Glenn Ford in HEAVEN WITH A BARBED WIRE FENCE (Full Movie) Richard Conte, Jean Rogers, Ward Bond!

[@preciousprecious6358]

Great actors and all star cast . Ford was a natural and Conti was also great ...Two stars were born .

[@JanesDough855]

Glenn Ford looks like such a kid. What a great movie!

[@ollierobinson4339]

What a great movie. Every movie you have recommended has never been a disappointment ❤

[@AWordonWesterns]

Thanks, Ollie.

[@OdeeOz]

23 Year old Glenn Ford... What a career of his expanded after this movie. Thanks for sharing with us all. 👍👍 10👑

[@bckrypto9837]

Thank you for the wonderful movie. I really enjoyed all the main actors in this one. Jean Rogers, Glen Ford, Richard Conti and Raymond Walburn all did splendid jobs. Watching their friendships develop over an cross country adventure was captivating. Totally different era for sure. Always enjoy looking back through these vignettes of times past. Many thanks to you Rob Word. ❤️ 👍

[@Paladin1873]

Rob, that was a very entertaining hour my wife and I spent watching this delightful movie. All the actors gave wonderful performances. It's hard to believe it's been 85 years. My, how our can-do spirit has changed. I look forward to its return someday. Until then, I'll enjoy past classics and forgotten gems such as this one.

[@RealBigBadJohn]

Many thanks for a Sunday Morning Movie!👍⬆ (Can't beat Glenn Ford!)

[@ericthered760]

Hey Rob- Thanks for posting this ! Wow - Glenn Ford’s and Richard Conte’s first movie. Amazing ! A little bit “Sullivan’s Travels,” a little bit “Wild Boys of the Road,” and a little bit “Emperor of the North.” In answer to your question, and with all due respect to Glenn Ford, I’d say Richard Conte shows the greatest potential here. IMHO, Conte was great in just about everything he did, from this .. to playing his final major role as Barzini in “The Godfather.” Just finished watching Conte (along with Susan Hayward) in Joe Mankiewicz’s “House of Strangers” (1949), which I had never seen before. Brilliant! I loved Glenn in “Gilda,” which of course made Rita Hayworth the superstar she became, noirs like "The Big Heat," and westerns like “3:10 to Yuma;” but if I had to choose between him and Conte in this picture, it would have to be Conte. Love this stuff and AWOW- please let’s have more !

[@AWordonWesterns]

Thanks, Eric. Amazing for both Ford and Conte’s debut. I agree, Conte takes the acting honors.

[@JesseOaks-ef9xn]

I had to laugh when he said he bought 20 acres in Arizona. He was fresh off the turnip truck.

[@Death_Jaw]

I thought it was funny when he said it wasn't fit for a war which is funny because I remember growing up in Arizona and it was quite the battle ground for drugs, guns, and the civil war back in the 1860s.

[@elaineproffitt1032]

I thought it was funny when he was arguing with the cop about lamb chops and wool. I never rea?used what a good comedian Ford was. He is really good in this movie. Studio let him slip through their fingers!

[@sandymackintosh539]

Great film....they were all brilliant in their parts and wonderful to see Glen Ford in his first starring role...he was excellent!!!

[@03itsjustme]

Great little flick. Young Ward Bond playing the toughie!

[@josdesouza]

Awesome film based on a Dalton Trumbo's story. Always to be remembered.

[@WhatstheSizzle]

I really liked this film. I absolutely was blown away by both Glenn & Conti. I can see where they were "naturals" on film. Thoroughly enjoyed this gem.

[@terryhurlburt9113]

Glen Ford did a wonderful job. I so hate that when actors like FORD, get older, they always get the villain part. Your Nutcracker collection rivals my 2 sister's collections. For years I bought them each different ones as I could find them. Thanks for another fun film to eat popcorn and enjoy .

[@debrasmith915]

Right off the bat Glen ford showed his great acting potenial. How could they not see it.

[@susanhill149]

He’s a baby here! I love Glenn Ford. Thank you I’ve never seen this wonderful little film 😊😊

[@diannemiller1895]

Adorable. Loved it❤. He's so young. Hav noticed all his early films, he has such innocence, and sweetness .

[@Down_with_Plutocrats]

This is a really good movie. I never knew that this was only his first/ second movie. It is no wonder that Glenn Ford became a great star.

[@AWordonWesterns]

The camera loved him, DP. He was a natural.

[@garycasterline8489]

Great movie, Glenn Ford is great , like all his movies

[@grahamhill6340]

FORD & CONTE, unknown young guys who were totally unaware of what fame and fortune awaited them... the HOLLYWOOD talent scouts picked some winners here for sure, they had personality and charisma bigtime. Of course writer Dalton Trumbo would go on to bigger, better and some very bad times in his career... as for wannabee Valentino actor turned director Ricardo Cortez, his HOLLYWOOD career wasn't making him rich but his later job on Wall Street did! Good little movie loaded-up with great veteran character actors who saved many a picture and helped along many stars in the making...

[@russbradley8581]

I can tell very easily that Richard conti and Glen Ford are both very talented actors. I would say Richard conti is my favorite. He's very believable and has honed his acting skills before this movie was made! He's top notch!

[@russbradley8581]

Credits say Nicolas conti. Shouldn't it say richard conti?

[@AWordonWesterns]

He changed his name to the more screen friendly "Richard"

[@1LSWilliam]

Arranged marriages are often the best. People start with the basics, like mutual respect, learn to love each other, and then may even fall in ❤️.

[@RitamariaSartori]

well I would never have believed that was Glen Ford and Richard Conti's first film. they were so so professional already. Glad Richard Conti changed is name from Nicolas...only suited Saint Nicolas. You could see what different talent scoutssee when they pick out their future investments...Glen Ford that hardworking ,level headed respectful law-abinding boy next door makeing good of each situation . richard smooth handsome charmer...looking for the quickest and easiest way to get along ducker and diver...with a heart of Gold , good values of friendship and comaraderie. which came to the fore in so so many varied roles. Loved every minute of this wonderful film.

[@Bossladyone2]

A word of thanks for this Western Treasure.

[@Kidd-b7v]

Thank you I really enjoyed this wonderful movie,

[@pilarmartin5051]

Love Glen Ford and so too Richard Conte both great actors

[@daytonajoe281]

I loved this movie. Happy ending and all the nuances of the script, soundtrack, production, editing and all the cinematic nuances as well. It was a dream team of crew who did this

[@daytonajoe281]

Thank you WOW! This is a delightful movie. Each actor displayed stardom. It was lightning in a bottle.

[@AWordonWesterns]

Thanks, Joe. It sure captures an era. Lots to recommend it.

[@revvyhevvy]

I love the speech patterns of Ms Rogers! Quite distinctive! Legend has it that my step-dad(RIP) had 'hopped a few trains' before settling in California, Steinbeck country, Salinas to be precise! Trumbo et al was a great writer!

[@hiramnoone]

It was likely figured that Dale Arden was the only one movie goers would recognize among a cast of newcomers in this little second feature anyway. Hence the billing. Or maybe they were going by seniority. Saw this film on late-night telly when I was a kid and was impressed with how hobo Conte made soup out of a cup of hot water. I of course as a kid who was used to putting ketchup on everything anyway, had tuh try it myself, and as I recall thought it wasn't half bad.

[@joemonteleonezollo4967]

This movie had it all. Captured the time and people that lived. A true great American movie 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿. 1939 considering what was about to happen historically. This movie was right on time. Ford made his mark, excellent cast. Very enjoyable!

[@mikenixon2401]

Very good film. I always enjoy seeing where people got their start. Thank you for posting.

[@AWordonWesterns]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@jenniecormie6145]

Loved this film. What a gem! Glen Ford was impeccable, as was the rest of the main line-up.

[@arlitabeard7693]

This was a wonderful movie thank you

[@MC-de6tf]

Best old movie (and good actors) that I have seen in a while, thanks.

[@douglax2248]

Thanks Rob for these movies. And your other content.

[@patrickmeaney6743]

This is a great site!-p

[@mistervacation23]

Now you're going to Glenn Ford it all over town

[@TheArby13]

I can't remember how long ago it was when I first saw this movie but it was a LOOOOOONNNNG! time ago.

[@sylviaroberts8103]

Thoroughly enjoyed the film. Thank you.

[@johnnowakowski4062]

What a sweet movie!

[@SouthernCeltMS]

Great movie. The kind I used to see in my small town theater that didn't get the big productions. You should have included the fact that one of our favorite Western actors, Ward Bond was in this.

[@royboy9361]

Gimme Glen Ford any time! Many thanks. Lamb chops at 45 cents a pound, I’ll take some of that too. Who’s had more supporting roles than Ward Bond? I’ll wait.

[@vickibwarren9722]

I very much enjoyed the movie. Glenn Ford was great in it.!

[@kofegrl]

What a cute movie, I can’t believe I’ve never seen this!

[@yevonnehorn6196]

Good movie. Thank you for sharing this with me.

[@janiceharley9051]

Glenford did good for his first movie who would have thought it was his first movie always a good actor from the beginning it was delightful this movie

[@Charlotte-bn4gp]

Great movie and always a fan of Glen Ford. Was thinking how many miles people would travel for work back then...and nowadays😢

[@sandyfreyman3501]

Second time I've seen this one. It makes the greatest impression.

[@arieswaters]

Glenn Ford born in Canada 1916

[@mikebuleti8548]

Fantastic Rob !

[@anthonyhudson8383]

Great entertainment!

[@greekveteran2715]

Conte and Ford kids? Man, I have to watch this!!!

[@noors376]

Great movie with a great cast. Glad they rose to stardom ❤

[@markhuebner7580]

Awesome!

[@virginiawilkinson5038]

Excellent thank you

[@michaelrider3292]

Excellent movie ..👍😉✨😉

[@AWordonWesterns]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks.

[@frederickcombs8661]

Glenn Ford is always masculine, handsome and likeable in his movies.

[@parkcrashers5922]

Good job. Great pic. ❤

[@AWordonWesterns]

Thanks! 😊

[@claudesutton6205]

I think jean Rodgers and Glen Ford movies was very good

[@pedrojulio5889]

Going for my 2nd time watching it. EVERYONE was superb in this movie. Glenn was a natural!!. What a story. My dad was on Tinian Island B-29 Navigator so I grew up on black and white. I DO NOT LIKE COLORIZED FILM.

[@rosstransmeier9792]

Dalton Trumbo wrote another great story.

[@claudiorobertosantos6984]

Adorei o Glenn e o filme. Muito bom

[@STEFAN23744]

So dapper sir

[@idgie1965]

Very sweet movie ❤ Thank you for sharing this! New sub, I have much to enjoy here!

[@dalhaybron7063]

Thanks Rob.. Glenn Ford was recuited by Wild Bill Donovan to be an OSS agent along with Sterling Hayden, Eddie Albert & William Hooper because Actors are trained to lie convincigly. Hopper join the Navy Underwater & Sabotage Team (Fogmen / Seals).. After WW II Glenn Ford worked for Navy Intelligence till the 1069' & took all his secrets to the Grave like William Hopper did. I'd love to see all them Files deClassfied..

[@ronneysmith]

Great acting mister Glenn

[@GregDaniels-e7b]

I must say that Richard Conte was the better actor, but Glenn Ford certainly improved over the years. Enjoyed the movie.

[@larrywhited3070]

Question @ minute 17:00 "Say, how big is that ranch of yours?" Answer: "20 acres. I don't know exactly how big that is, but I imagine it's about a mile square." Ah, the naive. A square mile has 640 acres.

[@ronneysmith]

Great actor😊

[@rotax636nut5]

Loved it!

[@codyhilton1750]

Funny, isn't it? She was going to be deported as an illegal alien. Good old 1939. His house looked like Green Acres and Mr Haney in the truck. Glenn Ford is one of my all times favorite.

[@jamesblacketter9854]

That was a gud take of hobo life, ward bond was a young buck to, gud characters, gud show for Ford's first movie, thank you for the gud show WOW

[@少川靖男]

nice story !! very nice story....didn't even need to try.

[@Rafael-oi6dj]

Excellent movie, funny to the end

[@ruffy99020011]

I love Glen Ford

[@monicaclark9581]

Glad the story writers had Jean end up with Glen rather than the somber and troubled character of Richard Conte. A nice happy ending

[@shelleymcafee8197]

That was good as far as it went, but I wish that the story had carried-on further; I’d like to know what happened to Everyone.😉 Thank-You for this!!

[@saulchapnick1566]

Fascinating provenance. The roads of John Garfield, Dalton Tremblay, John Garfield, Elia Khazan, Glen Ford and Richard Conte all crisscrossed. Khazan snitched during HUAC. Garfield suffered as a result of HUAC and tragically died young. Dalton was blacklisted for years. Ford played in the A lackluster movies the fifties were known for. Conte was a gritty B film noire actor in the fifties. His acting style was always the same, never changed.

[@glenrobinson916]

Ha, ha, very good!

[@praktam]

I enjoyed this movie.

[@jek9911]

This 60 min film is a good example of simple story telling - a skill lost since the Twilight Zone writers of the 1960s, I imagine. The writing in this movie was not sophisticated and the ending was clumsy but overall it was a nice hour. Better than 3 hours of space aliens, dragons and nonstop superman fighting. I always like Ford but in this movie Conte gave a smoother performance. Ford's character was stiff or lacked diminsion. Can't tell if it was his acting or the script. Probably both.

[@loisreed8291]

Ah, the cream always rises to the top.

[@kathleenpopata9718]

Tops its the funniest thing a real freshman 20 Acres in Arizona 😅 it gets more interesting on the journey Soaring to great heights superbly made He was made for movies first time wotch and dare to say I'd watch his movies they are goodies 🤣

[@1LSWilliam]

Richard Conte far outshines Glenn Ford in their mutual film debut. But Conte was limited by his racial or ethnic profile, even despite his amazing ability as a dancer, so that he was far more versatile than Ford.

[@cherjohnson5807]

Nice👍🏽

[@AWordonWesterns]

Thanks ✌

[@classicac16]

I love it..💕💕💕🫣🤭🥰🥹

[@carlreed6186]

For a second I thought I was watching the Sheepman.

[@AWordonWesterns]

Ha! Glenn was top-billed over Shirley in that fun fest.

[@BigBand1942]

Outstanding Movie.....I will even watch it Twice or More! The buckshot victim was higher billing because he was Jewish.....they did that back then (or maybe still do)??? Almost as good as the Prince and the pauper (the 2 twin kids and A. Flynn)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@alexciocca4451]

Glenn Ford Mr naturally cool he was cool before cool even in his first movie that even beats Mr Natural form the 1960 s

[@jek9911]

4:14 what's the name of the actor who questions Ford?

[@AWordonWesterns]

Paul Hurst. Was in several hundred movies and even sidekick to Monte Hale at Republic for a few films.

[@ironcanary6806]

always liked this movie. glen is a little stiff and unsure , but still great, has not perfected his persona yet.

[@bobbysnow5478]

Thanks for the movie! No big deal! My last career I was paid to be a professional story teller…. 14 years…I couldn’t act my way out of a ziplock bag! Glen Ford is the real deal! At any age!

[@martybarton2470]

hee did a good job.

[@mayranoguera838]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@nikkipage9132]

I wonder what happened to poor Tony.

[@teresadelacanal1065]

Ford looked like John Stamos.

[@MykalMalloy]

A mile square is 640 acres!

[@1Jonboat]

Quick! Get the bucket out of the rain before it gets ruined!

[@grahamellis1505]

He looks like Dagwood Bumstead

[@teresadelacanal1065]

She changed her accent, I think, after they got married. 😅😅😅😅
