Clancy Street Boys (1943) THE EAST SIDE KIDS

[@robertgsmith5761]

Back in the early 1960s when I was a kid I watched all these movies in New York City where I was born and raised. Now I am 68 and it's a whole different world 🌎 seeing them now. As an adult your perception is way different.

[@slickmic6113]

there's nothing like these guys to cheer me up Billy halop Gabriel Del Leo Gorcey huntz Hall Bernard Pugsley Bobby Jordan Sunshine Sammy Morrison I just love all these guys all their movies I'm only 50 years old but I sure wish I would have met some of them at some point also grew up in a reform school myself but the spirits of these gentlemen will live on forever and their movies

[@shanniworld8310]

Yep this show makes me happy too.

[@dianeodle9421]

[@flyingtigerline]

Bernard Pugsley became a medical doctor working in California's South Bay.

[@bruins4rent213]

Back in 1985 or so I knew Huntz Hall a little living in the L.A. area. He was gracious and funny and shared some memories and a joint. Got an autographed photo later. Peace my friend!

[@jaimecastro1752]

I love the part when the gang goes to recover the saddles and the others are playing riding cowboys with them...:)

[@jamesmason8052]

It’s been along time since I saw mugs and the gang. Thanks 😊

[@davidg6297]

My late dad told me about these films he'd be so proud of me watching them

[@shanniworld8310]

She don't wear no Arab shoes. LMAO Such a fun show. Back when people just laughed at silly lines and no one cried.

[@waderaney7]

Great as usual😉

[@Cornbread-gi6kt]

This movie is incredible in so many historical ways. For one, Bobby Jordan, a black person, name is ahead of many of the other cast members credits at that time. 🤔🙂🙂

[@dwightpowell6673]

His name was Sammy Morrison.

[@eddancer1381]

Some of the actors were called Our Gang and they made movies with John Garfield and Humphrey Bogart. Personally I enjoyed watching this movie. Thanks for the upload Pizza F. Ed

The Beatles where picking people to put on their Sargent Peppers album cover. Every person they asked said YES! Except Leo Gorcey. What a dope.

[@gilbertgiles]

Its ok. He remained true to Muggs. No pay, no play.

[@Cornbread-gi6kt]

Bobby Jordan couldn’t be allowed in the club scene, Leo Gorcey was said to be very very angry about that.🤔

[@criticaltheories5222]

I thought he looked like a stray from some other herd 😆🤪😎💯🥰

[@barneymiller844]

The best shows were the Bowery boys when they were older

[@fergaoneill5323]

Class film

[@michaelwargo5301]

Good stuff

[@puffinvapor4551]

The second shopkeeper was Zorba or some such in “ Cowboy G Men” with Jackie Coogan?

[@poetcomic1]

One of the goofiest plots, rather odd and depressing but the gang always gives their all.

[@jamiesmainchannel4]

Cue marks

[@Cornbread-gi6kt]

Two of their movies were ‘banned’, can you guess what those movies were? One movie was so funny it nearly won an Oscar can you guess which one it was?

[@DavidRice111]

At 54:43, Huntz Hall is not with the gang at the door. At 54:45, he is!

[@curtisclary9911]

You're correct

[@jmen4ever257]

Back in 1962-63,in the ff comic, marvel had the yancy street gang, who would harass the thing. I'd say this is where the name came from.

[@GoldandAppel]

Bingo.

[@harrybradley1196]

[@sheldonhchambliss1385]

Great movie

[@msnovice043]

Mugs has the rest of the gang pose as his siblings to impress his rich uncle from Texas.

[@curtisclary9911]

Why you telling what we all know?

[@rogerneuman7404]

Sounds funny. I'll watch it!

Did any of the ES kids serve in WW2? The seem to have made alot of pictures during the war years!

[@geomanutpb7975]

Offscreen, between 1942 and 1944, cast members Billy Benedict, Morrison, Jordan, Dell, and David Gorcey left the series after being drafted. A few days after receiving his induction notice, Leo Gorcey suffered a near-fatal motorcycle accident and spent almost a year in recovery. His injuries led to a 4-F classification, rendering him unfit for military service.

[@acmarston]

@@geomanutpb7975 Billy Halop also.

[@patironwork17abell5]

Yes skinny of the East side kids served in world war II was missing in action in the Pacific theater.

[@jeffhanson4728]

How come back in 1943 not one of these guys enlisted or were drafted?

[@billyshead1339]

Oh a lot of them served trust that.

[@charlesroberts8242]

Bobbie Jordan eventually joined or was drafted into the Army and served in Europe in the infantry during the war

Hey where is Screwno

Scruno**

[@larrypahl1012]

Stereotyping without profiling and self deprecation! the European immigrant women making fun of the Texan who “can’t speak English” and calling him a “foreigner” it seems almost cheerful instead of hateful. LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS ... SELF

[@Tonithenightowl]

I know Huntz Hall said if Leo had a fight with his wife the night before.... he got hit harder than usual lol Someone got their nose broken by Leo but he didn't say who it was. Didn't sound like an accident but shit happens lol

[@usermikes]

Amelita Ward was married to Leo Gorcey for about 7 years..

[@Tonithenightowl]

Jack, ahh didn't know that. I do know he was married 4 times. He said he should have married a nice Jewish girl. lol His divorces were costly.

[@Tonithenightowl]

@Laura Mary Sampson I guess he wasn't easy to live with OR kept picking the same woman in a diff body. If I'm not wrong he had a drinking issue which always causes problems in marriages. I knew a girl who was the female version of him as a teenager, I shit you not lol She was hysterical, too. :o)

[@Tonithenightowl]

@Laura Mary Sampson Yes, it had to be hard bc unlike most of us he worked with his Dad for many years. I think Leo passed in the late 60's but he certainly wasn't an old man.The booze caught up with him. Had he married a nice Jewish girl ... who knows? I didn't say that he did lol

[@Tonithenightowl]

@Laura Mary Sampson Then you would know... I hope his children said good things about him. I'm sure he was kinda tough, too. How sensitive is up for speculation lol For a comedian he struck me as a no nonsense guy in real life.

Hunts Hall destroyed the Bowery Boys. He was annoying - not funny.

[@trysometenderness7466]

Notice they didn't have the black guy at the restaurant.

[@thomascarroll39]

You mean Token. I know because my parents had me grow up around 98% white people. I understand now what they were doing, a better life. I promised myself I would never put my children through what I went through. It wasn't all bad , but the bad was bad ☹️
