Thank you Neil for bringing back such lovely memories.. In the 50s when I was a teenager, my mother would take me to the Rex cinema on Sundays, she just loved George Raft, James Cagney films, especially the prison breakouts, also Dillinger and Bonny & Clide, it was an escape from reality moments, all these great films of the times… I now find myself watching the Mafia films, love The Supranos etc … And so many interesting things on YT… Thanks once again Neil..
Gracias maravillosa epoca en donde los actores eran completos, bailarines, cantantes, actores y las peliculas eran encantadoras...extraño esa epoca aunque no vivi en ella.
👋Hi Neil, any chance you can do something on the Spaghetti Westerns we used to watch? Saturday afternoons, Bonanza! and the one with Clint Eastwood, can't remember what it was called.... Memories of bonding time with my dad, that and the horse racing! My granny's thing was the Saturday morning wrestling 🤦, back in the early 70's, it's a bit different nowadays! 😂... 🙃🇬🇧
I think everybody would like The Bowery with Wallace Berry and George Raft..you will see the comedy side of George....He is one of my favorite personalities not for acting but for charisma and character...I believe Paul Muni and Edward G. Robinson were better actors.. Wasn't Manpower also with Edward G. Robinson where they played utility electricians?
You didn't 'do your homework'* *'Raft's brother was 'Bert 'Wingy' Grober' a 'Host' who never 'Hosted' at Caesars Palace from '67 on* ( *Grober was always in the 'pit' watching all the games, and if you watched long enough, you would see two 'torpedos' with him at just the right distance...Bert always paid for a pack of Camels w/a $50 or a C-note to my mother, who worked at the 'Gift Shop' for many years and that means he was basically paying the mortgage on our house every month!* ) *"Mobbed Up?"* *NO...he was the 'real deal' from the old days in 'Hell's Kitchen'* He was the 'Mob'*
