1944 One Mysterious Night - Budd Boetticher VO

My hearing isn't the best - so I am so grateful for subtitles added to these old movie. Thank you to whoever is responsible

Dorothy Malone was the true star of One Mysterious Night! She had a beauty that shone brighter than most of the actresses of her time!

TY for a great Boston Blackie movie, great series of movies with interesting plots & characters. This one centers around a blue diamond.👍😊

Good one! And they surely knew to write cool one liners back then.

Great show, thanks!

Thanks for the crisp picture !!!

The "Blackie" movies are always special for me because of Richard "Dick" Lane who played Inspector Farraday. As a small child in the late 1940s/very early 1950s my maternal grandmother would sneak me off to the televised "rasslin'" matches at the old Long Beach Municipal Auditorium against my parents' wishes. It was there Dick Lane provided the blow-by-blow narrative for the ring action. I remember him vividly up in the press box with his big earphones shouting into his microphone, "whoa Nelly", every time the "rasslers" staged a big move. 'Fond memories!

Ohhhh! Janis Carter and Dot Malone in the same movie 😍🥰💋♥️

Another gem from Sir Bud Boetticher!

Awesome print, thanks.

Love these "Oldies, but Goodies".😊

Inspector Farrady: “We need to get in there” Hotel clerk: “Over my dead body” police Sargent: “don’t be so modest lady you still got some life left in you.” What satire🤭😂🤣😂🤣Great gem—thank you for uploading ❣️

I really enjoyed this movie. Thanks so much for downloading and sharing it on here 😊. I deeply appreciate your work and time put into it

My,that actor was nice looking man🤗

Boetticher, better known as a director of Westerns, pulls off a great comic thriller here, with Chester Morris in good form, Janis Carter a stunning beauty and cracking action throughout. Thanks for sharing

"Over my dead body." "Don't worry, lady; you've still got a lot of life in you."

Good production values for a B-type crime story of WWII years. The characters were polished, the plot was typical copy of comedy-style (Back and forth as "zany" style comedies), but the damsel was never in distress. There were 'teen's style scenarios (the lady protecting the entrance to the women's hotel entrance ( "...never in a thousand years...), the commissioner's hat smashing skits, and Chester Morris' impersonations gave him much enjoyment. It was planned entertainment not requiring the audience to think. A morale riser movie; and that was what was needed after 4 years of war.
