    Can you name this noir? It's not on DVD.
    New York Confidential, I've heard great things about this film but a watchable copy seems to be exceedingly rare. I've certainly never seen it.

    it is! Did you see it at Noir City? I believe it was last year or the year before. Man, the print they have is fantastic.

    I did see it there last year. Beautiful print and a fun movie with some great lines.

    Yes, this is an easy one, I even think this image is on the poster (and the cover of the DVD). Still, a striking image. He looks a bit like Robert Ryan in this shot, but he isn't (it is Mark Stevens).

    That's it. A rare decent MGM noir. Van Johnson probably gave it away...

    Van Johnson? Who'da thunk? I'd half-thought Sonny Tufts. Well done.

    This DVD -- http://www.amazon.com/New-York-Confi...dp/B003F10EO8/ -- is the version that was on sale at the last Noir City in Chicago. I didn't buy it, but it looks decent. Does anyone have a copy and can speak to the quality of the print?

    It's Gloria Grahame in A Woman's Secret.

    I did purchase it and it's a very decent print.
