Wow! I always watch old black and white movies as they have no blasphemies. I was watching this and thinking to myself - If this guy makes one more bad decision I’m not watching it anymore - when suddenly I couldn’t believe my eyes - his wife sees a billboard advertising a Billy Graham Crusade. She begs him to take her, and he goes along with her (very similar to Louis Zamperini in Unbroken). The Billy Graham sermon was so good. Billy at his best! Praise God that they weren’t ashamed of the Gospel in 1955 when made this movie!
Wow! Pretty good movie. The religious parts were unexpected. It was cool to see and hear Billy Graham so young and vibrant. It just goes to show, you play,you pay, and be grateful you can be forgiven! And I love the cars in these movies! Dig those white walls! 🙏👍✌
I enjoyed this movie. There are plenty of false preachers, but Billy Graham was the real deal. He knew he was a sinner too, not perfect. I am saddened by the negative comments on him, but delighted with so many positive ones.
Douglas Kennedy, standby actor who played an invisible man/bank robber, was in a few Perry Masons too I think. His character pretty much never changes.
@Southeastern777 You seem certain of life after death, what evidence do you have to support your stupid theory? none, religion is permanent peer group pressure, on your knees moron.
Gregory L'Esperance I watched this on your response to Billy Graham ....amazing how that word is still the same! It's real and it's true.. 2000 years later...and the beat goes on ?..glory to God❤️✝️🙏🏼✡️😇
No, that was not billy graham that you saw bellowing out at an audience. That was an imposter wearing a billy graham mask. I saw billy graham at a 1948 meeting when I was just a bit of a lad and I remember that his eyes were red.
Yes I did some research on this and was just blown away . The guy he did work for was big time gangster in California Mikey Cohen . And was told by FBI that if he would have gone to St. Louis he would have been killed. He son had wrote a book on his father (my father was a gangster). The footage of billy graham was actual footage that he attended that service .
Amen !! I was slow going I suppose but well worth it. Loved the ending and what a Surprise, Ol' Bill Williams I am so Happy he is saved !! Married to Della, Perry Mason's secretary. It's ALL TRUE ! Jesus Saves still and don't really worry Just receive Him, Ask away and do the Best you can from then on!! Read the Bible, Col.1:16, the Book of John and keep reading!! God is FAR more reasonable than any man, He Understands, He will accept Your confession. If you doubt and want to experience real spiritual warfare, just confess Jesus a few times to strangers, it is DIFFICULT AT FIRST !!! God, Jesus is all we've got in this stinking world that guarantees your Eternity !!!
The scenario of the film was based on a true story of Jim Vaus Jr. Evangeline Carmichael was married to and recorded with orchestra leader and composer Ralph Carmichael. In this film, she sings "I Cannot Hide from God," a selection from their gospel album "Something Old & Something New: Evangeline Carmichael With The Ralph Carmichael Orchestra and Chorus," Sacred Records (4) - LP 9016.
Brilliant film message was well said.if everyone took it on board this world would not be run by the gangsters this film portrays.and it would be a joyful world.
Wonderful movie very entertaining, there is so much I could talk about the content of this movie, but in real life a Father must be at the birth of his baby and be the first to hold the baby, talk to the baby as it comes from darkness into light, the child will bond with you, I didnt know what to say, to my little boy, but I said " Dont worry Son one Day your going to win the ashes at cricket " and he just exercised his lungs yelling wa wa wa. I cried.
It wasn't long since that lot from New International got done for tapping mobile phone calls and texts.. e mails too. So it's no way just the coppers who tap you.
Once a guy I was interested in told me he was an on call paw bearer for his uncle's funeral parlor, when too few show up. I later found out he was connected to drugs somehow. I wonder if he was a hitman. He had a beeper too at a time where guys involved in drugs carried them just like doctors and CEOs. Think about it, some hit men have been called "undertakers." Glad I didn't get mixed up with him and I never found out the truth about his living.
Or maybe he was some union employee on a call board , 10 on then wait for a call on your beeper to tell you had to be at work in 2 hours ! And we weren’t no doc’s or CEO’s just truckers and dockworkers .
I saw this movie on TV in 1960 when I was 9 years old. Now at 68, God's message is still the same. Un less a man is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. Repent. Confess. Believe. Receive. Thank you, Jesus, for dieting on the cross for my sins.
Great Movie, probably a good read to. However, we will never see books and movies of true crime and what goes on. We will only see what is said in court, which, is rarely the truth. Proceeds of crime legislation will stop criminal autobiographies or movies like The Executioner's Song.
Te girlfriend / wife (played by Georgia Lee) is the most dimwitted, annoying simpleton character I have ever seen in a film, a real nagging pest. And yet the lead character puts up with her gibberish ad infinitum. Most annoying indeed.
I forgot that Billy Graham had been around for decades. He sure was charismatic. Of course, a gangster wouldn't care if you had found god, would they? They'd kill you just for looking suspicious. What a rock and a hard place, when someone is holding their life in your hand. I'm glad they saved the big lecture until the end. I can't stand it.
Amazing true story doctors during baby delivery were stunned to hear newborn speak perfect english that his mothers use of a vibrator was painful he then stràightened the doctors tie that was crooked
after all that - we are left with an ad for billie graham ministries...the lord works in film and mysterious ways. not surprising I guess, Georgia lees (alice) husband became a preacher and minister
The Billy Graham segment towards the end of this movie was unhelpful and unscriptural, in that it perverted the true gospel of faith alone in the risen Christ, and not a works based (turn from sin gospel!) God saves wicked sinners not by asking Christ into their hearts, but by believing in His death, burial and resurrection. It's a free gift! Receive it today! Amen and amen!
You shouldnt have to ask forgiveness, hon , for something horrible done to YOU..plus you were only a little innocent child...THEY, are the ones to ask forgivness..if YOU can forgive , it will give you peace. The L- will take from there...G- bless you were ever you are.......
I'm sorry for your pain. :( Jesus knows what pain is. Besides the incredible physical suffering in his last day, he was rejected by almost everyone who should have stepped in to help him. And then he was even rejected by his Father in Heaven. That's when Jesus finally complained: "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" (The Father had to do that because the sins of the world--your sins and mine--were laid upon Jesus at that moment on the cross.) Jesus was rejected so that you could be accepted. He suffered so that you could be healed. He died so that you could live.
Kate Elliott - True, but entertaining. Back then, moralizing was a thing. Hollywood wanted to portray Americans as people who sometimes had a conscious - at least small town American's, not New Yorkers, you know city slickers, though. She sure had a pretty baby.

Thanks a million for this fantastic upload based on the true story of Jim Vaus Jr!
A great movie, the first time I ever seen it.
Nice film with a happy ending😊😍👍
Such excellent movies ... so thanx for the uploads much❤️✌️

Fantastic to see Billy Graham in all his glory and may God Rest His Soul, Praise God!
He was a freemason.
Very interesting, even the 2nd time around ! Thanks for uploading for everyone to enjoy.
EXCELLENT!

And the thousands that lost their money in the name of religion
Absolutely perverse

You must be joking. Prosperity pimp. His son is even worse.

love Kennedy, he also starred in a western series as Steve Donovan , Western Marshal. He could play anything

What a surprise ending!!!
Powerful ending
1:13:25 was that young Billy Graham the preacher himself? I first went to his crusade in 1985 in Uganda Kampala
No, that was not billy graham that you saw bellowing out at an audience. That was an imposter wearing a billy graham mask. I saw billy graham at a 1948 meeting when I was just a bit of a lad and I remember that his eyes were red.
I love movies with a surprise ending. Don't look at any other comments as they will give it away. It was a great ending.
And it is a true story--with names changed.
A surprise ending? Are you kidding? I saw it coming a mile away...
He geht's saved by Billy Graham and Jesus at the end.
Going to my town Library to look for the book. 🍕 movies Rock.🌟
Wow great post tnx !

Georgia Lee had a face like an angel, especially in the beginning with the mailman.
She had the face of a naive idiot which is what her character was.

Bill Williams luckiest man in the world - to have Barbara Hale ( Della Street ) as his wife.
They would NEVER make this movie in Hollywood today.

Ha, I noticed that too. I wonder what the theme was.
I'm liking this sporty wallpaper th-cam.com/video/6uf2Q7nUNw0/w-d-xo.html
I'm sure glad they don't do things like that today
Larkinchance you think. You want to watch some docos on buying short or boilerooms on the stockmarket
Think it was a joke, as in, "sure glad the feds would never wiretap criminals these days"

Oh, NO, of COURSE not! :)

Maybe He was an Undertaker and got paged whenever a new stiff arrived.
I know the wonderful new life that is only found in Christ our Lord !!
This has absolutely NOTHING to do with this movie. Kingly keep your religious comments to yourself
I saw this movie on TV in 1960 when I was 9 years old. Now at 68, God's message is still the same. Un less a man is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. Repent. Confess. Believe. Receive. Thank you, Jesus, for dieting on the cross for my sins.
jesus did indeed ''diet'' on the cross for you, he had great abs!
Gee, what a moral drag his wife is.
Excellent sales psychology -- a) call on the group b) pitch as if to an individual doubter
May be the raying is not that high but the message is clear and educational.
...rating...
GLORY be to JESUS CHRIST what a beautiful ending GOD is always faithful Amen.
He must have been the oldest captain in the Army. He would be better be typecast as her father...or even grandfather. It is creepy watching them kiss.
The everlasting Gospel never changes - "If any man be in Christ he is a new creation...." (2nd Cor. 5 v 17).
Bob hutten, that's religion God is not religious. Religion was created by the fallen angels for multi reasons.
Billy Graham was very powerful
Well that movie kinda lost it. I thought it might have been good.
I couldn’t listen to ANY music that loud for too long before it would start driving me bonkers ......
Same thing for something called ladygagah, or whatever!!!!!!!!
Out-of-the-frying-pan-and-into-the-fire!
Most two year olds are more sophisticated than the leading lady in this movie.
Great Movie, probably a good read to.
However, we will never see books and movies of true crime and what goes on. We will only see what is said in court, which, is rarely the truth. Proceeds of crime legislation will stop criminal autobiographies or movies like The Executioner's Song.
What a pleasant wife.
William whizz What a complicated situation for her.
I also think so!
Now I get it.
it's written all over the bible that war is a sacred thing- God LOVES fighters.
who was counting how many people were in every scene lol hit like
Wow
Would ya look at that! Just look at that! =D
True Crime? The Billy Graham Crusade. Yep, I did skip about an hour of this movie to see the ending.
Come on guys Billy Graham is an elitist not a man of God.
was this the screen debut for the Reverend Billy Graham?
…he forgot to give Marie’s zip-code….
BG, boy oh boy,,,what a salesman.
Verys goods !

Yeah smh, she should have shut up, let him lie to her, and put their family in danger like a good wife
You have to love the apple pie attitude towards religion
If only they knew

He looks old enough to be her father. Why did the men look so old in those days? Even women who are supposed to be their 30s looked in their 60s.

Good until the corny ending.
it's the true story of Jim Vaus
Billy Graham are you fucking kidding me !!!!!!!
thanx. deepky moved by "wiretapped". never saw it, a few secomds notice isl all it takes. great to see him find Christ in the last part.
after all that - we are left with an ad for billie graham ministries...the lord works in film and mysterious ways. not surprising I guess, Georgia lees (alice) husband became a preacher and minister
The Devil made him do it. He should've kept going to those church socials.
Yeah, then he'd be saying God made him do it instead. A nutter is a nutter, either side of that coin. Hail Thor!
Religious horseshit at the end ruins it.
2000 years after Adam and Eve died Did they have a Bible?if not then what?
A good movie until they ruined it with the sermon. Those were not sins, they were crimes.
How did they get Billy Graham for this shtick? How much did they pay him? Is this his screen debut?
Steven Torrey they paid him 30 pieces of silver.

Be aware that the ultimate grifter Graham comes on at 1:12.
Plastic movie at best...full of stereotypes, poor acting and redemption rolled into a corn dog.

The United States needs more moralizing.
Umm, it's set in LA, not exactly a small town. Oddly enough, the real life gangster, a New Yorker, also eventually met Graham through Vaus.
Must have been one hell uv a corndog!
Mr. Labe that was real preaching done by Pastor Graham to bad you're inner eye is not open definitely the two on your face are closed
Too preachy. We should have been warned about the bs content.
@Ben Frank They should have said at the beginning, "This is an inspirational movie." Then I would have been sure to skip it.
