Haven't seen A Dangerous Profession yet, but thanks, it's now on my watch list.

The Angels used the Wrigley Field in this movie as their home for their first season in 1961.

Hmm. The sorority's loss, I'd say. Though I'm sure Pat felt it was hers at the time.

@@NoirFan77 PN even mentioned it in her autobiography, which I read when nothing else around, but it is rather good. She seems an honest, down-to-earth person. Her marriage w Ronald Dahl, a very difficult man, is discussed even-handedly. I assume many people read it for R Dahl. If she wrote it herself, she is a good writer. Few actresses or actors of that era wrote autobiographies.

@@ameryek.9607 I've long been a huge fan of Patricia Neal. Truly a lady with guts, with huge talent and without pretense. I didn't know she wrote an autobiography. Thanks for that, I'll look for it. BTW she's excellent, as usual, in the noir Breaking Point (1950), not to mention non-noirs as well.

@@NoirFan77 Her book became NY Times bestseller, back in the day.

He is the best at this

That's a tough one. Unfortunately it's not available for streaming nor on a legit DVD. And it's not on Watch TCM. All I can say is keep your eyes peeled for a possible repeat on TCM, or buy a bootleg DVD.

Cool

Yeah it really struck me how out of place his performance was here. I dare say just bad. Something about his delivery, hes just not believable as this character. Sort of makes me rethink his placing as this elite noir actor. He can do the smoldery banter with women okay, probably bc his look overcomes a huge talent gap, but out of those scenes hes really just flat next to other male actors, I find. I know hes this icon to people but I feel like people act like he has this on screen intensity of a Sterling Hayden or something. He doesn't. Take Crossfire as another example, basically every other actor in that film outshines his performance. I wouldn't feel the need to say it except that people seem to overrate him so much. I think hes typecast well as the handsome sucker, that's basically his roles in Out of the Past and Angel Face. Tough talking guys that are essentially in denial that they're putty to women.

@@MM-qm9ld come on. this movie is an overwrought stinker. and like i said he was making 3 movies at the same time being shifted back and forth. Mitch is an icon. the part of the suffering artist simp should have been Wilding. look at the studio he had to survive in. btw he wrote the most beautiful real poetry throughout his life. Cabo San Lucas Rising early to beat the heat a little dry from last nights booze. We’re soon out miles from land where the big fish roam under the sun and stars, undisturbed by time’s wave-measured march. Slicing bonito for bait, the blood is red against all the blue. Blue above and below. The hook, hungering for meat, shines blue in my hand as I drop its feathered plume into the wake. We drink beer and wait for the line to sing, rattling off the reel like a runaway train, tightening under the drag, burning the leather stop. The marlin leaps, its bill skewering the sky, carves and dances in the blue, then twists and dives. The rod quivers in the belt. Leather biting my back I reel and pull, the marlin leaps again, I heave forward and rare back as fire sweat and salt gather on my skin A moment’s slack, a shake, the fish is free. Why aren’t all losses as lovely as this? Quien sabe?

you can find it on u...torrent sites. i love Mitch and watched it but tbo Mitch kinda sleeps through this one. i think he was jumping from set to set during this time. and the movie is overly dramatic and not that good.

There are various hits for the legit DVD if you do a web search. You might even find it in your local library.

​@@NoirFan77 Thanks! The hunt is on!!!

Sure thing

Unfortunately it's not in the public domain. Right now the only place you can stream it from is Watch TCM. But it does come up on TCM often, so if you subscribe eventually you'll find it there again.

@@NoirFan77 Thanks for suggestion, but I do not own a TV set. I can't get streaming services on my laptop, can I? Anyway, I don't have good enough WiFi at home to buy a TCM sub.

@@ameryek.9607 You can definitely get streaming services on your laptop. Or phone, even. Or tablet. But you would definitely want good WiFi at least. Buying a TCM sub means either cable (or satellite, I suppose ... don't know about satellite) with a tier that includes TCM. Or subscribing to KZbin TV or Hulu+ Live TV. Here's a link with some information, I'm not taking a position on their accuracy or objectivity: agoodmovietowatch.com/how-to/channels/tcm/

You need to see this. When I had cable, it lived on my DVR. It's Lorraine Day's best movie. It also has one of my favorite shots in a noir film. The shot is a little startling and beautiful at the same time. It's near the end of the film. I don't want to drop any spoilers. I hope you can see it soon.

I'm with you. Just as it's hard to imagine anyone other than Holden in Sunset Blvd.
