Mood: When Thursday sneaks up on you. Laura (1944) #filmnoir

📣Calling all members of #WidmarkWednesday Spring Break edition! #RichardWidmark #FilmNoir #ClassicFilm

Dear Tuesday: #FilmNoir

Just another fun Monday around here…

@FlandersRe34690 I have! It’s odd and brilliant. Loved it.

@LadyKdesigns Have you seen John Huston's "Wise Blood"? I loved it. One of my favorites.

Celebrating #botd for acting legend Walter Huston. His cameo in his son's directing debut, The Maltese Falcon ('41), is a favorite #filmnoir moment, and his Oscar win for the brilliant The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, also directed by his son. 🎂

Celebrating #botd 🎂 for the legend herself, Bette Davis. Two films of hers in the #filmnoir genre that I love are The Letter (1940) and Deception (1946). Leave your favorite Davis movie noir or not in the comments...

Mood: Saturday on the water with Robert Ryan Act of Violence (1949) #FilmNoir

April showers 🌧️bring May flowers... Gene Tierney here in #filmnoir, Laura (1944), with costumes by Bonnie Cashin. Considered a pioneer in the design of American sportswear, Cashin was hired in 1962 by Miles and Lillian Cahn as the first designer for Coach. #FilmNoirFashion

April 1 calls for a day of falls… please share your favorite gifs or pictures of falls from television or movies. I’ll start with the classic Melvyn Douglas fall in Ninotchka (1939)… a great dramatic actor but also a genius at comedy!

Thank you to all who joined in for my #WomensHistoryMonth featuring notable #WomenInNoir, heroines, dames, and #femmefatale in front of and behind the camera! Want more? Check out Eddie Muller’s Dark City Dames: The Women Who Defined #FilmNoir book. Highly recommend!

@boxingmoviepod Just seeing this (haven't been in the DMs for a while) and I responded!

@LadyKdesigns I sent you a DM a little while ago...

The first ever episode of the @boxingmoviepod focussed on The Set-Up. Audrey Totter is wonderful in it. Here's the link to the episode open.spotify.com/episode/5g6xlm…

@SugarpussOShea1 LEGEND.

@LadyKdesigns Tension “Drift!” Also love her against-type loyal wife in The Set-Up

Audrey Totter, the genre icon, starred in 15+ #filmnoir playing bad girls so good. Your favorite? 📽️ The Postman Always Rings Twice ('46) Lady in the Lake ('47) The Unsuspected ('47) High Wall ('47) Tension ('49) The Set-Up ('49) #WomenInNoir
