The Great Hollywood Screenwriter Who Hated Hollywood Ben Hecht helped invent modern American cinema—while he was making other plans.

"Ben #Hecht's fingerprints are all over some of Hollywood's greatest movies, including early prototypes of what would become Film Noir."

The image is a trailer still from the film Cash on Demand, showing a charming but menacing André Morrell speaking to a shaken Peter Cushing.

@drahsturgis Thanks to #EddieMuller and #NoirAlley, I’m going to have to add another #December movie to my list above: #CashOnDemand, a tense, gripping film with legends #PeterCushing and #AndreMorrell. An undeservedly underappreciated gem from #Hammer in 1961.

Happy Birthday #EddieMuller ! @noirfoundation.bsky.social. Here's a look back at my interview with Eddie about his new revised edition of DARK CITY DAMES (which is excellent) at the link below.

Eddie Muller host of Noir Alley on Turner Classic Movies

Happy birthday to the Master of Noir, The Film Noir Foundation and TCM’s Eddie Muller, whose intros and outros on Noir Alley are sometimes better than the films. 🥂❤️ #BOTD #TCM #filmnoir #EddieMuller 🎬📽️ 🎈

Maybe I’m in a sappy mood but I really liked #TheBigStreet which isn’t quite film noir. I was surprised by Lucy’s exceptional performance, and #EddieMuller as usual was wonderful. #TCMParty #NoirAlley @eddiemuller.bsky.social

A dramatic movie poster for Sudden Fear. It features a close-up of Joan Crawford's terrified eyes peeking over a man's shoulder, with the title "Joan Crawford in Sudden Fear!" on a yellow lightning bolt. A small inset shows a woman kissing a man, hinting at romance and betrayal.

We're watching #SuddenFear tonight. I cannot believe we've slept on this movie! #TCMParty #NoirAlley #EddieMuller

I got another #filmnoir book 📖 y’all! 👏 😁 Check it out on ThriftBooks web site… #EddieMuller #movies #femmefatale

Pictured are two hardback books, Dark City: The Lost World of Film Noir and Dark City Dames: The Women Who Defined Film Noir. Both are revised and expanded editions by Eddie Muller.

So very, very good. Both of them.
