I am very sorry, I only have the episodes in English and I have no subtitle file in Spanish or any other language.

well, once these shows are older than twenty five years, the whole copyright issues usually go flooting.

[GR160289]

To quote a Wikipedia article about "Public Domain": "In most countries the term for patents is 20 years", but "the expiration of a copyright is more complex than that of a patent". Another article ("List of countries' copyright length") gives more details. In the USA, for eg., the length is roughly 95 years from publication/creation of a work.

do those who upload all of these films, get paid for it? If not why not? They are better than any film we see on the big screen today.

[GR160289]

Actually, those who upload these videos risk having their channels deleted on copyright grounds. I'm grateful this hasn't happened yet.

Yes, the noir films of long ago always included cigarettes. Anne Francis was a real beauty.

[Barry I. Grauman]

In most TV dramas during the '50s, '60s, and early '70s (especially those sustained by tobacco companies), smoking was considered a part of everyday life....

Also filmed at Universal...

It's an interesting period show. I loved looking at Anne Francis. But I didn't find the "drama" gripping or suspenseful.

Thx for posting!

Hi MsKatinka666.

You should try watching British TV shit. It's far more entertaining especially if you can get BBC or ITV Catchup's. Unfortunately I don't think you can in the US.

Anything with Simon Cowell in I avoid like dog crap on the pavement, sorry, sidewalk.

Anne Francis was gorgeous :

[Crazeyfor67]

One of the best intros to a TV show ever. Great art and music set the tone.

[Charles F. Roland]

wasn't she though!

[susanbutler100]

She wasnt thrown from the car and landed anywhere. She got out of the car after the accident. 9:25

This Gary Merrill is a heck of an actor, in my book. There is just something so authentic about the guy.
