Day 17: Duo Sydney Greenstreet and Peter Lorre In the nine films they made together (from The Maltese Falcon in 1941 to The Verdict in 1946), their strikingly disparate acting styles somehow seamlessly meshed every time #NoirvemberChallenge

I can't let #Noirvember go by without rewatching Double Indemnity. Every line is quotable. The standouts this time round are Walter Neff: Suddenly it came over me that everything would go wrong. [...] I couldn't hear my own footsteps. It was the walk of a dead man.





Day 16 #NoirvemberChallenge Lesser-known #filmnoir everyone should see? High Tide ('47) dir by John Reinhardt. Starring Lee Tracy, Don Castle, and Julie Bishop. A “newspaper noir”, it has it all – stellar writing, acting, & that ending. The @noirfoundation restored it in 2013.

Day 15 of the #NoirvemberChallenge is the Film Noir Character You'd Trust the Least With Your Secrets. I think I'll go with Kathie Moffat of Out of the Past. She'd do or say anything to save her azz, including putting my business in the streets. #Noirvember

#Noirvemberchallenge @Ladykdesigns Day 15. "There is in existence, a letter...."










Day 14 #NoirvemberChallenge Who is on the #filmnoir Mt. Rushmore (actors, directors, etc)? Submitted by @rvzjazz This was hard! I’m going with actors Humphrey Bogart (Most Iconic), Robert Mitchum & Claire Trevor (genre King and Queen), and directors Robert Siodmak & Fritz Lang.




Day 10 #NoirvemberChallenge Fav Gloria Grahame #filmnoir? She’s a legend, & choosing one role is difficult, but I pick The Big Heat ('53), playing the complex Debby Marsh. Considered one of her most iconic performances, she keeps you rooting for this tough dame’s transformation.

Day 9 #NoirvemberChallenge Favorite Dan Dureya #filmnoir? There are many you could pick, and they're all good, but today I chose Criss Cross ('49), starring Richard Widmark as brutal gangster Slim Dundee, with perfect villainous betrayal and slimy darkness right until the end.
