Best B-Noir.
I am torn between Detour and Gun Crazy, so I am posting both.
Both have fierce femme fatales who get what they want--but it proves fatal. Both have suckers who end up in their clutches--and I love to watch them fall.

Day 12 of @ladykdesigns.bsky.social #NoirvemberChallenge
Sexiest Film Noir is Body Heat (but I am now tempted to watch Bound after seeing other posts)
Also has my favorite neo noir quote.
"You're not too smart, are you? I like that in a man."

Favorite Dan Duryea Noir is Too Late For Tears

Danny Fuller: Don't ever change, Tiger. I don't think I'd like you with a heart.

Favorite Line in a Film Noir is from Ace in the Hole.
"I don't go to church. Kneeling bags my nylons." This ex-Catholic agrees! #Noirvember l

Day 6 of @ladykdesigns.bsky.social #NoirvemberChallenge
Coolest Character in Film Noir for me is Zbigniew Cybulski in Ashes and Diamonds.
No wonder he was called the Polish James Dean!
#Noirvember "Why do you always wear those dark glasses?"
"A souvenir of unrequited love for my homeland."

Day 5 of @ladykdesigns.bsky.social #NoirvemberChallenge
Film Noir I would show someone who's never seen one is Double Indemnity.
The quotes, the femme fatale that is Phyllis, the whole thing is a perfect introduction. #Noirvember

Day 4 of @ladykdesigns.bsky.social #NoirvemberChallenge
Film Noir ahead of its time for me is City of Fear, where the dangers of nuclear radiation hits hard when an escaped convict steals what he thinks is heroin but is actually enough radioactive material to kill all of Los Angeles. #Noirvember

This is 39 plus 9.
A lonesome birthday as it's been six months since my mum's passing.

But despite my own troubles, I got to see a candidate for Most Sincere Pumpkin Patch for the Great Pumpkin when I covered an autumn event for my weekly newspaper.

Noir City Detroit starts tonight.
Do I rate a whistle? (Detour is showing along with Out of the Past)

Ready for Noir City Detroit. But feeling like I have been thrown off the crummiest freight train in the world. #NoirCityDetroit
