It is terrific all around. The doom of Harry Fabian is very stark even by noir standards. It is a shame that Jules Dassin's American career practically ended after this.<br /><br />Another one I watched was Kansas City Confidential, which was shown on TCM's Noir Alley. It is a unique take on a heist story that entertains. I am always glad to see Lee Van Cleef show up on the screen.A Casual Listenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02395983733474039015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-18712033025480851502019-11-12T18:33:33.081-06:002019-11-12T18:33:33.081-06:00The Window is an excellent film, one of the few no...The Window is an excellent film, one of the few noirs with a child as the protagonist. Its portrayal of life in 1940s New York City was a big reason I enjoyed the film. I believe it is based on the same Cornell Woolrich story that inspired Rear Window.

Plus it features the magical combo of Gene Tierney and Richard Widmark, so you truly can't lose.rosiejoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15387708978537779522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-57779667095274550662019-11-12T08:52:25.408-06:002019-11-12T08:52:25.408-06:00I quite love Ride the Pink Horse; haven't seen...I quite love Ride the Pink Horse; haven't seen the others but I will have to add to my watchlist! rosiejoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15387708978537779522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-42965517493044963342019-11-12T07:42:51.639-06:002019-11-12T07:42:51.639-06:00Pure Cinema has given me 4 recommendations that I&...Pure Cinema has given me 4 recommendations that I've been meaning to watch:<br />Ride the Pink Horse<br />The Window<br />Report to the Commissioner<br />The Phenix City Story<br /><br />Pretty sure they're all noir or noirish...

Those spaghetti western stylings make it stand out from the many Japanese gangster films of the period, particularly in that finale. <br /><br />I will try to get around to the 1950 film NIGHT AND THE CITY this month.
