#BornOnThisDay Hollywood #FilmNoir star Robert Ryan (1909-1973). If there’s anything we learnt from #FilmNoirFest this year was not to hire him as a handyman! #BOTD

I was FINALLY able to watch a film noir for #noirvember tonight! So I went with Alberto Cavalcanti’s They Made me a Fugitive. I recommend! It’s an engaging story with a hateful villain and a meticulous cinematography. Main character is played by the always excellent Trevor Howard. Free on Tubi
