Day 3
#NoirvemberChallenge
Favorite
#filmnoir
that made you a fan? The Big Sleep (โ46). Chandlerโs classic, directed by Howard Hawks with Bogie as Marlowe, and that incredible cast captured my heart and reeled me into the dark underbelly of this genre. I love it more every time I watch it.

Favorite
#filmnoir
character intro? Harry Limeโs entrance in The Third Man (1949). From the cat, to the smirk, and vanishing back into darkness. Itโs an iconic reveal and a masterful combination of techniques, suspenseful storytelling, and a perfect performance by Welles.

๐ช Note well: In Eddie Muller's & Ben Mankiewicz's afterword to PSYCHO (1960) The Czar of Noir proclaims that when he saw the film, he knew that it was "The night noir died," i.e., the end of Film Noir proper.

I think that Totter played a femme fatale for most of her career In 1946 she was offered both the roles of Kitty, in THE KILLERS and the lead in LADY IN THE LAKE. Filming schedules for both films overlapped so she turned down THE KILLERS
