I was out of town on the weekend so missed #TheUndercoverMan. I watched yesterday. I was moved to tears during several scenes. For a "gangster" movie, it sure was full of emotions. I've always liked Glen Ford, but he was excellent. I loved the film. #TheUndercoverMan #NoirAlley #TCMParty
I might have to watch AL CAPONE (1959), THE SCARFACE MOB (1959) followed by THE UNTOUCHABLES (1987) today.

He's THE ACCOUNTANT
Ben Affleck hearing the type of man they need to crack the case. He's either concerned with the matter at hand or wondering where the nearest Dunkin' is.

Can't help but think of Fredo seeing Vito getting gunned down right there.

The many moods of Glenn Ford
"He's dead?!"
"Who cares, did you see the caboose on that chorus girl?!"

Best to close the door after that. Thereβs going to be some family drama.

I hope we're all safe but I have my doubts.

Eddie mentioned in his intro that it was the retelling of the Capone investigation without mentioning his name, hence he's just referred to as Big Fellow.

I love it when repertory theaters run old news reels prior to specific screenings but I would lose my ever-loving mind if I rolled into AMC or Regal and had to sit through modern Fox or CNN ππ€·

I slept through most of the picture this morning, so it'll be all new to me, too. It took me many years of watching Glenn Ford to exorcise the memory of him as the father in "Gentle Ben". #NoirAlley #DarknessAtNoon #TheUndercoverMan

βFrom 1949, a time when the government still put racketeers, crooked businessmen and tax cheaters in jail, here is The Undercover Man.β
Eddie, your cynicism is showing.
