Eddie Muller for President. No, wait, he deserves better than that. Czar of Noir as the it states.

This is the second movie that began a decades-long deep dive into films noir. And in particular, Eddie Muller's commentaries. It came in a very colorful box set that completely drew me into that Other World of Noir. Also, to add to this untouchable description of the movie, characterizations and even the in-person meeting between Mr. Muller and Lawrnce Tierney, keep in mind that 1945 we were reaching the end of WWII and finding out about the atrocities that had occurred and were continuing to occur. Entire countries were lapped up and exploited or destroyed because of this war. Our women were going to work and sometimes finding a certain amount of freedom of their own, however it came about. All of this dynamic was going on worldwide and here at home is this little gem. Think of how women, in this new world, would now be able to view Claire Trevor's character. Yes, this is another great summary by Eddie Muller on an amazing film. Thank you, Noir Fan (not affiliated) for bringing this to us.

Excellent intro. How can you NOT want to watch this movie after watching this video? lol

[@RickTBL]

I love the short theme at the beginning. Does it have a name? Is it from something else?

[@ameryek.9607]

Oh, Eddie, that necktie! And Claire Trevor, the hats! That Lawrence Tierney is a baddie. He has a lizard-like charm, like George Raft. I think standards of male attractiveness have changed a bit since this movie, though. JT is just too tough looking.
