with Claire Trevor and Elisha Cook Jr. Really good Noir.

This was a good movie!!! Thank you 👏👏👏👏👏

good movie, very truthful in this era. thank you.

Back when they built cars like tanks!

Wow!! What a powerful Movie. "...now it's too late.."

Well written, true to life,believable.... not everyone gets what they deserve in life...his hard working honest brother, the mom especially....but that hoodlum who was given a decent job at the family service station, who got out early on parole thanks to his loving mom's efforts, the woman who loved him from the bank threw it all away because he was an immoral scumbag who used people ! He was selfish. One could argue that the hoodlum got exactly what he deserved. You live a violent life...you often die a violent death as the Bible so states.

Good movie 🎥! I really enjoyed watching it!

Wow some serious acting going on here, Great movie, Thanks for posting.

Years later, Lawrence Tierney played Elaine's father on Seinfeld. George & Jerry were terrified by him in the episode.Off camera, Seinfeld actually caught him stealing a knife (prop from the set).He was never invited back to play a projected recurring role as originally planned.The episode is called ' The Jacket".

TY 4 sharing, I enjoyed this classic very much.

enjoyed this! Thanks for this!

This was a good movie 🎥

he was a poor criminal. he always got caught.

Man, the mother was something. The real deal.

Fantastically grimy little noir culminating in unbelievably moving deathbed scene. Superb!

Thanx for the movie!

A B-movie scoring an A+. Talk about neorealism; all of these gangster films of the 40s have nothing to envy De Sica, Rossellini or Visconti.

54:03 Hindsight is 20/20. Mothers, learn from her mistakes with her son, the criminal. It's universal. The movie is better than the opening shot in the car.

Love the new style Panhead Specials and Those Caddys.. Good flick..

Gee Whillikers! It looks like Mr. Tierney was not such a good seed in real life. From Wikipedia: Tierney's numerous arrests for being drunk and disorderly and jail terms for assault of civilians and lawmen alike took a toll on his career.[1] He was an admitted alcoholic who went sober in 1982 after having a mild stroke, once observing he "threw away about seven careers through drink."[3] In just seven years between 1944 and 1951 Tierney was arrested a dozen times for brawling, frequently for drunkenness.[7] His legal troubles included a 90-day sentence for breaking a college student's jaw.[8] At the time of a 1958 arrest for fighting two policemen outside a Manhattan bar the New York Times reported he had been arrested six times in California and five in New York on similar charges.[9] In 1973 he was stabbed in a bar fight on the West Side of Manhattan.[10] In June 1975, Tierney was questioned by New York City police in connection with the apparent suicide of a 24-year old woman who had jumped from the window of her apartment. Tierney told police he'd come to visit the woman, "had just gotten there, and she just went out the window".[3]

this was a real good flick,a good gangster movie is hard to find these days.i liked Christy standing her ground for her equal share,damn right if she had skin in the caper she should get paid.these noirs films are grrreat!because they don't have to be edited and censored to trash.

I like the way the guy wears a shirt and tie when changing a tire and pumping gas, makes the movie more realistic.

Good old movie, great acting. Even though the moral of the story seems to be, some people really suck and they can only get worse until they drag everyone to hell with them. I wish there had been a deeper and less predictable plot

Papa kept telling him to keep the window closed, to keep out the smell from the city dump. He didnt listen and this is what happened.

Lawrence Tierney! I have to find 'The Devil Thumbs a Ride' 1947. Subbed. Keep them coming friends.

This was a really good film. Lawrence Tierney's character had no redeemable qualities whatsoever. Thanks for uploading.

Great movie thank you

The flash of the Daily Planet Building from the Superman series pegged this film's timeline and location....

A good one- thanks

Great movie with an up to date message. Well done.

One of my favorite Lawrence Tierney movies now. The mother steals the movie at the end.

what a great old movie .& the old cars . they dont make them like that now .

Lawrence Tierney actor legendary 🎬 Hollywood 👁 🎥 🚬 🥃

Basically, a clear and simple movie, with a cogent comment at the end.

Great movie!!!

Great film!

I didn't know Lawrence Tierney was a complete menace to society in life. This is his real brother in this movie - Edward Tierney. He bailed Larry out of jail on one occasion of the many, many times he was arrested. Tierney was a bad ass until the day he died.

Tierney didn't make a lot of films, but the ones he made were memorable. he was an outstanding actor, but an alcoholic. He made enemies with too many power figures. He had quite a temper. Eventually, no producer would go near him. And so, a promising career ended.

White shirt and tie to pump gas😂

Thank you.

ouch! These were the stories my grandfather use to tell me about his life being raised in the ghettos of Brooklyn back in the twenties. Tuff times.

This is bad ass!!! 🤙🤘

GREAT MOVIE💕

this movie is kind of like the James cagney joint the public enemy cagney was a street thug with a doting mother and goody two shoes brother.🥁🥁🤔🎼

Oops...sorry..I ,eat to say Thank you plus for your effort posting ...so BIG HUG ...TCM for your effort !
