Another unseen gem. I am always on the lookout for noir movies that I haven’t seen and this is one of them. Thanks and keep’em coming!
Yes a Tierney Noir. Good one Trout!
You know something? I saw him in "Reservoir Dogs" long before I was hip to his film history. He was "OG".
@@BrokenTrout great movie as well. My favourite always has been Lady Of Deceit. Can't recall the other English title of the movie but Tierney is a force in that one!
If Lawrence Tierney is in it, it's good.
Heck yes!
If Broderick Crawford in it it better.
Underrated tough guy. He could have and should have made movies with Vancleef, Marvin, Douglas. His acting is spot on and looked at by Hollywood purists as the benchmark. His spot in Reservoir Dogs is why the movie was a hit! The original OG!!
microbe_rz31 There was no list back then!
Outside of acting Lawrence Tierney was a real life tough guy. He took no crap from anybody. People knew when he had a few drinks under his belt to stay away from him because he was always looking for a fight.
He was also a major alcoholic, which eventually cost him leading roles, and nearly his career, since he became known as being too difficult to work with. I've seen him in 3 films, and he played an unlikable, mean thug in each one. Other than nailing the tough guy role and attitude, he didn't have much charisma, and wasn't good-looking either. He always looked like he'd taken one too many punches in the face.
Love you, Tierney. R.I.P. Never saw this before. Thank you, Broken Trout!
This was such a good movie to watch👌👍
Just can't imagine 1950 had so much class👌👍👏👏
It didn't.
@@nedludd7622 Mr. Ludd I hope you are doing good!!🤝 Watching from India & loving it, Sir, my apologies if you have taken an offence on my comments.👍🙏🙏🙂
Tierney played Mr. Henderson, who ran the crooked gambling games on the circus midway in DeMille's THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH. The Ringling circus was known as a Sunday School show, which never carried such games, but DeMille put them there for his villain. Tierney was quite convincing and so was John Kellogg as Harry, who robbed the circus train.
Kill or Be Killed, released April 1950 (USA), filmed in Lisbon, Portugal. Lawrence Tierney as Robert Warren; George Coulouris as Victor Sloma; Marissa O'Brien as Maria Marek; Rudolph Anders as Gregory Marek; Lopes da Silva as Huerta; Veloso Pires as Damiao; Leonor Maia as Nina; João Amaro as Jose; Licinio Sena as Procopio; Helga Liné, Dancer; Mira Lobo, Overseer; Álvaro Benamor (undetermined role).
thanks for the upload Broken Trout. Enjoyable movie with a good story line and Lawrence Tierney playing a likable, compelling to watch character.
ddkoda, I'm broken red snapper and thanks for enjoying the movie.
GOOD MOVIE ,GOOD STORY I LIKE THIS MOVIE AND ENJOYED WATCHING IT LAWRENCE TIERNEY ALWAYS THE GREAT GOOD OR BAD GUY THANK YOU BROKEN TROUT
We both feel the same way about Mr. Tierney. Always glad to hear from you RSC.
Another rarity as someone said. I didn't remember knowing this actor, a mixture between Scott Brady and Gene Kelly in his facial features. Thank you!
Scott Brady and Lawrence Tierney are brothers.
@@christopherbye4318 Well, thank you!
My pleasure Luis. I enjoy getting your take on these things, have a great weekend.
@@christopherbye4318 there is also Edward Tierney who is introduced with Lawrence in the hoodlum 1951
Yes !! He did reassemble them Scott Brady
Thank you for the effort it took for you to do this I am a big fan of Lawrence Tierney
I saw HELGA LINE in the opening credits in a 1950 movie. Helga was a major star in the Sword & Sandal and Euro-Spy films of the 1960s. She made movies for many years. Bravo Helga.
Another Mr. Tierney checking in. Thank you.
I can breathe now. Man, that was good!
Strangely, some of the dialogue is really smart- "If a man lives by a Philosophy, he should be willing to die by it". I remember my Marine father saying something a lot like, "You can't dodge the one with your name on it". Not your typical Jungle movie junk. Tierney!!!
You father was a smart man, looks like you listened to him. Thank him often.
@@sidneyperry7623 Thank you so much! He was a tough man with a high IQ, and spent 1 Saturday a month teaching other Marines how to fix their cars, how to grow any plant, home repairs, etc. I'm very proud of him, and he never gave anyone advice that didn't solve their problems. Semper Fi, Dad!
Toward the end of Lawrence Tierney career he played Elaine's father in the Seinfeld TV series.
Lawrence Tierney's talent makes this well crafted and scripted 'B' film seem more like an 'A' film.
*Dramatic right from the beginning. Lot of suspense. Full view. Like 278.*
I thought I knew my Lawrence Tierney movies but I'll admit that somehow this one got past me. Thanks SO much for this! 👍
You are very welcome Jim. Thanks for the comment.
This was great...thank you
This was great love that Tierney Thank you so much
Doesn't anyone use punctuation anymore?
Thanks Broken trout and keep them coming!
Everytime I come across a film noir I'm expecting Boggie or Lizabeth Scott to come walking across the screen at any moment.
Boggie? Whodat?
Great movie broken trout !
I must humbly agree Robert, Thanks man.
Lawrence......spitting image of his acting brother, Scott Brady.
And their other brother. Edward.
@@guineapig4701 Thanks for that.
Scott Brady could play believable good guys, but Lawrence was wasted in 'good' roles.
Phythons are,nt poisonous and it would of took Black Mamba to kill that quick.😊 Good movie Tierney good as always. Couloris always a great villian .And Gregory always a great villan. And always made a good Nazi!!Moves along at a good clip. Never got boring. First time seeing it. Enjoy the piano work, also.😊
Super find!
Hi Zoey. Thanks for watching it.
@@BrokenTrout most welcome! ☺☺
Ever a chance in a billion we could see The Devil Thumbs a Ride? It isn't even buyable anywhere on DVD or VHS except Spain.
Still under copyright by RKO. it is a shame, maybe someday.
Gr8 movie thanks for uploading❤️❣️
Wearing drape suits in the tropics, when it's 100F and near 100% humidity....
another one hit out of the ball park, great choice for the channel ... thanks for the upload
Hi Richard, I liked this one a lot. (your welcome)
The lost art of B/W cinematography in final moments of film when we see the shadows of the two lovers kissing.
Nice film.
This story is like the fugitive.
I'AM BROKEN RED SNAPPER AND THIS MOVIE WAS PRETTY GOOD.
Typical Hollywood knowledge of animals: a venomous python!
My first thought....but it's to be expected. These guys smell like nazis which adds to the mix of crazy world. "Kill or be killed" was the mantra I was fed doing a tour of duty in Viet Nam....friggin' nuts.
Tarantino put him in reservoir dogs saved Travolta career with pulp fiction
Thanks 😊
The stunning Euro-cult icon favorite, Helga Liné, at 19, dancing at 2:48.
I thought his brother Scott Brady was a better actor, but I liked this movie.
I was just about to post that he looks a lot like Scott Brady, and now I know why. 😁 Scott was a great actor, but Laurence not so good.
"You're Mr. Pink now and always!" Joe Costa (res dogs)
You don’t want to be Mr. Pink! Sit down and shut up.
The steamy jungle awaits!
Wow......and I really mean it....wow!
Nice movie the law of the jungle ruled in this case😎
All that was missing was Quicksand -another myth.
Lou Saban should have that music video played at every home game
Anacondas aren't venomous they're constrictors.
simple and nice story.
Lawrence tierney makes me want to smoke cigarettes so i can be so suave like him.
I can see him behind the mosquito net. Just saying. Not a very good hiding spot.
That band in the first 4 minutes was pretty good. But how did they get the clarinet and trumpet sound from a guitar, bass, piano and drum set?
At 19 minutes, Gregory brought sheet music and she played it without reading it.
I like him in movies, but I think he was scarier in real life.
PAM? I believe I can tell you that you're right about that. Although Tierney admitted in an interview toward the
end of his 53 yr-long career (1947-2000): "I resented the roles they gave me. I just never thought of myself as
a guy who did rotten things." Nevertheless, it was because of trouble he got into --- such as, for example, bar
room brawls -- that he never got a contract with any motion picture studio.
@@petekanter1612 Yes, Remember when he was on Seinfeld, Jerry said he would not have him back because of some issues with him on set.
@@pambrown8697 No, I can't say I recall that. But, then, I was never a fan of Seinfeld
He had a knife he would brandish on the Seinfeld set.
@@petekanter1612 i watched one half of one episode and that was enough for me
He wouldnt be smelling too good after that dip in the Amazon !
I had never heard of Lawrence Tierney til now...great...any kin to Gene ??
Very good film. I like Lawrence Tierney's films.
Marissa O'Brien was lovely and talented.
However, there is no information on her.
She made only two films.
Could someone help?
Very slight story, but the location is interesting.
welcome to ADD channel
George Coulouris is always good.
one real life SOB was LT he was persona non grata at all the studios, lol
Pretty good movie despite being predictable and a little cheesy in parts.
Too many commercials.
Skip them @C_G North my channel is not monetized, its Paramount claiming it.
How many times does Maria say Gregory !!!!
I would've liked to hang out with Mr. Tierney. Fun.
Really good one except for those darn fish .lol
He's Scott Brady's brother !
I thought this was quite entertaining. They could have made the ending much better..and should have.
How did this woman manage to build a palace in the middle of the Amazon jungle?
Government secured mortgage. Freddie Mac.
👍👍👍👍
Reservoir Dogs.
George coulouris was greek
He was British, and had a Greek father. Eagle-Lion was a British company.
The music isn't bad, it is just bad for this film. The actors are ok, but the rest is pretty awful, starting with the plot.
Always the weird "exotic" dance -- in this instance by a bleach blonde.
They are not 6 ft apart
LOL! @mickey bitsko
Lawrence Tierney is Elaine father from Seinfeld. Bet you didn't know that.
@@harryharafias1752 You’re not even the first person to point that out here. Ha ha.
Victor is the pointy headed liberal
