For a closer view of Dark Passage "then and now," along with many other SF noirs, check out this great site.

The entire landscape of noir is well littered with stories of thugs, mugs, lugs, dames and dolls all on the run from the long arm of the law, revenge or some other motive. Painting with a broad brush...

Steve,

Lets start planing for next year and "get the old group together" again at John's Grill.

Victor Mature, a guy who never took himself too seriously.

"I think this is my lowest-rated noir."

Apparently Martin’s never had the pleasure of viewing the Ed Wood Jr. noir masterpiece,” Jail Bait.”

HJ,

With a degree in history, I never find it "...dull and boring..."

Wow all 25 volumes when you were a "young buck!" What's wrong with you, didn't they have girls around where you lived?
...

How about something on the most noirish event in history? Namely volume III of Samuel Elliot Morrison's "History of the United States Naval Operations in WWII: "The Rising Sun in the Pacific."

Edgar G. Ulmer, the very mention of the name congers up of the dark images of his first U.S hit, The Black Cat and the suffocating femme fatale Vera from his noir tour de force on a shoestring,...

I've had this one for a couple of years but now have a reason to watch it.

Thanks Steve.

If we’re just talking gangsters, I’d add in an extra helping of Bogart; Bullets or Ballots, Racket Busters, The Amazing Dr. Clitterhouse, The Big Shot, Invisible Stripes, Brother Orchid, High Sierra,...

Normally I would send a good deal of time going into the story, but I felt even the slightest telling would give it away.

“When Strangers Marry,” later re-released as “Betrayed” is a little concoction under the direction of William Castle and produced by King Brother Productions in 1944. William Castle is well known to...

Scene of the Crime?

Yeah, you and two thousand others collectors. If you find it let us know.

Any one here record the recent HBO presentation of Mildred Pierce? If so, would like to obtain a copy via a swap.

Thanks

Released by United Artist in 1959, Odds Against Tomorrow is the compelling story of three diverse men and a “One roll of the dice and we’re through forever” heist that brings these unlikely...

Outstanding work as usual Night Editor.

I gotta go along with Slim. These were, to coin a phase, a slam dunk.

All I can say is "Rosebud!"

This week we take a second look at Mickey Rooney’s initial journey into the world of noir. Released by United Artists in 1950, “Quicksand” was sandwiched between Mick’s “sports films” which were made...

The second round, The Killing vs The Asphalt Jungle, that's just brutal Rich.

Question which may have already been addressed, but when can we expect some more Out the Past podcasts?

Thanks

Any thing with Bill Bendix is on my favorite list.

Had no problem selecting Blade Runner over Brick. Can't say I didn't have some soul searching on quite a few of the others.

Steve,

This one, was the one I was most looking forward to seeing on the big screen last year at Noir City 8. Not only is it a wonderful showcase for Garfield but as you note "Robey ducks police...

"Scarlet Street" is also one of my favorties and it too is one of the films to be shown (March 30th) during the "Darkness in Durango" film series.
