There will also be a brief discussion of this on next week's ASK EDDIE.

My review of Back to the Wall (1958) on @letterboxd: boxd.it/dUqpxJ Another French noir. Highly recommended! It has been added to my French noir list on Letterbxd as well. @noirhippie.bsky.social @eddiemuller.bsky.social @noirfoundation.bsky.social

Evening viewing recommendation? Watch OUT OF THE PAST (1947) in our Jacques Tourneur collection! 🖤 Everything you want in a film noir you’ll find here: a tenacious detective (Robert Mitchum) spinning his wheels to make good, a drop-dead beauty (Jane Greer) up to no good

Joel Coen cites Robert Altman's The Long Goodbye as a primary influence on their film, in the sense that The Big Lebowski "is just kind of informed by Chandler around the edges". #FilmNoirClub 🗝️ #TheBigLebowski (1998) 🎳

I notice that FeTV is showing PERRY MASON uncut. With commercials, it fills an hour and fifteen minutes time slot. Very nice!

This is the best scene in the whole movie, marking a change in the action. Rick starts to stick his neck out. #Casablanca #TCMParty
