The cars in this movie! I can actually name just about all of them, including the years they were made! That's when each had its own personality and style... Now they all look alike... An era gone by....... sad.....

I also watched this for the period cars. I felt a pang of regret when they set light to the 54' blue Mercury. Rare to see so many exterior shots in a film of this period (usually sound stages). IMCDb is an excellent source for identifying film and TV cars.

Stephanie DePrima: I totally agree with you. Love looking at the wonderful cars and fashion and interior design. Back when we had style and personality. You should check out "Under the Yum Yum Tree" where Jack Lemmon drives a 1962 Ford Cougar 406 "concept car". It has doors that go up like a Delorean.

I just love this film. Well acted all around with a stellar cast, lead by Victor Mature, Stephen McNally, Richard Egan, Lee Marvin, Ernest Borgnine, to name five. Also, J. Carroll Naish did a good job as one of the robbers. Margaret "Maggie" Hayes did her usual troubled woman portrayal as a promiscuous wife who sees other men, and meets her end in the bank robbery. Virginia Leith (A Kiss Before Dying, The Brain That Wouldn't Die) shined as a nurse who romances the alcoholic Egan character. Thanks for presenting this movie.

Brilliant film. Love the overall feel of human frailty, drama, sleaze. Well done to all actors, writers. xx

@Gabriel Ortiz Thanks for uploading this film. It's not only one film, though, but numerous ones, it seems to me. The open pits reminded me of the respective scenes shot on location in A KISS BEFORE DYING, the bank robbers coming to a small town reminded me of ODDS AGAINST TOMORROW, the window gazer reminded me of IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT, the alienated couple in part reminded me of WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLFE and CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF, and, finally, the way the violence averse Amish man Ernest Borgnine ultimately discards his creed and, as a kind of personified wrath of God, kills the bad one (with a fork, of all instruments!) brought to mind how pacifist Quaker woman Grace Kelly ultimately saves her husband, Gary Cooper, by killing the ambush killer in HIGH NOON.

Yeah, okay, I just mention this because of the beginning. It reminded me.

I've seen this several times over the years and I never get tired of it. I agree with one of the posters below, Richard Fleischer was an underrated director. This was tightly crafted in the way it wove together several plot lines. Kudos also for the gorgeous technicolor and cinematography. It's fun to see Victor Mature, Lee Marvin and Ernest Borgnine all in a film together, each at very different stages in their careers.

Victor Mature...........LOVED HIM AS AN ACTOR!!!!!

A superb plot, gripping study of American morals, exquisite cast many of the co-stars became stars in their own right like Lee Marvin and Ernest Borgnine.

Morals? In the first 20 minutes we have people 'casing' a bank in preparation to rob it, Lee Marvin stomping on a kid's hand before shoving him, a librarian who can't make her interest payments so she steals a purse, two 'best friend' kids fighting for no apparent reason and a sleazeball making moves on another man's wife.

This has become one of my favorite films of the fifties. Richard Fleischer knew how to direct for realism. The stereo sound on this post is terrific! Thanks.

Great movie, and a marvelous snapshot of what America was like during the Eisenhower years.

This was a good watch :) It was really interesting how little some things have changed in sixty+ years and then how much other things have; like near the beginning when the hotel desk manager happily gives out the woman's name and room number to someone who was, at least to her, a complete stranger!

I've seen this twice now. The movie, itself, is quite good, but even if it was not, the wonderful scenery of Bisbee, Arizona makes it worthwhile. Thanks for the upload.

He was scared of horses. COMPLETELY scared, not just a little. I can see why a person could be. This is just quoting something I read, or heard said on TCM, something like that, I did not of course know him, LOL. Everything he's in, I love him right away, and his choices of movies were always great, but strictly as a set of facial features, Victor Mature is one of the funniest-looking people that ever was. I said this once to a Facebook friend and I think she wanted to kill me but first she had to come unfainted and finish struggling with her disbelief that anyone could think that of Victor Mature. I was amazed. I thought it had to be kinda obvious! No? Ok, den, whole rest of the world...

I'm always glad when Victor Mature isn't type cast. He was an excellent actor when given the chance.

Excellent movie. Good acting by everyone. Very interesting nuances in the characters and real life situations. I enjoyed every minute of this movie.

Imagine owning that blue mercury today. That motor sound was mean...

Gee great movie so sad they do not make them like this no more.Thx you poster.

The great sad-eyed Sylvia Sidney as the librarian. Quite a hit in the late-20s and 1930s replacing Clara Bow as a movie star. Most people today would recognize her as Juno, Hell's raspy-voiced secretary. (Sadly, Ms. Sidney died of throat cancer in 1999.)

Thank you for an entertaining movie.

Well written, not a whole lot of time wasted in telling the story. Interesting picture of American society, circa 1955.

I SAW THIS FILM WHEN I WAS 9 YEARS OLD AND, WHAT A DELIGHT TO WZTCH IT AGAIN AS A 75-YEAR OLD MOVIE MINION!!!

This was the last movie Victor Mature made for 20th Century-Fox after many years at the studio. Ironic that his last scene in a Fox movie was in a wheelchair. Probably his best Fox movie was 1947's "Kiss of Death." In that movie, Richard Widmark pushed chair-bound Mildred Dunnock down a flight of steps. Wonder if it was the same chair?

a rarity. a non-urban noir in color.... very good film, fleischer was underrated, some even called him a hack, but the man sure knew where to put the camera. many lesser ''talents'' today get praise for lesser work in pseudo noirs than fleischer ever did making the real stuff back in the 40s/50s. if you like this one try armored truck robbery -1950 and the narrow margin -1952, true noir from a master.

Good Film! I know this town well! I was raised not too far away at Tucson during the 50s so it looked pretty much like it did in the movie! It was really unique to see it just as it was back then! There were no "Amish" in that part of the Country, THAT I REMEMBER! One thing about the Nail he used to take the tape off his eyes....The Amish Always build their own barns, use hand hewn beams (those were not) & use only wooden pegs instead of nails! But then I've always been a stickler for Accurate Details in Movies! Just a little Hobby my husband & I have is pointing out the inaccuracies in Movies! But usually we wait until we've already watched it so we're not distracted during a good part! We also try to guess the model & make of cars, in the movies from that era, too! Some great cars in this one!! Loved the Red T-Bird, she was driving! 🏎️👀

No Amish, but there are their Mennonite cousins throughout Sonora and Coahila, along with the Copper Canyon area, in Northern Mexico. There are, or used to be, some in Southern Arizona. They are Anabaptists with a fairly strict lifestyle very similar to the Amish but they dress more modernly and use some machines. They also live in Pennsylvania near the Amish, though the two groups aren't particularly friendly. The Amish who abandon their traditional ways often transition to be Mennonites, who are far more conservative in lifestyle with odd religious beliefs to most, even religiously observant, Americans. If I remember correctly the real life hero who inspired the film "Hacksaw Ridge" about Okinawa was a Mennonite conscientious objector who volunteered to serve as a combat medic. Lots of the familiar Northern Mexican cheeses are made by Mennonites, who are the major component of the dairy industry there. More people know who the Amish are than Mennonites so this might have been rewritten to avoid long and unnecessary plot exposition.

I was a baby when this film was made, and I witnessed this American era and lifestyle. I can say that yes, once upon a time people were very decent and good hearted. Thay really was how people lived.

Great film. Thanks for the upload.

I was just thinking what a wonderful place the USA - used to be. What an era. I wish I could go back.

Without even seeing it, and only at 3 minutes in I can tell this is a keeper. Into the Watch Later bin!

Probably the best movie showcasing Bisbee that I've seen, especially being able to view it back close to 70 years ago. Funny, the massive house on top of the hill looking up Brewery Gulch 9:33. Wonder when that disappeared?

Just saw it last night at work, lol. I was only half paying attention and thought to myself, that it looked familiar. Then he walks to the bank and I said out loud, "that's bisbee!" I'm a Douglas native. Lol.

Richard Egan was really underrated as an actor just could not reach leading man status ! Very strong cast Proves that there is a Killer in All of Us ESPECIALLY when pushed to either live or Die ! Victor Mature when denied membership in a snobby Country Club because he was actor replied that he "was no Actor had made over a hundred movies that proved It!"

Lee Marvin-Marine corps! Ernest Borgnine-Navy Richard Egan-Army! Judo and Knife fighting instructor! Badass!

A very fine movie, well acted & some tension filled scenes :-)

*He's the kind of guy I dreamed about owning all my life* Wow... you immediately know who Lee Marvin is when he puts his foot on that kid's hand. *She looked awful...like she had never been alive* "Everything you ever thought or planned is just left hanging in mid air" Great line, "You're rich, eligible and you like yourself" Victor Mature was very touching in his scene with his son, "Every dad wants to be a hero to his son" "Linda" looks a lot like Betsey Drake. Beautiful couch Richard Egan is sleeping on. "Not that you aren't free... I mean that in the freest sense of the word". "I was remembering all the things I'm ashamed to remember in the light of day"

There's a lot going on here, highlighted by the robbery.

Lot of star talent in this movie.

I didn't know there were Amish in Arizona. There are many here in PA. I love them, they are very good people.

Wow! Great movie!

Gotta toss in (seeing this film now for the first time) how I got to meet Lee Marvin and Ernest Borgnine in 1972. Just one of those forgettable -- for them, of course -- brushes with celebrity, but unforgettable to the movie fan. I was a kid working the summer at Crater Lake National Park in Oregon. My job was n a little donut and ice cream cone booth. Ernie and his wife came up to me and asked for two cones. Sure as hell I recognized him! I made the cones, triple-dip, best job I could, extra care, and handed them over. He asked "how much?" and I said $1.50. His spouse erupted. WHAT!!?? That is robbery! She was so angry about the cones costing 75 cents each. He was embarrassed and said here, take the buck fifty, no worries, that's fine. But she was adamant. She really chewed me out. Then she turned on him and was mad that he was going to "let me get away with it" (in fairness, she probably meant whoever my boss was, and not me personally). She said we are NOT paying for these. She handed her cone back to me. In the end, he prevailed. He gave me the money and they hustled away. Dang. Maybe 40 minutes later I was in the cafeteria. We ate there with the tourists. I was in the line shoving my tray along and someone at my right elbow, shoving their own tray, asked me "what's good here?" I looked up (yes, up) at Lee Marvin. Larger than life, yo? So I told him what I thought was good. Not much to it but damn, it sure was cool to me. They were taking the afternoon off, as it turned out, with the movie crew filming "Emperor Of The North" somewhere in southern Oregon.

Ernie borgnine playing a goodie!
