A ★★★★½ review of Body Heat (1981) Held off on watching this for a long time because I feared it would be overrated and just another DOUBLE INDEMNITY ripoff. It does seem so at first, albeit a well-made one. William Hurt is the patsy t...

and here it is in list format, all the noir films I watched as part of #noirvember2024 #noirvember #filmsky letterboxd.com/mrnarci/list...

my final film in #noirvember2024, a rewatch of a film I loved a lot the first time I watched it, and whose opening scene and opening credits remain as terrifying as I found it then

Kiss Me Deadly (Robert Aldrich; 1955) #noirvember #filmsky

A ★★★★½ review of Devil in a Blue Dress (1995) Do not dismiss this as "Black CHINATOWN". Based on the first of Walter Mosley's Easy Rawlings novels, this should have been the beginning of a film franchise. Set in post-War Los Angeles, Easy Rawling...

my final new-to-me #noirvember2024 entry, and my second Borzage

Moonrise (Frank Borzage; 1948) #noirvember #filmsky

A ★★★★ review of The Big Combo (1955) Joseph H. Lewis (GUN CRAZY) takes the the standard noir cop obsessed with taking down a crimelord and turns it upside down. Cornel Wilde attempts to use mob boss Richard Conte's suicidal girl friend a...

my final Burt Lancaster-starrer this #noirvember

Criss Cross (Robert Siodmak; 1949) #noirvember2024 #filmsky

A ★★★★ review of Marlowe (1969) As much I like this post-noir adaptation, James Garner seems more like Jim Rockford than Philip Marlowe here. Main reasons to watch are Bruce Lee destroying Marlowe's office and Rita Moreno as a burle...

A ★★★ review of Tightrope (1984) Noirish film set in New Orleans in which Clint Eastwood is a homicide detective but ISN'T Dirty Harry (You'd be surprised at how many people insist that this part of the series). Eastwood is a divorce...

a rewatch after a decade #noirvember2024

The Killing (Stanley Kubrick; 1956) #noirvember #filmsky

A ★★★★★ review of The Last Seduction (1994) Bridget Gregory (Linda Fiorentino) is the ultimate noir femme fatale. She exudes sex and seems to have no moral compass whatsoever. Bridget makes Barbara Stanwyck and Kathleen Turner look like nuns. S...

A ★★★★ review of Miller's Crossing (1990) Gabriel Byrne is a hood and gambling addict. He's not exactly loyal to Prohibition era Irish mob boss Albert Finney, since he's messing with Finney's mistress Verna (Marcia Gay Harden) on the side. It...

A ★★★★★ review of Chinatown (1974) While I'm sure we can all agree Polanski is a scumbag (and if you disagree, you probably should unfollow me), I still feel CHINATOWN is a masterpiece. Robert Towne's script plays a major part, reimagi...

A ★★★★ review of Suddenly (1954) Tension filled thriller starring Frank Sinatra as crazed hitman John Baron (is that where Trump took his alias from?) who likes to brag about his war record. Sinatra and his gang invade a hilltop hous...

A ★★★★½ review of Kiss Me Deadly (1955) Essential film noir. Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer (Ralph Meeker) is a far cry from Sam Spade or Phillip Marlowe. He's not so much a detective as he is an opportunistic thug. Hammer picks up a woman w...

Beyond A Reasonable Doubt (Fritz Lang; 1956) #noirvember #filmsky

A ★★★ review of The Falcon in San Francisco (1945) The Falcon -- or rather the Falcon's Brother (Tom Conway) -- is going on a San Francisco vacation with Goldie (Edward Brophy). On the train, they meet a little girl who claims she's held prisoner by h...

A ★★★★½ review of Dark Passage (1947) Humphrey Bogart is a prison escapee convicted for killing his wife (don't worry, he's innocent in this one). He is eventually picked up by Lauren Bacall who offers to help. Bacall had followed his cas...

A ★★★★½ review of The Maltese Falcon (1941) Although it may seem tame compared to the post-war noir films, THE MALTESE FALCON still holds up today. Humphrey Bogart's Sam Spade is welcome change from the British detectives, yellowface sleuths, a...

A ★★★★★ review of Laura (1944) The mark of a great movie is how it holds up after repeat viewings, especially if there's a shocking twist. LAURA is definitely one that does (and there's a major twist but I'll keep this spoiler free...

A ★★½ review of The Whip Hand (1951) Minor Cold War paranoia noir. It was actually about Nazis hiding out in post-War America but was rewritten and reshot to be about Russians instead. Elliott Reid is a photojournalist on a fishing trip ...
