You sound rich, forget Vivien let's talk about us. shhh a guard is coming. Of course I am kidding . This movie does a great job of portraying what a bad life and bad HOME example can lead to.

Ask our fellow beings in Seattle, we can see how that little social experiment went and is going and going and going. ( p.s I have never been in prison . Knock on shackles).
I love these type of Gangster movies of robbery , crime & mayhem .. No , not that I would go out & do such a thing but I just love to watch them , Such as Dillinger & Bonnie & Clyde .. And guess what ? These are old Classic movies & they are just as good as some of these new movies today ..
When Alvin Karpis was captured he was asked by the press if Ma planned all their heists. His answer was "Ma couldn't plan breakfast" The movie is a hoot though!
“If only you had been a better father.” lmao. I know this is an exaggeration of Ma Barker.. but there could be some truth to it as well. She was a strong willed woman.. even her husbands family said so.
So you believe a criminal. Ya the saying there a sucker born every minute is true. Lol. They might of been protecting Ma ya know, NO one will ever know though because it was to long ago so was she the ring leader? Was she just their cook? We don't know and will never know but funny y'all believe criminals
I saw this before . Good movie ! Nothing like a black and white film to bring back memories when I was younger . Thanks for posting . Just think if they had seatbelts back then , would have been less injuries .
Master acting, a rare classic. Boney M 's 'Ma Baker ' is the best tribute to this movie. It's like today's world.' None leave their mark, each leave their stain '
@@paulanthony5274 Ma Barker was the original name, but the songwriters of “Ma Baker” by Boney M. decided that Baker sounded catchier, so they went with that.
Ma Barker member Alvin karpis wrote his own book called " On the Rock" while he was at Alcatraz prison. I read the book in 1998 when I lived at Sacramento California.
Good depiction of this sadist woman who turn into one of the most dangerous criminals. But Shelley Winters performance in Bloody Mama is more than amazing
She has more balls than most want to be gangsters today lol you do realize it was a different time back then and you can commit more crimes back then without even people knowing you got all these fucking cameras and people willing to snitch back then they called them dirty rats but now they call people snitches lol so the period of time was different if she did all the stupid shit today most likely she won’t be as famous as she was literally today in most likely wouldn’t be ass deadly nether lol 💀 ☠️ ^ but hey u keep thank that mr😌😀
The actual shootout lasted several hours, locals came to watch and actually sat and had picnics while the shootout took place, Fred didn't die outside, he was found in a front bedroom riddled with bullets, possibly by Ma Barker along with his mother, she only had a single bullet wound
@@Gerlad970 No it's about being pernickety about FACTUAL DETAILS, today's knee bending WOKES would have whoopie goldberg play Wyatt Earp in the Gunfight at the O.K Corral, and the protagonists throwing down their guns and ending up kissing each other like it was a GAY ORGY
I have to give Ma Barker credit. She was one smart woman. All the way to the end. I would say she was well above genius. And was as lethal as it comes, as a psychopath. ❤❤❤
1:14-1:46 It's a strange feeling to think that most of those blokes and sheilas are dead now. I'm looking at shadows of people that don't exist anymore. Many of them are talking to me from the grave. Perhaps some of the boys and girls are still alive, but quite old anyway. It is a real miracle that I can see and hear them as they were at that time.
This is a good black and white film. I remember the one kid from my 3 sons. That was a good series. This woman is so ungrateful for what she already has. She has a house and a loving husband. But that isnt enough for her. Her and her sons are all going to wind up dead.
I don't know how historically accurate this film is, but it was definitely an entertaining Blast From The Past....!!! I loved The Fed's comment in the near final scenes, "Let make Swiss cheese out of that house"....!! Right On Amigos = Killers have 'earned' nothing more, and certainly nothing LESS!!!
Alvin Karpis was known as "Creepy Karpis" due to his weird smile, he was born 10/Aug/1907 and died 26/Aug/1979 in Spain, George Kelly Barnes 18/July/1895 - 18/July/1954 was known as Machine Gun Kelly and is reportedly the person who called FBI agents " G-Men", he died in prison on his 59th birthday
You should read the Wikipedia article about Ma Barker. Apparently, she was not at all a criminal, just a cover for the gang as they moved around. I've read that Alvin Karpas remarked: "Ma Barker couldn't organize lunch." (BTW, Karpis was just about the only famous bandit of the public enemy era to actually complete his prison sentence. He spent his remaining year in Portugal as a beachcomber.)
Oops I meant he spent his remaining YEARS in Portugal. (Or Spain, according to Wiki). He died in 1979 after being released from US prison in the early 1960's.
And true to form he was the one that was squeaky clean, and didnt want to do crime. I felt sorry for that brother killed before Ma Barker because he was really trying to stop doing crime, and turn himself in.
There was another film made about this family which starred Don Stroud amongst others.I have heard Ma had nothing to do with her son's lifestyle & that everything was exaggerated.There was a song about them too with the line "...she never could cry,M.m.m.m Ma Baker,but she knew how to die."I learned later the family name was Barker.
I grew up in Southwest Missouri. This story is well-known around here the family are still around here too. I’m friends with descendants from the barkers.
Yo!! Cuz I was like they deserve an emmy just for making it look old as crap alone.... The fact that it was made in 1960 is still late considering it has such a hillbillies feel to it. Good movie though
I can see either Kathy Bates, Rosanne Barr or Stockard Channing playing the role of Ma Barker on the big screen. Let's get Netflix, Amazon or one of the old Hollywood studios to do this by registering a like on this comment. Thanks!!!

@@txmetalhead82xk family is very important I would say I was sold into a family by birth right. I would say that on the day I was able to live on my own I was also establishing a new right of individual travel freed from obligations of such sacrifice
Ma Barker was a nightmare in the daytime! Mean as a Snake! Oops! I apologize to snakes. Now I'm interested in her history, as in what was real, and what was propaganda
When George & Arrie Barker were married, shortly, they started a family & he found what work he could at that time to bring money into the house as he wanted to raise their sons the right way, but Arrie(his wife) had a different way to raise them, she introduced them to a life a crime & to her, the only real crime was getting caught. They started out small like all
now that was a REAL MOVIE, thank you!!!!
Indeed. Incredible movie.
Absolutely an Oscar winning performance. Truly an entertaining movie.
A master performance by Lurene Tuttle. Granny Scarface!! Incredible.
I totally agree. Lurene Tuttle's acting in this movie was outstanding. Theatrical performance doesn't get any better than this.
She played that role splendidly. Like she was the real Ma Barker.
This is a great movie. I could watch this more than once, and I have. Great escape from now.
I bet the actress Lurene Tuttle
enjoyed every minute of that role!
What a gem of a film, brilliant all
round.

Yes and she played it well good movie I duly took note of that lal
This movie on a 1930s case, is from 1960 (not from 1970). Thanks for uploading it 👍
I love these type of Gangster movies of robbery , crime & mayhem .. No , not that I would go out & do such a thing but I just love to watch them , Such as Dillinger & Bonnie & Clyde .. And guess what ? These are old Classic movies & they are just as good as some of these new movies today ..
From our childhood
This is a black & white worth watchin' Ma's character was most entertaining ☺
U right 👍
When Alvin Karpis was captured he was asked by the press if Ma planned all their heists. His answer was "Ma couldn't plan breakfast" The movie is a hoot though!
He taught Charles Manson to play the guitar in prison. They were cellmates. His nickname was "creepy".
“If only you had been a better father.” lmao. I know this is an exaggeration of Ma Barker.. but there could be some truth to it as well. She was a strong willed woman.. even her husbands family said so.
So you believe a criminal. Ya the saying there a sucker born every minute is true. Lol. They might of been protecting Ma ya know, NO one will ever know though because it was to long ago so was she the ring leader? Was she just their cook? We don't know and will never know but funny y'all believe criminals
@@will2472 she was a criminal. Today society if someobe taught their children how to rob and steak we would call them bad parents
And Alvin Karp would never lie to the authorities.
It may have been a propaganda film but I still enjoyed it. Thanks for the upload and sharing it with us. Keep up the great work.
One of, if not the best female performance’s I’ve ever seen.
Laurene as Ma Barker was Perfect..lol
Absolutely perfect
I saw this before . Good movie ! Nothing like a black and white film to bring back memories when I was younger . Thanks for posting . Just think if they had seatbelts back then , would have been less injuries .
Love those old Bank robberies movies.🏚️🏦🗽. Thanks for the movie.
our pleasure. 😄
I’m glad I finally gave old movies a chance
There are lots of great old movies out there. I personally love Sherlock Holmes, (the twelve with Rathbone).
This is a classic.
Watch gone with the wind if you haven’t. It’s my favorite. And cleopatra. They are so good
Watch 'Kansas City Confidential'. One helluva ride!
I like the old movies for the cars - this one was beautifully done .
She really just sat around, read movie magazines and did crossword puzzles. Ma was created by Hoover. Still, I like this film.
She was created by Hoover and the FBI to cover up the fact that they shot and killed an unarmed woman.
Sir Talkalot Dolittle:Not quite Belle Starr material then?
As the boys got older she stayed home and wasn't involved as much
Master acting, a rare classic. Boney M 's 'Ma Baker ' is the best tribute to this movie. It's like today's world.' None leave their mark, each leave their stain '
I actually just listened to that song right before watching this movie.
So is it Baker or Barker?

@@paulanthony5274 You’re welcome. Happy to help.
I can't help but think about a fight between Ma Barker and Norma Bates. Great movie 👍👍
We're clearly in the hands of master storytellers from the top down. Directing, cinematography, script, music and acting all top notch!
Great comeback. " I get around". Ma; " that's right in circles ". Lol

No rply
What code is that? The one they never enforced, is that the one?
@@thomashenebry8269 the censors and local review boards were watching....no cursing in those days.
Academy award winning performance! Easy call.

Stop shakin, and start shooting!! Like that.

That guy getting set on fire is one hell of a way to throw you into a movie. It sticks with you.
Very good directing and excellent camera work.
Good depiction of this sadist woman who turn into one of the most dangerous criminals. But Shelley Winters performance in Bloody Mama is more than amazing
Diapers are a girls best friend
By far my favorite gangster movie❤
Ma Barker didn’t put up with no riffraff. She had more balls then most wannabe gangsters today. 👍🏼🤠
She has more balls than most want to be gangsters today lol you do realize it was a different time back then and you can commit more crimes back then without even people knowing you got all these fucking cameras and people willing to snitch back then they called them dirty rats but now they call people snitches lol so the period of time was different if she did all the stupid shit today most likely she won’t be as famous as she was literally today in most likely wouldn’t be ass deadly nether lol 💀 ☠️ ^ but hey u keep thank that mr😌😀
This is a movie not a documentary.
She's dead. You know that right?
I think your ✋ is on backwards.🤠👍
Note: correct year for this movie is 1960. For the 1970 version see: Bloody Mama starring Shelley Winters and a young Robert de Niro. KAN
Thanks for the tip.
I came here because I thought there is no way this is 1970.
That was the film I was trying to recall with Don Stroud as Hermann.
Great Classic Gangster movie thanks for posting as I just this moment watched it .. 💯% 😉👍

Yes, the one gunshot wound points to her most likely taking her own life.
I have to give Ma Barker credit. She was one smart woman. All the way to the end. I would say she was well above genius. And was as lethal as it comes, as a psychopath. ❤❤❤
No. There’s nothing at all smart in a life of crime…in the end it always destroys you, and those around you. Nothing “smart” about that.
No genius, a quite good comedian,for sure a sociopath...

I don't know when this was made , but they did a great job of recreating the 1930s... She was a black hearted woman.
See
It was made in 1970.
This is the 1960 version
Great movie. Ma was sure a feisty woman no doubt.

Hey, that kid Herman played Robbie on ‘My Three Sons’ in the 1960’s!
Your right. Queen's lady that's a young Don grady before my three sons
And true to form he was the one that was squeaky clean, and didnt want to do crime. I felt sorry for that brother killed before Ma Barker because he was really trying to stop doing crime, and turn himself in.
One of the kids was the son on The Rifleman
When you got nothing you got nothing to lose 😊
nothing left to lose
There was another film made about this family which starred Don Stroud amongst others.I have heard Ma had nothing to do with her son's lifestyle & that everything was exaggerated.There was a song about them too with the line "...she never could cry,M.m.m.m Ma Baker,but she knew how to die."I learned later the family name was Barker.
I believe it was the song by Boney M,
"Ma Baker." Check it out to hear it again 😊
Boney M .by german producer Frank Farian,he did all,the music,lyrics,all he did alone!
Yeah, her role was most likely a myth. When asked about her, Alvin Karpis replied “Ma couldn’t plan breakfast.”
Isn't that Robbie from My Three Son's playing the violin.
Yes, it's the now late Don Grady. 7/2019
😊
Im so such a fan of the rifleman...I mostly adore the relationship between he and his son...he know he can say Pa/Paw lol loving it
I think you’re on the wrong post 🤔
One of a kind woman.
If they make a new movie about the Barker gang; I'd like to see Lynda Carter cast as Ma!
@Coogan Name your drug.
*Overall Rating 7 Stars out of 10 - Excellent Film*
The only decent man Ma ever knew , was treated like a door mat. She wasn't fit to clean his shoes.
A great movie on parenting! Planned parenthood!
Or Selective Baby mamahood
🤣 They ought to show this movie in the lobbies of abortion clinics.
Entertaining film! Thanks for posting.

Even though this movie makes Mrs. Barker out to be ruthless, in reality she was highly moral and only turned to crime when it benefited her.
If criminals didn't think that they would benefit from their crimes, they wouldn't be criminals.
You don’t seem to understand the basics of criminality 😂
I grew up in Southwest Missouri. This story is well-known around here the family are still around here too. I’m friends with descendants from the barkers.
So cool...im friends with Jesse James great gran pappy....and Billy the kids 4th cousin
Wow!!! That this, or something in its mold, ever happened!!! Wow!!! What a mother!!!
"This is the true story of ..." and then they don't even get her name right.
So bad i loved it.
Awesome Movie
If we had more families like Ma Barkers crew the 1% wouldn't have everything.
You're as sick as they were.
I wish she were my mom I bet ID make her proud of me
Yes they would. Cause they would be one of them. The Clinton killers.
I have been a criminal must of my life and never looked back crime dose pay till the day you get court
If you think she's bad you should be my mother in law🤣
She looks like princess Di to my wifee , real talk ! 🤣
Mine must be related
