If I were a big time movie producer back then I think I wouldda grabbed onto Diana Dors and featured her in one movie after another. She didn't need any breaking in time. She was instant star material ready for the big time.
@@redblade8160The biggest reason Diana did not get the reception she deserved in Hollywood was the abusive, narcissistic, manipulative asshole that was her first husband. He sabotaged her early Hollywood chances by turning down roles opposite actors like Burt Lancaster, just because he wanted to make the most money possible off her without giving a damn about her actual career. Even when she did go to Hollywood in '56 for RKO Pictures, he still screwed her over by having her turn down the role that eventually got Jayne Mansfield acclaim in The Girl Can't Help It. To say nothing about truly killing her Hollywood career by nearly beating a photographer to death after he, her and a few others were pushed into the pool during a welcome party. And that's on top of the fact he regularly beat the hell out of her and mentally abused her. She would have been a much bigger name today, much more remembrance here in the US as well as England if it wasn't for him.
@@redblade8160 The reason she didn't go down well in America, and why her chances at becoming as big a Hollywood star as others is squarely on her controlling, narcissistic louse of a first husband. He drove her away from Hollywood jobs opposite actors like Burt Lancaster and Tom Ewell (She was offered the role that went to Jayne Mansfield in The Girl Can't Help It), directed her squarely towards acting gigs that didn't really show off her true acting capabilities, and sabotaged her Hollywood career in 1956 by going to town on a photographer who pushed them in a pool at a party, which is what signaled the demise of any chance of being a Hollywood star. All this, when he wasn't constantly cheating on her, slapping her around and using her money as his own personal piggy bank.

@@joeygoodwin9629 Oh, yes, I did hear something like that; it slipped my memory. The story reminds me of some rough piece of dirt from an Al Capone gang that lured her in by promising her the world, but only to bleed her dry and then leave her for dead!
Like Marilyn Monroe in The Asphalt Jungle, the then relatively new - and gorgeous - film star Diana Dors makes quite an impression in her brief appearance! She'd soon graduate to lead roles.
Louis Hayward was an excellent choice for “The Saint.” In fact he was the first to play him, in 1938’s “The Saint in New York.” After that, George Sanders did several films. Hugh Sinclair made two (not very good). Then Hayward returned for this. Roger Moore remains the most popular; hardly surprising after a seven-year series. Ian Ogilvy was also good, in “Return of the Saint.” Unfortunately, we were later subjected to a thoroughly asinine film with Val Kilmer! As this was an independent British production, it was not part of the Hollywood series. (Hayward aged well.) I had always wanted to see it! Thank you for finding this and uploading it.
@thomaschacko6320 I thought that Sean Connery was the first actor to play the role of 'James Bond'. But there was also a 'James Bond' film made in the 40's.
@@redblade8160 You are probably thinking of a TV adaptation of Casino Royale from 1954 starring Barry Nelson as Bond. The first novel wasn't published until 1953.
Hi everyone whenever I watch Simon Templar it reminds me of Roger Moore with his usual sauve acting talent he was excellent too portraying James bond 007 may he rest in peace thanks for uploading this movie 🎬 🎞 🎥 🎦
Absolutely fantastic! So authentic, including 'Anna' the Saint's favourite knife. I am going to check out for more Saint's with Louis Hayward. BTW, the Roger Moore series started much later. Roger Moore carries it off to perfection = I suspect, Roger Moore could have taken Louis as a model to work on...!!! Great movie. The Brits...they do it so well! Thanks MD's Cat for this gem.
Hayward was a good villain in House on the River. He was very good in And Then There Were None. Almost Saint like. But usually, his charms just seemed to lack in other movies. Roger is still the best.
As the description reads "A solid light hearted mystery" This has a great mix of action, romance and intrigue . Well played by all characters. Naomi Chance's crooked little smile and Dianna Dors sultry simmering sex appeal were captivating . Louis Hayward was valiant as always. Thanks for upload MD's 😼
Diana Dors, the British counterpart to American blonde bombshells -- Jayne Mansfield, M. Monroe -- was the youngest student @ LAMDA. She worked on stage & screen earning kudos for her performances in "Yield to the Night," "The Long Haul," "The Unholy Wife" & appeared on numerous TV episodes in the US. One of her 3 husbands was actor/game show host Richard Dawson. Louis Hayward, Ida Lupino's first husband, was born in South Africa, came to the UK where he wanted to act becoming Noel Coward's protege. After arriving in the US with Lupino, he enlistef in the USMC, & was awarded the Bronze Star during the WW II. Some of his best roles include the dual role in "The Man in the Iron Mask," "Ladies in Retirement," (with Lupino), & "The Strange Woman." He was in many swashbuckling movies, but Edgar Ulmer cast him in "Ruthless," a type of "Citizen Kane" melodrama. He worked on TV as well. His smooth, charming facade belied an evil mind who could inflict pain or save a damsel in distress. His films display a versatility of characters; his nuanced performances imbue each character with a realism worthy of Shakespeare's heroes whose inner dramatic tensions enable him to explore the human condition in a variety of costumes & settings.
I was born in 1959 october. Afther that I saw on1966 the Saint with Roger Moore until 1969 all the chapters complete in spanish 😮😊😊❤❤Like Germán saluditos Uruguay
Well now, Major Dolby's Cat, you may be uninterested to know that my cat "Piffie" (Epiphany Verona) slept comfortably on my lap all through this superb RKO Radio Pictures flick. She missed the Jaguar XK-120, the woman who Marilyn Monroe would like to have looked more alike, and the woman who looks/acts like Barbara Stanwyck. Thanks, a million real U.S. $$, for posting.
This is one of Naomi Chance's rare movie appearances - she has a nice style that fits the era to a T. I think this was made in the Barnes area; in some shots you can see Barnes Bridge, or possibly Chiswick Bridge. Thanks for posting!
Louis Hayward was the first Saint. “The Saint in New York” was well-done; and based on one of Leslie Charteris’s best novels. Amazing that there was a 15-year gap between Hayward’s two films!
I turned this on in the '60s to see Diana but apparently they'd cut out all of her scenes to make room for time ... nice to finally see the DD sequences
Kind of fun way to spend an hour. An American saint is a bit of a novelty, but Mr. Hayward carries it off fairly well. BTW I notice that at 1:18 the news article reads "JUDY Fenton Dies..." yet at 49:48 Simon says he "was very fond of JULIE!!"
2:39 This seems to be the Stoke Poges Club where the golf scenes were shot in "Goldfinger" - where Sean Connery (as Agent 007 James Bond) plays Gert Frobe in his role as Auric Goldfinger. This Thamesway sign must have been erected for the purposes of this Saint movie.
Over a dozen actors have played the Saint and date back to 1938. Some of the more notable actors were George Sanders and later his brother Tim Conway, Val Kilmer, and Vincent Price.
To be fair this was the last of Louis Hayward Saint who had last played Simon Templar ten years previous and considered himself too old to return when originally asked.
It's pretty obvious (to me) from his behaviour that C. S. was intended to be the boss, but somehow they chickened out and made it I. C. instead. Not very believable... (Sorry for the initials, I try not to spoil.)
One wonders why the police treated the Saint or the Falcon etc like crap when they were the good guys and WHEN THEY SOLVED ALL YUR CRIMES! Never understood the disrespect? But i love my British good guys😊
Simon Templar - The Saint - was an independent operative, a free spirit. He was never a government agent or licensed private eye. But he was always on the side of right. Even while driving them to distraction, he stood ready to work with Inspector Teal in London, or Inspector Fernack in New York. Police around the world were wary of him because he operated outside their systems, too - especially when he was helping foment revolution! But the major negative point (for them) was Templar’s penchant for helping himself to some of the booty at stake: cash, gold, jewelry, whatever! And to rub it in, he would leave a note with his famous symbol: the stick figure with halo. (Roger Moore did not show the shadier side very much.)
The dialogue given to Louis Hayward to speak in this movie is atrocious. It's like an American who has never been to England, wrote the words for the English man to recite! Apart from that a fairly decent b movie.
The vehicle in the opening shot ~(01:02) is a SS Jaguar 100. It's a British 2-seat sports car built between 1936 and 1939 by SS Cars Ltd. of Coventry, England. Straight 6 motor. 18" wheels.
Try the late 1930’s - Louis Hayward originated the role, the George Sanders, and I think this reprise with Louis Hayward was the last before the Roger Moore version! All delightful viewing!
Dors is far from the star here- she has a small part. I wonder why so many of us (in the US) love old British films, but that's no easier to answer than "why are people Anglophiles?". No idea, but this was an enjoyable change for me. TY!
It's almost predictable these days. Clickbait has become the norm , example here is providing Diana Doors as key figure when she only had one scene. Good movie, though.
Hayward became an American citizen on December 8, 1941` and after that identified himself that way. He was a Brit but born in Johannesburg where his father, a mining engineer, had a job.
Unless sudden rotational force or other acceleration stress occurs, one is NOT zuddenly knocked out. A hard pistol induces severe pain, but it requires a little time for a skull fracture to cause swelling or hematoma damage which damages the brain. And the scene with Diana is contrived. All that 1950s sudden passionate smooching is not how women function in seduction.
The Saint's Girl Friday is the US title for the film, but here in the UK it was released as The Saint's Return (I mentioned in the description the two titles) As anyone who has spent more time than it would take to criticise the content I upload here, YOU KNOW for everyone to see and see for free, they might also see that my channel's content is very much a British affair.
Chief Inspector comes in swaggering, proud wearing knicker-bockers with plaid socks. LOL And just a few years ago they were in style again... but without the tuck or elasticized knees, just hanging like 17th C pirate pants BUT hanging so low you got a full view of a guys underwear or just bare arse AND reminiscent of a toddler walking around when a dirty diaper so full it pulls down🥴

Never heard of her and not as impressed as you, but she was more than adequate in this comedic mystery.

Yes, but he was a much better actor, which Moore himself would admit.

Diana only has a short appearance for a few moments starting at 34:10.
Diana Dors @ 34:10
Dors is far from the star here- she has a small part. I wonder why so many of us (in the US) love old British films, but that's no easier to answer than "why are people Anglophiles?". No idea, but this was an enjoyable change for me. TY!
Templar was forgiven by Brits for his eccentricities and unconventionality because he is an Anglo-American. This is true.
It's almost predictable these days. Clickbait has become the norm , example here is providing Diana Doors as key figure when she only had one scene. Good movie, though.
Suddenly the Saint is Amerian. Who knew?
Hayward became an American citizen on December 8, 1941` and after that identified himself that way. He was a Brit but born in Johannesburg where his father, a mining engineer, had a job.
Dors never had a chance in the US. Her idiot handlers promoted her as the British Marilyn Monroe, which was the kiss of death with American audiences.
Unless sudden rotational force or other acceleration stress occurs, one is NOT zuddenly knocked out.
A hard pistol induces severe pain, but it requires a little time for a skull fracture to cause swelling or hematoma damage which damages the brain.
And the scene with Diana is contrived. All that 1950s sudden passionate smooching is not how women function in seduction.
It is when they’re molls, told what to do by their boss boyfriends
