11/25/47: Out of the Past!!! Peak #Noirvember w/Mr. Robert Mitchum, Jane Greer, Kirk Douglas [D Tourneur/DP Musuraca] More: @szacharek.bsky.social: time.com/collection/1... @tnyfrontrow.bsky.social: www.newyorker.com/goings-on-ab... @splicedpersonality.bsky.social: crookedmarquee.com/classic-corn...

Day 25 #NoirvemberChallenge Favorite #FilmNoir Featuring a Boat THE BREAKING POINT, where the malaise of impending middle age meets the disillusion of the postwar era. Ernest Hemingway called it the best adaptation of any of his novels; John Garfield called it his best performance. Can’t argue.

Day 22 #NoirvemberChallenge Fav #filmnoir musical performance. Submitted by @rmrfromgso. Ida Lupino in Roadhouse (1948). All hail the badass. She sings hauntingly, raspy, & with perfect smoky depression the classic Johnny Mercer song "One for My Baby (and One More for the Road)".

Day 20 #NoirvemberChallenge Favorite Gambling Scene in a #FilmNoir The rigged poker game in DARK CITY (1950). Director William Dieterle’s canted angles, telling two-shots and smoke-filled room – revealing some hands but not others – creates a card game as tense as any I’ve seen onscreen.

@ladykdesigns.bsky.social #Noirvemberchallenge Nov 20 Fav gambling scene is a #Filmnoir Vivian gambling & winning at the roulette table ‘The Big Sleep’ 1946 The scene uses the game of chance as a subtle metaphor & risk the characters are taking

#NoirvemberChallenge Day 20 Favorite Gambling Scene -- Bob in the casino at the end of Jean-Pierre Melville's Bob le Flambeur. Everything goes wrong but everything goes right. Beside I childishly love to hear people say "Bob" with a French accent

Day 20 #NoirvemberChallenge Favorite #filmnoir Gambling Scene? 🎲 There are quite a few, and for me these stand out: The opening shots of Gilda (‘46), at Eddie Mars’ in The Big Sleep (‘46), and finding Pete in Kansas City Confidential (’52).

#NoirvemberChallenge Day 20: Favorite Gambling Scene in a #FilmNoir: Gilda (1946) "Lucky at cards, unlucky at love. It's a good thing I'm not, isn't it?" #Noirista #FilmSky

#NoirvemberChallenge Favorite #FilmNoir Gambling Scene Lawrence Tierney and Claire Trevor in Born to Kill '47 #Noirvember

Phyllis Hochen (Diana Dors) has been having an affair and sees an opportunity to get rid of her husband, a wealthy vintner (Rod Steiger). She'll kill him and claim it was a case of mistaken identity. But the plan backfires in unexpected ways. "The Unholy Wife" (1957) #filmnoir

#NoirvemberChallenge Favorite bar or cocktail in a #FilmNoir The bar in "While the City Sleeps" (1956) is a key setting for the film's newspaper and media world setting, where the pressure to find the "Lipstick Killer" is intense. Plus Dana Andrews and Ida Lupino...

#NoirvemberChallenge Day 11: Favorite Bar Scene/Cocktail in a #FilmNoir - The Blue Gardenia (1953) As a tiki-phile, this scene is my absolute favorite. The bar furnishings! Nat King Cole on keys! The drink: Polynesian Pearl Diver! #Noirista #FilmSky

. During the Summer of 2023, an idea came to me about the possibility of Hippie Film Noir films, so I started a Letterboxd list that currently has 78 films; surely, there are more - I've only seen 43 out of the 78: “☮️ Hippie Noir ☮️ - Film Noir & Neo-Noir” boxd.it/mV0g2 .

#Svengoolie Trivia #imdb Gene Hackman ad-libbed The Blindman's parting line "I was gonna make espresso." The scene immediately fades to black because the crew erupted into fits of laughter. Hackman was unable to repeat line without laughing with the rest of the crew, so the first take was used.

Hell, yeah!!!
