#Noirvember #filmnoir Assassin for Hire (1951) is a low-budget British crime thriller with a definite film noir flavour. Sydney Tafler is superb as a hitman with some depth and the plot has some nasty twists. An excellent well-crafted B noir.

Piccadilly, a stylish 1929 British silent melodrama. Pretty Chinese girl Shosho gets her chance as a dancer and becomes the toast of the town. Pure romantic melodrama, let down by the ending. Anna May Wong gives her best performance as Shosho.
