  1. Oh my gosh this is what’s happening right now in our beautiful country 😮. We have corruption. And yet people are soooooo blind..

  2. Movie a must watch. LORD help us to wake up & make a difference stansing united. Timely movie very much to the point in this year's election 😢

  3. You go thru miles of reruns of classics Belle St Marys, It's a Wonderful Life etc etc then suddenly upon a seemingly lost absolute albeit forgotten work of art. Every detail script, timing, … handled more in cinematic art form…a rare gem among the heap of war films ..I give it 6.5 out of possible 5 stars

  4. they ( the wicked leaders and merchants of the world) have pulled the wool over our eyes because of the great sins we the people have done and allowed….the beast is rising and the prophesies of the bible will come to pass to bring an end to sin and those who continue in sin and accept sin.
    Plz give us mercy as your set apart people for the sins and blindness.
    🙏🏼🕊🤍🙏🏼🤍🕊🙏🏼

  5. Does You Tube do those English Captions? They're either written by an illiterate in English or some one who just guesses the dialogue get some one intelligent please they are really annoying.

  6. Loved this movie, it really needs to go viral for everyone, specially lawmakers Congress Senate and our Supreme Court and we the people need to watch this as a refresher, to What is going on today and the ending of this movie we need to get back to the old paths and what our constitution was founded upon.!

  7. Conspiracy. Abuse of power. Illegal tapping of phones. Impeachment based on bogus charges.
    Any of this sound familiar to anyone ?
    Today is 5 August '24

  8. one of the most relevant films of all times, for this crazed insanity laden black white club of this nation and its mayhem created here, and for so long.. dragging into their group minorities people least interested in them by force, bullying abuse to what else not

  9. What do you know. An incumbent politician using lawfare to keep his opponent from winning fair and square. Why does that sound familiar in 2024?

  10. This was a most wonderful/powerful, film!!! Seen this recently, but in the b&w version (probably off, of CCC, also). Even MORE wonderful/powerful, in color😁👍. It IS, one of the best drama's, I have ever watched👏!!! Very relevant to what's going on in politics, with the Republican partisanship (and I'm being nice🤨) in Washington, in the past several years. Makes me ambiguous, if this was uploaded purposefully, for that reason🤔⁉️ We need a dose of Frank Morgan's justice, right 'bout now!!! Oh yeah, remember to vote blue🔵, all the way*…………

    *If you want to keep, all our freedoms, that we worked so hard for, in the past 100 years😉!!!

  11. What a wonderful movie. All indians must watch it too! 😢 It doesn't make a difference which country we belong to but somewhere our past has been the same. Our forefathers fought great wars so that we could live freely but we all take these liberties for granted and have really forgotten our past. It's a reminder to each citizen of the democracy.

  12. Wow' what a great movie loved every minute not one boring bit actors were excellent. Nice to see these old movies that my grandmother woyld possibly have seen.
    So much better than the rubbish today.
    Watch Hells Island fabulous movie John Payne.

  13. You can just imagine in those early days of cinema. Sitting there watching these on the big screen. Some of the best times of my youth. Going to the cinema so exciting. Still love going now.

  14. Politics as usual. Things will never change so long as citizens turn a blind eye to corruption and injustice for citizens other than themselves. Twas it ever thus ..

  15. a justice of the supreme court carries a rifle into a courtroom, a barber shop, etc., and no one batted an eye. my how times have changed.
