What a treat to sit back and watch these great old films with fine acting all round. Beats the absolute trash that's on TV and what's coming out of Hollywood nowadays.

Thanks for this straightforward B film, with not a swear-word to be heard; and all the men wore suits and proper hats. Those were the days. The sound was clear, also. Oh. There was also a happy, romantic ending ; we all wish for that.

Grew up watching these type of movies 50's - 60's and enjoyed them then and still do. Stories that were simple and let you imagine what do didn't see, blood, sex, to name a couple of things. Yes, compared to what is put out today, silly in that way, exercising your imagination is always a good choice.

Surprisingly sophisticated writing for a 1940's film. I love it when the scriptwriter avoids those unnatural conversations between characters to explain plot points. Often, this film just lets the action play out, which feels more natural. I'll be looking for more of Charles G Booths films. I see from IMDB that he even won an Academy Award during his short career.

Carole Landis committed suicide the following year because her married lover, Rex Harrison, wouldn’t divorce his wife and marry her. He wasn’t worth it. Her death didn’t seem to bother him a bit. He eventually did divorce his wife and marry another woman, whom he also cheated on.

... there is nothing more satisfying than watching a classic old movie like this -- "Behind Green Lights". we in INDIA have our own share of classic oldies of "that era". watch 1964 classic, "Baat Ek Raat Ki (A Tale of One Night)" directed by Shankar Mukherjee starring Dev Anand and Waheeda Rehman and one would find a lot of comparative similarity between the two movies, especially where the male protagonist plays "guardian angel" to a "damsel in distress". watch and you will love the Hindi classic too. ...

No, they weren't any better then. But they had to be portrayed as good guys by Hollywood, largely due to restrictions by the Hays Code and other government forces. All except for the 'one bad apple' trope.

Que PENA NO está en castellano.😮😢😎...
So for clarification ---Lawyer Arthur Templeton walks into Walter Bard`s residence without being invited . Arthur sees Walter Bard slumped in a chair with left hand over the heart and deduces immediately that Bard had been poisoned after he sees an empty liquor glass on the floor . ( 46:25 ) ( Medical examiners have an extremely difficult job of finding traces of poison in a body during autopsies but this lawyer can diagnose poisoning within a minute without an autopsy . A heart attack occurs far more frequently than poisoning and would be a reasonable assumption for Bard`s death .) So lawyer Arthur Templeton , carries the body away , puts the body in a car , and shoots the already dead Walter Bard in the chest. This is a serious case of tampering with evidence and this lawyer should be disbarred --or put behind bars. [ " Tampering with evidence can be any action that destroys, alters, conceals, or falsifies any sort of evidence. The definition of evidence is also very broad and includes any object, a document, or any sort of record useful to an investigation or inquiry." ] I like a Happyend ----but the lack of critical thinking here is astounding .

The owner of a newspaper would never insist on ordering the covering up of evidence about a murder just to advance the political career of some prospective city political mayoral candidate. Yet he does so, gleefully and audaciously. He would publicly, anyway, at least stay separate. Stupid plot line.

Always loved the elegance in how they filmed. Not sure if that was the "film-noir look" or just how films were done back in that time. The ladies looking like glamour models. Made to look near "perfect". But unfortunately the 40's (50's-early 70's) Hollywood was very racist. Portraying black people comically (Asians too). Exaggerating how they spoke. Always playing "servant roles". I don't think Black and Asian people had any other type of roles then. Maybe as an attempt to keep these two groups "in their place"? Even in films done in the 60's like Breakfast At Tiffany's--how Japanese where still negatively portrayed as bumbling fools...wearing Kimono's and round j lens frame glasses...as if getting their idea of what a JP person should look like from a racist American comic book. Something you still saw in the classic Hanna-Barbara cartoon The Flintstones....played during the 70's. .. If we can look past that...I guess we can still enjoy these films.

As a child in the 1950’s, I lived in eastern Washington State. Asians, or “Orientals” as we called them, were treated as very intelligent, but perhaps different, perhaps not wholly understood people. Asian men in particular seemed to be like wealthy tourists, usually wearing expensive cameras about their necks, with suits and ties to match their camera case’s colors - usually a kind of yellow-gold or brown, with white shirts, and narrow belts, polished dress leather shoes - typical fashion of the day. They seemed almost universally polite, pleasant, cheerful, and amiable, but having heavy accents which made them difficult to follow in conversation. Indeed, I think many were speaking Japanese. I wish I had encountered more Asians in my sphere of influence, or met some Asian children to become friends with - there were none. How absurd to imagine them all alike, all in a single group, when there must have been so many different individuals, distinct cultures, nations, families and belief structures among the Asian population then. Not knowing certain individuals can bring about a kind of innocent, unintentional madness.
