Day 25 Favorite #filmnoir featuring a boat. #TheSeaWolf1941 with #EdwardGRobinson, #IdaLupino, and #JohnGarfield. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge.

Day 24 Favorite #filmnoir poster-- the Polish poster for #SunsetBlvd #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 23 #filmnoir actor who stole every scene they were in... #ClaudeRains. He is always fantastic. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

I’m not usually a big fan of #MickeyRooney, but he’s not getting on my nerves in #TheStrip —which just goes to show you should always stay open minded. #tcmparty

Day 22 Favorite musical performance in a #filmnoir. #RitaHayworth singing "Put the Blame on Mame" in #Gilda. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Happy Birthday #GoldieHawn! #NowWatching #CactusFlower. Hawn is terrific and so is #WalterMatthau. #IngridBergman is also fantastic in this film. She also has beautiful skin! #TCMParty #classicfilm

Day 21 Favorite #filmnoir made outside the US. I'll admit that I haven't seen very many; however, I do want to see more foreign films. I enjoy #TheThirdMan, #NuncaAbrasEsaPuerta, and #PurpleNoon (if that counts as maybe a neo-noir?). #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 20 Favorite gambling scene in a #filmnoir. The entirety of #TheLadyGambles starring #BarbaraStanwyck. Stanwyck excels in depicting all the highs & lows that come with gambling. She is a shell of her former self by the end due to her crippling gambling addiction. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 19 Favorite boxing #filmnoir I love #TheSetUp with #RobertRyan and #AudreyTotter. This is such a great movie! #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 18. Favorite #filmnoir MacGuffin. I have to go with a classic: The Maltese Falcon from #TheMalteseFalcon. It also sets up my favorite scene when #PeterLorre calls #SydneyGreenstreet an imbecile and then starts crying. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 17 Favorite #filmnoir duo: #VeronicaLake and #AlanLadd. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 16 lesser known #filmnoir everyone should see. #Decoy1946; #99RiverStreet1953; #TheNarrowMargin1952; #OddsAgainstTomorrow1959 #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 14 #filmnoir character I'd trust the least with my secrets. Balin from #Gilda. He'd use my secrets to blackmail me; or Al from #Detour simply because he seems like too much of a doofus to keep any secrets. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge.

Day 14. Who is on the #filmnoir Mount Rushmore? Humphrey Bogart Barbara Stanwyck Robert Mitchum Gloria Grahame #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 13 favorite low budget #filmnoir #Detour with my queen, Vera! I also always laugh at Tom Neal saying "Miamah." #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 12 The sexiest #filmnoir #ThePostmanAlwaysRingsTwice with #LanaTurner and #JohnGarfield. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 11 Favorite cocktail or bar scene in a #filmnoir-- Elisha Cook Jr's drum solo in the tiny dive bar in #PhantomLady1944. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

The scene with #GloriaGrahame getting a massage from Martha is so strange. #NowWatching #InaLonelyPlace #Noirvember #filmnoir

Day 10 Favorite #GloriaGrahame #filmnoir. I have to go with #InaLonelyPlace with Gloria and #HumphreyBogart. It's such a fantastic movie and very bleak. I also love that my birthday is on Bogart's rap sheet. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge.

Day 9 favorite #DanDuryea #filmnoir #CrissCross1949 he is truly evil in that one. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 8 Favorite line in #filmnoir #VirginiaMayo 's line, "Money's just paper if you don't spend it!" #WhiteHeat1949 #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 7 Favorite #filmnoir dream sequence. #DarkPassage with the bizarre plastic surgeon and #LaurenBacall's gorgeous face. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 6- Coolest #filmnoir character. Hands down, it is #RobertMitchum in #OutofthePast #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge.

Day 5 #Noirvember a #filmnoir I'd show someone who has never seen one. #TheMalteseFalcon1941 because it features all the noir tropes people are familiar with: detective, femme fatale walking into detective's office with problems, shady characters, etc. Bogart is the quintessential noir detective.

Day 4: #filmnoir ahead of its time. I would state that #Moontide1942 is ahead of its time. It has a very trippy montage sequence at the beginning of the film, depicting star #JeanGabin 's drunken night. The movie also has some very dark sequences and imagery. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Day 3 The #filmnoir that made me a fan. Probably #DoubleIndemnity. I don't think you can go wrong with Stanwyck, MacMurray, and Robinson. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Happy Birthday #BurtLancaster! It’s also #Noirvember, so it’s an evening of Lancaster #filmnoir!

Day 2: Favorite #filmnoir character introduction. It's probably cliche, but Rita Hayworth in "Gilda." #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

Favorite #filmnoir opening scene. #BetteDavis' explosive introduction in #TheLetter1940. #Noirvember #NoirvemberChallenge

The waitress is the MVP of #ShadowofaDoubt. I love her. #tcmparty #classicfilm

Oregon is supposed to get hit with an "atmospheric river" this weekend. In other words, we're getting a lot of rain, more so than the usual PNW rain. The weather people are predicting ~3" of rain this weekend. This all means I'll be spending a lot of time inside and hopefully with #classicmovies!

Cheryl was in an episode of #TheBradyBunch. She played the girl at the amusement park with whom Greg spends half the episode flirting. He eventually puts on a costume to get even closer to her. #TheFury #tcmparty

I like #Suspicion, but I hate that #CaryGrant calls #JoanFontaine "Monkeyface" so many times throughout the film. #TCMparty

This is my second favorite part of #TheBirds. I don’t know why I find Cathy crying in the window so funny. #tcmparty

The hysterical mom in #TheBirds gets her just desserts. She’s the one who ruined Henry Fonda’s life in “The Wrong Man” by misidentifying him. #tcmparty

i0.wp.com/thelastdrive... This is my favorite part. I THINK YOU’RE EVIL! EVIL! #thebirds #tcmparty

This bird used to dislike #TheBirds but on this watch he was laughing at the birds. #TcmParty

On a plane ride home from Austin to Portland with a layover in Phoenix. Looking forward to seeing this guy again.

The guy playing the bassist who talks about the inspiration behind "Wild Summer Nights" played David's dad in 90210. He's the one who gave Donna the champagne, causing her to be drunk at the prom and leading to the "Donna Martin Graduates" fiasco. #TCMParty #EddieandtheCruisers.

Buddy the Bird started singing during the "Sex Farm" scene. I like to think he was singing "Sex Farm" too. #TCMParty #ThisisSpinalTap.

My husband and I learned from Rob Reiner, Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer's new book about Spinal Tap that "Laverne and Shirley" apparently was critical to the formation of Spinal Tap and #ThisisSpinalTap. #TCMParty

I saw Spinal Tap II last month. It wasn't quite as good as the first one, but it was still funny and worth watching. Nigel's amp that goes to 11 has been replaced with him acquiring dozens of effects pedals in case he needs that certain sound while he's playing. #ThisisSpinalTap #TCMParty

The camera work in #ThisisSpinalTap is hilarious. Everyone needs an extreme close-up of Harry Shearer's crotch in red spandex pants. #TCMParty

@tcmtv.bsky.social's programming of fake bands has now inspired my husband to create his own spotlight. When I return from Austin on Friday, we may be devoting our rainy Portland weekend to movies about fake bands. #TCMParty

I'm supposed to be packing for my trip to Austin tomorrow. I have my clothes laid out in a pile; but now I have to watch #ThisisSpinalTap. #TCMParty

I hadn't seen #ThatThingYouDo since it came out in 1996. I think my parents might have rented it from Hollywood Video. I forgot how enjoyable it is and the title track is definitely an earworm. #TCMParty

I’ve heard the waltz playing at #ClaudeRains’ party in #Notorious in another movie. I can’t think of what it is though. For some reason I’m thinking #StageDoor. #tcmparty

The bird decided he wanted to play in his shower during #NoirAlley #NewYorkConfidential #tcmparty

Oh it’s John McGiver, the butterfly collector in search of the pussycat swallowtail on Gilligan’s Island. #tcmparty #TheManchurianCandidate

This fight scene makes me wish #FrankSinatra had made a movie with #BruceLee. #TheManchurianCandidate. #tcmparty
