In 1949, with Collier Young, Lupino founded a production company. They produced films on controversial issues & she directed their 1st project:
NOT WANTED (1949)
It was about abortion & it was Lupino's directorial debut, though he was uncredited.

Re: Gaudeamus Igitur
The music box song that I declared is the key to understanding this great Film Noir ... if you don't know the reference, then please look it up later, especially if you appreciate profound poetry.

Just in case I forgot to post this:

To me, the most important heuristic read of
BEWARE, MY LOVELY (1952)
Is the meaning of the song that the music box
Plays, viz., Gaudeamus Igitur, which is basically synonymous with Memento Mori
Since I adore music boxes, I have a sweet Film Noir list.

Corky does not appear to like [Robert Ryan as] Howard Wilton
And Howard surely doesn't like Corky!

What an interesting shot in
BEWARE, MY LOVELY (1952)
As are so many in this noir, due to the cinematographer George E. Diskant, who does wild work with reflections & Dutch angles.

That’s about it for #ChristmasNoir, since Christmas Eve is given over to more standard Christmas fare. Hopefully this helps to bridge the gap for #noir fans until #NoirAlley returns, post holiday. Enjoy, Noiristas! #TCMParty 9)

The unconvincing ending of

"She's lucky to have a Mother like you. Everyone has a mother like me. You probably had one, too."
"You don't know how a family can surround you at times. Do you never get away from your family? No. You have your family, I have my Nagel."
Max Ophüls' The Reckless Moment (1949) #ChristmasNoir
"You're alone. But you don't mind that. You're a loner. That's the way it should be. You like it that way."
"It's Christmas and everyone is on that goodwill kick... so maybe they'll leave you alone."
