You're such a blast to read, Jack. Yeah, I love classics because you haven't seen most of them. Right! It does make me feel good to introduce people to great movies, though. ;-)

Much as I liked AFTER DARK, Jan and Jack, I would prefer by a tad on my list THE GRIFTERS, which came out at about the same time (also based on a Jim Thompson novel).

Nice work, Jan.

I think so, yes, but need refreshing on what the story is.

Thanks! Haven't seen any of those, but I think that blue dress one is based on a good book.

... great list although it's hard for me to believe that Bound wouldn't make the list of bests. Or even Leave Her to Heaven.

But then that would be my list and not yours. Nice job Jan. :)

I took a women's studies class in college on film noir. We watched: Bound, Lady From Shanghai, Murder My Sweet, Devil in a Blue Dress, and some others. This was all new to me, and although the movies were far from what I might normally watch, the concept of film noir is pretty fascinating. Interesting to read your review!
