These older movies or black&white movies have better actors and a storyline that is more entertaining than anything DC comics has put out. Our brains can actually follow and enjoy these movies without the surround sound effects or flashy CGi effects, it's relaxing and allows us to calm our thoughts enough to appreciate the artistic value

In the mid-60s I had a grand tour of that office in SF. The armory is a vault room that amounted to a 10-15 foot square box. Walking into that vault the first thing one sees, is nearly floor-to-ceiling Thompson machine gun's pistols on one wall. Rifles of all types on the other

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ / 10. This was an outstanding movie - I'm not even sure it's a movie, I think it may be a detective training film. The only modern investigative technique they didn't use was DNA - produced a bit too early for that!! It wins a 9/10 from me. 24 Feb 2024

Excellent movie! Thank you!

At 0:10, the camera is at 101 N. Brand Blvd, Glendale, CA looking north. The mountains are still there in 2024, but the only building that still exists is 146 N. Brand Blvd. It's on the other side of the street, 2 buildings down from the "Thomas College" sign. It's the light-colored building with the three double windows on the second floor. The double windows are still there in 2024!

I liked this movie very much. It was interesting, entertaining, and had some really good actors. Thanks for bringing this film to us all to enjoy! 🎦

At 49:06, 'Mr. Benish' is played by veteran actor Frank Ferguson, who made hundreds of appearances in TV and films. Among others, he appeared in episodes of 'Gunsmoke'; 'Perry Mason'; 'Bonanza'; 'Cheyenne'; 'The Rifleman'; etc. A much thinner Raymond Burr (who starred as 'Perry Mason') plays 'Krebs'.

Pro tip: The film script is flawed - driving from Los Angeles area (where the fictional Lakeview is located) to San Francisco would not involve a crossing on the Golden Gate Bridge. Possibly the Bay Bridge, but not the GG as shown in the film. The GGB is north of the City.

@@gopcongress Yes, the narrator actually referenced "..the big bay bridge" as the scene shows the bus turning northbound (so away from the City) on to what is actually the GGB. Continuing, in the next several frames, you can see from the POV that the bus is at first travelling north on the GGB, with Alcatraz, Treasure Island and Pier 49 in view, abeam right. Then the bus's reciprocal POV reveals they are travelling back south on the GGB. Then they drive by the Bay Bridge and, finally, the erroneous bridge sequence finishes with the bus rolling down on the City side of the exit ramps off the Bay Bridge - so they did a lot of driving on that bus all over the place - I guess as an excuse to capture some San Fran scenery. One would probably have to have lived or done business there, as I did, to catch this trivia - and it really isn't material to the plot. Ninety nine percent of the viewers wouldn't notice a thing. As to the liklihood of someone coming up from SoCal eventually using the Bay Bridge to enter San Fran, that was probably unlikely back then but actually likely in more contemporary times, assuming one would have elected the I-5 all the way up. I have done that several times driving from LA to San Fran if I wasn't stopping in San Jose or Palo Alto for any reason.... either that or the Dumbarton (sp?)....if I needed to stop at SFO.

Playing villains was British Columbia born Raymond Burr's specialty in any genre especially Noir and Western. Even when he was on the right side of the law like in A Place in the sun he was not very nice either. He would have to wait for the famous TV shows Perry Mason and Ironside to be the good guy.

For atmosphere and mood. It's a graphic lighting style famous for these movies as much as "Technicolor" bright colorful sets, costumes an lighting was for musicals and light comedy. The shadowy lighting in films like this is why they bear the signature called film noir. It's meant to convey a sense of foreboding, menace/danger and dark emotions.

@@Seawizz203 Of course the main reason these films and other dramas of the era were shot in black and white is that it was much cheaper and easier to deal with in production than color. Things were also kept dark and starkly lit, shadowy with maybe even fog or cigarette-smoke -filled atmospheres to add mystery and character to equally stark sets and/or real available locations like warehouses, alleyways, old stairways, waterfront piers etc . Films have to be of that time , acting style, storyline, settings, lighting style AND in black and white in my book to be pure film noir.
