The crowd scene at 9:47, the newsstand on the left was my Dad's, it originally belonged to his Mother's family they opened it up in 1905 when the subway came there. He was working there at the time, was 17 years old, he remembered them filming. I worked there when I was a teen, we closed it down in 1982.
Great story!
Lovely.
Blessings And Love.
Thanks For Sharing More History. 💮
Merry Christmas 🎄
I liked the (brief) street-scene, showing the electric busses, powered from overhead wires, and the trolley car! I remember these, and even rode on them as a child, only my rides were all in Milwaukee, WI in the 1950's.
Wow! Thanks for sharing! Merry Christmas!
Beautifully filmed. The interior shots in particular! Shadows, lighting, incidental crowd shots .... all so well designed. That was Norbert Brodine's great eye.
At 7:38, for example, the way that door opens and closes...a suit walks down the stairs...nicely done!
I remember visiting DC as a young teen in the early 70's and being so impressed by all the great gov't agencies. It was a more innocent time when most Americans still believed the gov't was working for us.🤔🙄😳
Contrast that with the current fashion of shooting interior shots with movies in color with little to no artificial lighting. Ugh!
and even the 'new technology' involved gettig explained is awesome.
Nolan was under rated...very talented.
I would gladly take Hoover over anyone running things now, with their left wing socialist traitorous leanings. The America in this film would never have accepted left wing anything. They were right. Communism sucks.
One of the most identifiable voices in the business.
Nolan has that voice you just never forget. I can be in the other part of the house and barely hear the TV but that voice is recognizable instantly.
J.Edgar Hoover played himself:in full make-up and a stunning evening gown.
LoL 😂🤣😆
LOL! This was years before they put Martin Luther King under full surveillance.
lmao
The decolletage made him look like a slut!
All that time we had a fruit protecting the country.
This is a very sigificant film, almost like some we were shown in high school history and social studies classes. It is a shame they are no longer shown. I will not give value to what they are taught tday. Excellent film, with a good blending between studio and FBI clips.
You wouldn’t recognize government propaganda if it hit you square in the nose would you.
My first exposure to Mr. Nolan's acting was the tv show Julia... over the years ive watched the Michael Shayne movies and a lot more. Great actor with an impressive resume. 👍👍
He plays the town doctor in the movie Peyton Place. His testimony in the courtroom scene is some of the finest dramatic acting I've ever seen.
He had a great role in "Blues in the Night."
Nolan has a great face for cop roles
Very well said ...
Very well done! I love the old technology. The copy machine was a camera in a box, LOL.
What a wonderful discovery for me to watch thank you for posting
Fella pronounced dead in ambulance, lite up a smoke . Classic !
Yes! Exactly! 😂 @bongofurry
Such a great quality print! Thank you!
Wonderful docunoir, with Lloyd Nolan and Signe Hasso in super form. Thanks for sharing
This may be the first time I've seen the phrase docunoir...but it fits!
Thank you C T for another great movie 🍿
Enjoying all your fabulous choices 🌹🌸
And while the US was helping the USSR fight Germany, the Russians were doing the same to the US as the germans. They also sought to recruit Americans and also worked to bring our great country down, from the inside. Both they and the Chinese did the same thing. It has NOT stopped to this day.
I remember hearing about, at the end of WWII, a German division surrendering to the British and, marching on a parallel route, they were allowed to keep their arms, for a time. Just in case they might need to join forces against the Russians.
You sound soooo RACIST
Can you say .... COVID-19?
@@miker252 Patton wanted to arm all the captured Germans, and send them against Russia.
Actually USA was more flooded with russian spies than with germans by times.
Thanks for sharing.
I've seen this movie a bunch of times and I enjoy it every time I see it !
Interesting, and thoroughly enjoyable...thank you for posting.
I enjoyed every minute, thank you.
Thoroughly enjoyed that! Very dramatic ending indeed.
The guy was dead i don't think the cig smoke bothered him
Thank You for the movie 🎥
Thank you very much for sharing 💙💙💙
A really great flick from Louis De Rochemont, the master of these docu-flicks!
doc- flicks = propaganda.
@@msheart2 propaganda means lying. I saw the movie. Just because it makes our counterintelligence program look good doesn't mean it's a lie or propaganda. The fact that Hoover used it to tout the FBI's successes might aggravate some but that doesn't make it "propaganda."
A film showing that Russia has free elections or that people in concentration camps have free medical care would be propaganda.
Anytime somebody sees anything good from that period about this country, it's deemed propaganda.
WHEN I FIRST SAW THE TITLE I THOUGHT THAT THIS WAS THE JAMES CAGNEY OSS MOVIE.
I WAS SOMEWHAT DISAPPOINTED TO SEE THAT I WAS WRONG, BUT THAT DID NOT STOP ME FROM WATCHING THE WHOLE MOVIE.
THANK YOU!!!!!!
Thank you very much Chris.
It's very well done. I love what would then have been cutting edge technology.
Thank You,Chris!
The film plays fast and loose with the truth. Most of the film is based on the actual history of the Duquesne Spy Ring before the US went to war with Germany. The spy ring was mostly focused on industrial spying in the US, gathering information useful for German operations against the British and spying on US weapons production.
The FBI operations against the spy ring were successful, not because of FBI investigations, but because one of the members of the ring contacted the FBI and confessed.
None of this had anything to do with nuclear weapons or nuclear security.
William Detrich was based on William Sebold. Sebold was a german military veteran of world war one who had become a US citizen just a couple years before the Germans recruited him.
Obviously none of the stuff at the end of the film happened.
The claim that 16,000 spies had been arrested during the war was nonsense. The six men who were executed were a set of Germans dropped into the us during the war by submarine. In that case, the leader of the team immediately went to the FBI and turned himself in. The team (aside from him) was executed and the man who turned himself into the FBI was given a long prison sentence.
The FBI's anti-spying efforts during the war were mostly a failure. The Soviet Union managed to infiltrate the US nuclear weapons programs during the war and gather as much information as they wanted without the FBI detecting anything. Only years after the war did they discover anything about the Soviet spying.
Its a nice looking film though.
16,000 spies... They would have had trouble finding places to hold that many.
If anything the film exaggerated the abilities of German espionage, especially that of the Abwehr. Perhaps to make them more formidable than they really were.
So true. Good observations.
The real story of Oppenheimer and the
"Bomb" were the spy's who gave those secrets to the USSR & Stalin. Hollywood has NEVER told the whole story.
Including the
Rosenberg's who were caught "red" handed with secret recordings ( British) technology.
Which many ( left Wing ideologues) believe was a frame up and sham.
Because the Rosenberg's trials were conducted in secret for Cold war security reasons. British Intelligence pre and post WWII was littered with moles
and 5 th column spy's.
See, Klaus Fuchs Etal etc.
I understand the actual house used in the film, with now only a pathway leading to another dwelling as evidence of its existence, was located at 53 E93rd Street.
K be
Thought this was well made and interesting as not American. Very informative and entertaining as well into the bargain. Good & enjoyable, thanks for posting.
wow thanks for all the history on this old film. much appreciated, 🎥👍👍
ps excellent movie!!
Excellent, thank you.
Wow! The “actual surveillance” video of the comings and goings at the German embassy is better than anything I’ve seen from the ever-present modern CCTV cameras. Too bad we didn’t have them for, say, the Oklahoma City federal building and it’s surroundings as well as the Pentagon on 9/11/01.
Pray for us Saint Timothy, pray for us.
Or Epstien's cell. Or Pelosi's house. There was one video of the NOT a jet that hit the Pentagon though.
@@tarstarkusz Dead people arent praying for you nor can they.
@@gigiis526 Saint Tim is frowning upon us and plotting his next glorious move.
The footage shot from behind the medicine cabinet was made with a Bell & Howell 70DR...a wind-up 16mm camera...and it was particularly noisy...I've used one. They left the winding handle 'open' to show it running. Nice trick.
When the 20th Century Fox fanfare plays the imprimatur of quality film making is assured.
Wasn't this redone in 1988 As the house on Carol Street ?? Thanks for the upload !!
Always interested in this great movie and have seen it before because I used to live on East 91rst St. in the early 1970s when I was single working as a fashion illustrator in mid-town. The Upper East Side, aka "Yorkville", was a predominantly German neighborhood at one point. I probably walked by on East 92nd St which isn't that far from the 92nd St YMCA, the famous Guggenheim Museum of modern art designed by famous American architect Frank Lloyd Wright and the Metropolitan Museum of Art aka the MET! BTW, the German Bund organization held a pro-Nazi parade on East 86th St and a pro-Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden in 1939!
Supported by Joseph Kennedy too.
Yes, I know that and also supported by Nazi sympathizers Prescott Bush and others like Henry Ford, Charles Lindbergh as well! Idiots to say the least!
That is a great piece of history, never knew that, thaks for posting.
YES! THANKS TO OUR CONSTITUTION, WE'RE FREE
TO HAVE YOUR OWN IDEA(L(S)!!!!!!
Ancient history ...
The sequel to this great film-noir entry was “The Street With No Name”..definitely worth watching as well
Just went to it! Thank you. The Comments are The Best. So much is revealed.
I prefer that one because my man Dick Widmark is in it.
@@ricardocantoral7672Some say his performance in that flick was the basis for Tommy Udo in Kiss of Death
Amazing the equipment that was used by the FBI back then.
The FBI equipment was state-of-the-art at the time. And amazingly completely analog. Nothing digital except for the skilled typists.
We sat and watched, amazed, as their files, however they worked, found the fingerprints in less than 5 minutes. Unbelievable back then! Very impressive.
The way she closes the curtain when they go to the secret room😂
Boy, those days are gone forever!
Because...?
@@vernalc2449cameras, listening devices, and the internet.
Thanks for sharing an uplifting, patriotic movie. Love Lloyd Nolan's part. 🇺🇸💙❤
After just seeing Lloyd Nolan in "Lady In The Lake" it's good to see him playing a good guy
"patriotic" = pure propaganda
Patriotic? Propaganda is more like it.
@@billolsen4360 See Llod as the cop who' marries the widow in ''A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.'' He was wonderful in a great film.
Always enjoy Lloyd Nolan
I agree...He seems to have been a fine actor.
Nice pick👍
That is the great theater actress Lydia St. Clair hamming it up in her leather Gestapo coat. Several times she was up for a leading role in a play but was rejected because she wasn't 'pretty' enough. You may notice in the James Bond movie 'From Russia With Love' another fine actress hams it up too - leather coat and all as 'Rosa Klebb. The roles are SO similar it must not be a coincidence.
Great film, thanks.
This is why classified documents are so important.
YOU MEAN LIKE THE ONES THAT BIDEN & HIS CLOSET FRIENDS ARE ALLOWED TO SEE.
Because Trump THOUGHT them so!
@@jeffpope7811 yes, and Hillary wiped her but with them without a thought for their importance. And nobody did a thing. But you cry because they raided Trumps place and found nothing of importance. They were digging and trying and came up with nothing. Just another smoke screen put on by the demons with the moto "get Trump at any cost". Shameful propaganda that only demons lap up.
9:00 is where Prince sampled the street sounds for the song 'Lady Cab Driver' from the album '1999'.
fantastic recap of old tech, awseome
A terrific film...
Great movie I think I now know where the idea where the TV show The Man From UNCLE came from .
The older German spy guy in this movie was the boss of UNCLE.
@@aspenrebel Yes!---Leo G. Carroll played Mr. Waverly on that show!
@@RSEFX God we're old!!
This was one of my late father's favorites.
That´s America as we used to think of back in the ´50ties to the ´70ies. Great movie indeed. Thanks for posting it.
At an hour 4 minutes they were talking about German agents with exception memory talents. This made me think of Alfred Hitchcock's thriller "The 39 Steps". It's possible this movie and that could be based on the same German espionage case.
The 39 steps was a work of fiction that was written by the Scottish author John Buchan.
@@poundshopcicero3089 In the actual work of fiction by Buchan the memory man doesn't exist. The story was entirely changed in the movie.
@@blueyonderbird OH! darn. I love that movie.
@@louiselloyd1523 the movie is better than the book in many ways:) for me at least!
39 Steps was published in 1915 about Spies in Britain
One of my favorites!
I love all the "modern" technology.
The filing systems.
The vacuum tube radios.
The street cars near the Mall.
Wow. We were such a different country then.
Excellent!
Amazing to think that within 5 minutes a set of fingerprints could be identified from 100 million on file. This achieved with no computers. Perhaps, if nothing else, the film gives some idea of the massive manpower the FBI employed at the time.
Look at what is at their fingertips within seconds now, and what they have now done with it??
And if you believe that I've got a propaganda movie that you might like to watch. Oh...you've just watched it !
And lipstick on file. I bet that was a personal interest of Hoover's.
@@frankblangeard8865 ja vol mein heir!
The population was also half what it is today & the FED government wasnt extremely bloated as it is now.
This has got to be one of the smokingest films I've ever, cough, seen.
@ Crabby 303;
you mean all the people smoking cigarettes in the movie ? you ever watch the series Drag Net. remember Sgt Joe Friday played by actor Jack Webb. the series was sponsored by a cigarette company. the smoking was intensive on Dragnet when it switched from a radio show to television. if your addicted to nicotine and some one your watching lights up , it subliminally triggers your desire for a smoke. very effective marketing technique .
@@markbahouth2713 Dragnet was sponsored by a cigarrette company. So was I Love Lucy and the Jack Benny Show. Americans were cigarrette fiends without a doubt.
It's weird to think how common/ popular it really was.
Most excellent informative movie!!!😊
I wonder why the film makers took license with the address. In reality, the place was an apartment on East 54th, Lily Stein's abode.
Now the FBI be sucking
Mr hoover got his gown at Elsa gown shop 92nd street
I've walked passed this place dozens of time on my way to the doctors. I never knew.
Always dug Lloyd Nolan as an an actor. But, this movie & and I'm a old movie buff l never saw. Wasn't taught about this spy ring in school either! Great Movie!
Thanks for posting. It was good to see America as the good guy again. I know the history of the FBI's corruption, but isn't it wonderful to forget that for a minute and just enjoy our nation being good?
U.S.A. has always been the best country to live in. Anyone who says different should stay the hell out. We don't want them. We're already overcrowded with Illegals draining the system, bankrupting the Hospitals & emptying the Food Banks. 🇺🇸 😎👍☕

Thx Chris
It’s interesting how much explanation was required for the general public to understand what was going on…tells you how innocent most people were then. Now you wouldn’t need to explain anything to anyone.
I JUST EVERYTHING ABOUT THOSE DAYS. THE WAY THE PEOPLE DRESSED, THE BUILDINGS, THE CARS, EXCEPT THE SMOKING.
I was told that there were once ash trays on almost every desk at work. It's hard to imagine.
And every drawer had a Hoover supplied issue of womens underwear...for the men as well.
Those were the good old days.
Everywhere....even in hospitals. People just didnt know. No one did.
I remember my doctor smoking during my childhood appointments, and smoking sections on airplanes!
@@kvk1960 yeah, and the smoke would just stop at the edge of the section.
Terrific movie. I wonder if anyone noticed the Police Sergeant in a brief scene..only showed the back of his head and a short line...it is Paul Ford.
One of my favorite Nazi spy films of my youth. That woman in the black leather jacket was quite the villainess and that woman portraying Mr.C, I will never forget those Stacy Adams lace up boots she wore. I had a pair just like the ones she wore. Great historical accounts of the German American Bond and process 97.
Signe Hasso looked like a teenage boy when she was in man’s clothing.
A really good film
1:04:00 - HEY! that's the plot in "The 39 Steps!"
The winter coat of the protagonist on 39 steps, is the most beautiful piece of clothing I've ever seen!! They surely knew how to make clothes and movies back then!!!
@@risseldyrosseldy910 Indeed! That back pleat!!! The fabric also seems way better than what we now have.

I should have been born that era, not now..
@@risseldyrosseldy910 They also used the gallows a lot back then! It seems they like they didn't have much respect for their necks back then!! LOL Surely you made me reconsider what era I would like to live in!! hahaha

Eythe died at only 38, after a rapid descent due to alcoholism.
Rest in paradise, Bill. ✨️
Isn't it rather incredible that the mostly important confirmation took so much time to come from Hamburg ??
While I understand what you are saying, there was a war going on and everyone, especially spies, had to be very careful or risk exposure.
"The FBI" Starring Efrem Zimbalist Jr !!!! (The real Good Ol Days.)
Is that Morey Amsterdam (uncredited) playing the vaudeville agent at about 1:05?
Oh, how things have changed.
At this point in history, I don't believe WWII ever ended
I was thinking, this is back when the FBI could be trusted but, then I remembered that J. Egar Hoover kept files on all of his potential political opponents.
FBI was corrupt from the start.
Why would you have thought the FBI could ever be trusted? And it certainly never has been a friend, then or now, with the left. Particularly under Hoover it was the enforcement arm of American fascism.

classic.
I can't listen to the narrator; the energy his voice produces, but I am interested in this topic.
When the FBI was pro America!
By their actions of the last few months, it shows that they still are.
That was our first mistake trusting their was No turncoat. Given today's reputation I guess we were dooped from day one. For with power comes great responsibility, mankind CAN AND WILL BE COMPRISED. It was like having our own Gestapo we just could not see it because of fear of being over taken. The whole time they played this country and citizens. Gave me a whole new perspective on who is good and who is bad. For all things come to light ...very sad to say the minimum. God bless America and protect those who are real humans and are not compromised.
Breaking News : Trump Indicted in Manhattan. WILL be arrested.
First time I've seen this incredible picture - an absolute masterpiece that I barely decided to play.
Feel like I just went to a honky tonk on a Tuesday night expecting to see a drunken, untalented solo acoustic guitarist, then walked out having just seen a surprise concert by the Rolling Stones.
Holy Smokes - what an absolute gem of a film - marvelous - brilliant !!!
Interesting/informative/entertaining.
Boy how things have changed.
J. Edgar Hoover and Clyde Tolson, who appear at the beginning of the film, were lovers. When Hoover died in 1972, Tolson inherited his estate of US$551,000 ($3.6 million today), moved into his house, and accepted the U.S. flag draped on Hoover's coffin.
Why is that important to this film?
