There's a pretty good Noir on #TCMParty right now. #ActOfViolence. Interesting to see Mary Astor and Janet Leigh at very different parts of their careers. 1949

Oh, man, #ActOfViolence was amazing and now I'm looking forward to #BlackGravel on #NoirAlley next week.
-
Hats off to Andre Previn for the way the music was conducted.

#ActOfViolence should be in the dictionary next to the definition of #Noir: everyone is doing something they know is wrong, that they know is shady. No one trusts the institutions of society to set things right. Those institutions are trains on tracks that just pass them by.
-
Man #ActOfViolence is amazing and ahead of its time. This movie would bear a 21st Century reinterpretation. #NoirAlley #TCMParty
-
Frank comes back smelling of booze and hooker perfume and Edith either ignores it or doesn't notice.
-
Edith and Ann can do waaay better than Frank and Joe

Frank if you don't pay Pat for her time and for the use of the couch, you're a goddamn heel.
-
This film is obscuring the issue of justice with Joe's quest for vengeance. Ann's speech is about vengeance, and she ignores justice
Those 10 men still deserve justice.
-
OK, Ann is going to turn out to be the moral center of this film, isn't she? #ActOfViolence #NoirAlley #TCMParty
-
Frank's dominant moral quality is cowardice, allied to a belief in institutions. #ActOfViolence #NoirAlley #TCMParty

what will make this perfect would be if Gavery's pitch was a pure grift. #ActOfViolence #NoirAlley #TCMParty

🎶Gavery and Johnny were lovers. 🎵 #ActOfViolence #NoirAlley #TCMParty

JFC this is a dark scene even by #FilmNoir standards

$20,000 in 1948 is about $266,000 today. #ActOfViolence #NoirAlley #TCMParty

enter the hooker with the heart of gold?
-
the diagetic incidental dialog in this film is amazing. First that very realistic ribbon cutting banter at the beginning, then these two drunks outside the Columbus Inn.

Ann has Chekov's gun in her purse!
-
Phyllis Thaxter chewed up that scene in the best possible way. Well done.
-
I don't understand why Joe and others didn't make a report of this and get Frank court martialed after the war.
-
Oh jeez Frank you went to the SS when the first duty of a prisoner is to escape?
You thought these men had honor?
Oh, Frank.
You're to be commended for telling it in all its ugliness.
-
Oh, Frank, you are very concerned with what Joe told Edith about what happened in that camp, aren't you?
-
oh, and add to that "physical impairment becomes moral impairment."
-
On the one hand, Joe's problem is being treated with sensitivity in the script.
On the other hand, this is another "traumatized people will traumatize others" trope, as well as "the mentally ill are dangerous."
-
This is where I start seeing Frank taking moral shortcuts, as well. If he was this damaged man's commander, he would feel some responsibility for getting him care.
This is the social commentary of the film. Relevant again, with cuts to the VA looming.
-
Frank, you've got to teach Edith better opsec.
-
THIS IS A HORROR MOVIE.
-
you know i put room-darkening shades in all our rooms, too.
