Never even knew Mickey Rooney had been in a film noir! One of the things I like about this site is the high quality of the downloads. I also like the link that goes straight to a torrent. You wouldn't happen to have The Scarlet Hour (1956)? Best Regards.

I couldnt find proper subtitles to be synchronised...everytime I tried to synchronize them, overall result was poor...This is less known movie and with not too many subtitles options, but please feel free to look on your own


And as of The scarlet hour please contact me on onlyoldmovies[at]hotmail dot com and i will send you torrent link to download
