MOOD: The Invisible Man (1933) science fiction #noirror #protonoir directed by James Whale. Based on H. G. Wells' 1897 novel, and stars Claude Rains, Gloria Stuart, and William Harrigan. Financially successful, the NY Times placed it in their best for '33. ๐ฝ๏ธ๐
Hollywood wasn't quite ready for a story like Out of the Fog in 1941. This dark drama is actually a #ProtoNoir and was ahead of its time. - TCM

All you cinephiles ought to watch the original German with English subtitles of M (1931), namely, M - Eine Stadt sucht einen Mรถrder. Furthermore, you'll note the German ending is so wickedly noirishly better than the English version & the French one.

"La Chienne" (1931) directed by Jean Renoir stars Michel Simon. He loves a prostitute (Jeanieย Janie Marรจse) but her brute pimp (Georges Flamant) is never far. If it sounds familiar, the American version is 1945โs #filmnoir โScarlet Streetโ starring Joan Bennett and Edward G. Robinson. #protonoir
Day 3 #NoirvemberChallenge Fav #ProtoNoir? They all came before the term #filmnoir was coined and each of them lays the groundwork for the genre:
The 39 Steps ('35)
The Letter ('40)
They Drive by Night ('40)
