This is, in my opinion, was Bogart's finest role. The character of Hutcherson suited him perfectly and he seemed so natural in the role making it very believable. Superb!
Bogart made so many outstanding films that I find it difficult to chose one that most matches his personality. When I watch Casablanca, I see Rick as the personification of Bogart. When I watch In A Lonley Place, or The Two, Mrs. Carol’s I see those characters as a personification of his personality. It’s a tough choice. He’s made so many great movies. It’s almost impossible to pick the one that is most like him, or that stands out from the rest with the possible exception of the Cane Mutiny.
Having worked on two dailes, a national weekly and having edired an award-winning college daily, I believe this is one of the best films about the newspaper business.
I almost didn't watch this because I'm not a huge fan of Bogart, but glad I did because the story revealed itself to be quite relevant to what's happening in the UK.
I've always thought Ethel was the best actor of the Barrymore clan, she embodies her characters so completely that she doesn't seem to be acting. Have a nice day.
I always watch the movies of 1952 it’s my birth year ❤This movie is one of my favorites and Boggy is my favorite too‼️Thanks for sharing. Keep them coming ❤️🥰😘🤩😇
Humphrey Bogarts speech about anti-monopolies and economic competitiveness was great. But here we are today with the small businesses still getting gobbled up by the mega corporations.
Don't lose sight of who owns and controls all the printed media, TV, etc.. CIA owns Netflix, and the Washington Post, which by the way, is printed at Langley.
Great quality film posted and what a film! Very enjoyable film and would recommend this to others. Good cast of actors in this film as well! Thanks for posting🤗
Director: Richard Brooks Box office: 1.25 million USD (US rentals) Release date: March 14, 1952 (New York) Plot- New York City newspaper "The Day" is in trouble. Even though editor Ed Hutcheson (Humphrey Bogart) has worked hard running the paper, its circulation has been steadily declining. Now the widow (Ethel Barrymore) of the paper's publisher wants to sell the paper, which will most likely mean its end. Hutcheson also worries that his estranged ex-wife is about to remarry. His only hope of saving the paper is to finish his exposé on a dangerous gangster (Martin Gabel) before the sale is made final.
A great movie, and paean to the profession of honestly gathering and publishing news of the world. In case you missed it, I recommend this quote from the barroom wake for the newspaper: "A journalist makes himself the hero of the story, a reporter is only the witness." 😎😎 {Certified Old Curmudgeon}
I truly miss reading the Wapo inthebus as Iwent to work as a young 19 yr old who was awed that I lived in a city where the paper listed the Congressional goings on.
More heavily taxed though. One problem with the rote conversion of 1952 gross income to 2020-Yada gross income using the CPI is that 1952 income taxes were much higher. And 50K would have started brushing up against the higher brackets. So, adjusting for higher taxes it might be worth $400,000 today. By the way, it works the other way pre-1913. Before the income tax, you're keeping more dollars so the CPI conversion actually understates income. This is critical information for time-travellers.
All things must change . Even if the buy up and consolidation of newspapers by the Media Mogul’s never occured it was inevitable that only a few Newspapers exist presently (2024). No one predicted the creation of the internet and wireless technology in 1953 would be newspapers death sentence. If this was a true story Mobster Ranzi would have never been convicted . If he was he wouldn’t spend much time in Prison . Ranzi had to many connections to the connected . 🙈🙉🙊🐒
@disc0pat1 I did not like the storyline or very many of the characters - but the trial at the end, Gary Cooper character's final statement in his trial... should be included in every collection of Founding Fathers' Best Passages - right with Samuel Adams, Patrick Henry, George Washimgton... Ayn Rand... •》 😊😊😊😊😊 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I didn’t appreciate HB until recently. Too much Casablanca, Maltese Falcon and African Queen. Recently watched Beat The Devil with fantastic comedic performances by all. What a gem.
Great film about reporting corruption and how influential the printed word was, and still is. Humphrey Bogart made some great “speeches” about ethics, responsibility and loyalty. It seems this channel decided to include this as of yesterday after DJT was interviewed by the National Black Journalists group. His responses on camera were printed + viewed around the world. He may have lost the election with the words he chose to speak after delaying per the fact-checking requirement. Anyone who doesn’t want to be called out as a liar should not be the leader of the Free World. (The closing music is The Battle Hymn Of The Republic: “The Truth Goes Marching On”)💙🇺🇸🙎🏽♀️🇺🇸💙
Your TDS is showing. Just watch the movie. You could easily say how much disinformation existed then and still exists today, just more of it. Case in point, you assume his comments cost him the election, for what exactly? Pointing out Kamala 's pandering to her audience?
Bogart played the toughest of the tough guys. His characters smoked, drank, picked fights, and always got the girl. Humphrey Bogart was the actor that all the kids looked up to and all the upcoming actors tried to imitate. He brought smoking to an all new level of popularity. All the characters he portrayed, American icons such as Duke Mantee, Sam Spade, Roy Earle, and Rick Blaine, were tough guys that always had a cigarette burning. Never had a cancer stick looked so cool hanging off a lip or dangling between two fingers. But unlike his characters that live on forever in cinema, Bogart’s real life smoking habit led to esophageal cancer and took the life of the cinema tough guy. 🚭
Young Warren Stevens! This guy was busy: hope he made a good living! He and James Whitmore and Ricardo Mantalban must have stayed in shape jogging past each other soundstage to soundstage!
Not one of Bogie's best stories. I didn't buy the mousy wife and the abrupt ending was a disappointment. It's still a good movie, much better than the trash they make now. TY.

Just what I was thinking.
And relevant to what's happening in the U.S. too.
@@EstrafaDC all over the West.
Humphrey Bogart and Spencer Tracey were the 2 greatest actors in history, well, in my humble opinion. Cheers Rosemary Western Australia 73yrs
They and Jimmy Stewart were all great. Never understood the John Wayne thing.
@judibiggerstaff8054 me neither, I don't recall watching any john Wayne movies for more than 5 mins.
I agree Mrs Rosemary
I became a huge Ethel Barrymore fan because of this movie. And every Bogart fan should definitely see it!
I've always thought Ethel was the best actor of the Barrymore clan, she embodies her characters so completely that she doesn't seem to be acting. Have a nice day.
My German ancestors were newspaper men, how wonderful that the love of language, print, letters et cetra is passed on genetically.
Bogart was one of the best no one nowadays like him
Great cast and a great story about a bygone era in journalism. A perfect role for Bogart. Thanks!
I cried when I saw the last issue of the afternoon paper The Dallas Times Herald...we used to get so invested in our papers😢
To Have and Have Not - Bogart and Bacall --- Fabulous!!!
No wonder Bogey is still simply the greatest force of acting we'll ever witness !
Tears fall when i compare yesterdays press to today
Solid Bogart. Great inside look into what the newspaper world was once like Timely..
I always watch the movies of 1952 it’s my birth year ❤This movie is one of my favorites and Boggy is my favorite too‼️Thanks for sharing. Keep them coming ❤️🥰😘🤩😇
I agree so was I we are so lucky!
What a well constructed and scripted movie, with Bogey at his best. Seen it a few times now and still keep coming back to it.
How good are movies of this era.... how good is Humphrey
Though Humphrey Bogart was big star , I watched the movie for Ethel Barrymore and she did not disappoint
She Never Does. Ever Watch Portrait Of Jenny? Great Movie With Joseph Cotton. Great Movie As Well.
@@Kas8588 I watched that movie . She was highly impressive
Humphrey Bogarts speech about anti-monopolies and economic competitiveness was great. But here we are today with the small businesses still getting gobbled up by the mega corporations.

Well done recognizing the artistry of Ed Begley, one of cinema’s truly great character actors.
Best black and white photography I've seen.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful movie with us ❤.
The longer I watch this movie, I realise why Humphrey Bogart was seen as a star.
What a great movie! Can't believe I've never seen it before.
Great quality film posted and what a film! Very enjoyable film and would recommend this to others. Good cast of actors in this film as well! Thanks for posting🤗

Goodness gracious at the well known actors on this movie! 👍
A pity that ALL these great actors are gone and NO ONE is left to carry on. Even the supporting cast outshines our so-called leading actors.
A great movie, and paean to the profession of honestly gathering and publishing news of the world. In case you missed it, I recommend this quote from the barroom wake for the newspaper: "A journalist makes himself the hero of the story, a reporter is only the witness."

I love every flick with Ethyl Barrymore! And I’m starting to be a Bogart fan. Thanks!
Wow Ethel Barrymore.
That Freedom of the Press jeopardy story was 72 years ago. And things have just gone downhill since then 🥴
I truly miss reading the Wapo inthebus as Iwent to work as a young 19 yr old who was awed that I lived in a city where the paper listed the Congressional goings on.
Great dialogue! 💚it!
What a sterling picture!
Just an FYI the $50,000 payment that he was to receive with the sale of the paper would be equivalent to over 1/2 million dollars today

SO good. Thanks.
Opening scene; media hasn’t changed- they’ve just become more unscrupulous and corrupt!
THIS COUNTRY HAS LOST THE HONEST PRESS A LONG TIME AGO. PRETTY SAD WHAT HAS BECOME OF THE COUNTRY I WAS BORN IN.
will never be the same.

I remember this movie it use to play a lit on tmc when it was a great movie channel
It Has Changed Hasn't It, Not Near A Good As Once Was.
So sad, Bogart gone at 57...
One of only a small handful of Vital Truth movies, such as "The Fountainhead" and "The Alamo".
And this one is VITAL in THIS Very Day.
Amen, Amen, Amen!!!

You want a good movie about newspapers, try All The President's Men. And it's based on reality.
One of Bogies best.
I really enjoyed this movie but it ended abruptly without tying up many loose ends. But that's Hollywood.

Bogie and Kim look like father and daughter
Bogart is the only man I’ve seen that can pull off a bow tie.
Good old America. I remember it. Of course I was born in 1950 and that makes the dufference.
We lost character in our actors when they started making PERFECT TEETH
Good movie

Well...
I do not like bogart and elvis and Waney hero of what?
Jesus Christ a commercial every two minutes. Can't even enjoy to movie. Thanks for nothing WNM Production.
Stupid movie 24 minutes in shut off … alcohol and tobacco but mainly because of bad script 👎
While we can agree to disagree on the script, alcohol and tobacco were linked to the newspaper business in the 1950s just as Abbott was to Costello, Lewis was to Martin, and Sears was to Roebuck.
