Love these old movies and find them relaxing even when they have so called chaotic subjects ,This compared to today and how strange society has become and not for the better .
Many decades ago I stole a package of balloons at the local market and was caught. The store called my mom to come and get me, and my life was changed forever. After the belt spanking, I was restricted for life. Never stole again.
~ Unlike myself, who got busted for stealing some sweets at age 5 coz my friend told me to. I took a break from shoplifting till I stole some lipstick at 14 on the way home from school. The cops took me home in a cop car and escorted me to the front door of my parent's house and much to my mum's (and my) horror went thru my bedroom. I think it was a scare tactic and it worked! I never did it again. I wasn't cut out to be a shoplifter!
When I was like 8 years old, I talked my younger brother into stealing a candy bar, he did, then I told my mom he stole a candy bar and she made him bring it back. The moral of the story is, don't do stupid shit just because someone tells you to.
When I was about 13 years old I was taken to a department store to get photographs for shoplifting in a store I never been to. School mate use my name and no one believed me that I didn’t do it. I never forgotten that
Ha! I bought mine in Penn Station in NYC. They didn't care. FYI - AT Orange Julius, they also called soft drinks "coke", as in "You want a Sprite Coke? Or root beer coke?"
Great stuff! nice high speed chase scene, final fist fight finale and seeing future stars Tony Curtis and Rock Hudson in early roles. Anyone notice how close actor Charles Watts (police lieutenant with walkie talkie) looks in resemblance to actor Hal Smith ( “Otis” from the Andy griffin show)? 😅
Anthony Curtis or "Tony Curtis" plays Pepe -- a man who could prove fatal. Andrea King was good supporting actress who sometimes played leading roles. She started on the stage, moved into movies & TV. She was in the Robert Montgomery directed film noir, "Ride the Pink Horse." Scott Brady was a great character actor in various film genres including some great Noirs, "Port of New York" & "Undertow." His brother was Lawrence Tierney, who portrayed tough guys & mobsters. He was an alcoholic who was arrested for brawling & was stabbed in a bar fight. While filming "Reservoir Dogs," Tierney was arrested while shooting at his nephew when he was in a drunken rage. His behavior prevented many from ever hiring him again. All in all --- not a bad little movie with Mona Freeman playing against type.
@@davidmann4315 yes, I know & most film buffs who are boomers -- as I am -- know that. That's why I didn't think it necessary to tell people that. What is important is that he changed his name AND went from Anthony to Tony.
@@davidmann4315 Don't worry about it. I'm certain that there are some younger viewers who didn't know that. You did a good deed by enlightening the uninformed.
@@pearlbrandwein4731 I'm going out on a limb and of course I could be wrong, and only davidmann knows, but... I think his apology was sarcastic, that you were over the line critiquing his comment, and you should have zipped it.
It's easy to snarkily invent fictitious sequels to this like "I Jaywalked" or "I Littered" or "I Tore the Little 'DO NOT REMOVE UNDER PENALTY OF LAW' Tags Off of Mattresses". But truthfully shoplifting is a major economic problem then and now. (I'm in retail sales, so I know.) The problem is that this is a really overripe crime movie with a very silly chase climax, and one where every character except the heroine speaks like graduates from The James M Cain School of Screenwriting. The one actor who handles it well is Andrea King, who makes an incredibly sexy villainess. Yowza! This dame can pick my pockets anytime! 6/10.
There was a time when teens walked around with transitor radios glued to one ear. Stereo had not come along back then. My brother, John, had the family's radio stuck to his ear and not thinking went into a shop. A store detective hauled him back inside the store as my brother left. Dad, on night duty, was woken and had to go get John. The thing was the battery was taped to the outer casing and the casing itself was cracked or had holes in it. Dad was fuming. He dressed those fools down as only an ex paratrooper sergeant can. 2 days later John and I, his older brother went back to the store. I made a fuss at one end whilst John scarpered with several pounds worth of goods. We sold them off to our mates and made a tidy profit. We showed them.
I just figured out what killed film noir......chain smoking cigarettes! Interesting movie for the topic (stealing/thievery/robbery) and the so-called psychological motivators. Contemporary reality tells me the real motivation is a lack of education and laziness.
Love this movie. Especially Andrea King as the beautiful villain. And Scott Brady always good as the hero. Thanks for sharing this movie here. 👍👍
Welcome. Glad you enjoyed it!

New to the internet? Humor almost never works here.

@@paulelliott3456 I had my governess steal a tin of paté for me. I was a spoiled, fancy child.
Bazooka Joe was my downfall.😐
Another great flick!
Featuring Anthony 'Tony' Curtis as Pepe! And of course the protagonist gets the
almost innocent girl!
Thanks DPB!
Who could say no to a young Tony curtis?
Welcome. Glad you enjoyed it!
Scott Brady movies are always entertaining and enjoyable. The quintessential "good guy."
Roger that. During World War II, Scott Brady served as a naval aviation mechanic overseas on the USS Norton Sound.

Ok ok I confess. I stole multiple copies of penthouse magazine in 1977. I was 15 and they wouldn't sell them to me.
Ha! I bought mine in Penn Station in NYC. They didn't care. FYI - AT Orange Julius, they also called soft drinks "coke", as in "You want a Sprite Coke? Or root beer coke?"
Good movie!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I saw the DVD of this at Dollar Tree. I stole it. (Just kidding.)
Very funny 😂🎉
😊 Good one.
Ha! Thanks for watching.
Great stuff! nice high speed chase scene, final fist fight finale and seeing future stars Tony Curtis and Rock Hudson in early roles. Anyone notice how close actor Charles Watts (police lieutenant with walkie talkie) looks in resemblance to actor Hal Smith ( “Otis” from the Andy griffin show)? 😅
I can see that, almost. Glad you enjoyed it
😃Thank you 😄
Welcome.
I've seen that club in a lot of different movies. The interior and exterior

Add Felony kidnapping and transporting stolen goods across state lines to their charges.
Good point.

No honor amongst thieves, that's for sure.
Roger that. Thanks for watching.
Thanks Donald for obscure entertainment
Welcome. I try, and I appreciate your support.
"I married a shoplifter with a stolen ring" 😂 should be the title😮.

"Tony Curtis" real name was Bernie Schwartz.

So sorry. I didn't mean to repeat something everyone knows already. My apologies. 😉

No cameras in those days, but probably more store detectives.
Good point. Thanks for watching.
Tempted....by the mere glitter of things. Imagine that?!
Beware the "lust of the eyes".
Right?! Thanks for watching
Cute all ties with a relative when she bragged & showed off items she'd stolen for years. Her Mother had sticky fingers I recall...
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Guy warns her and she still tries to walk out?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Silly plot but fun. Ina was hot to trot.
Absolutely! I went out looking for other movies featuring Andrea King (Ina) after watching this.
For her contribution to television, Andrea King received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in February 1960. Thanks for watching!

We sold them off to our mates and made a tidy profit.
We showed them.
