  1. Whistle Stop is a 1946 film noir starring George Raft and Ava Gardner. It doesn't go where you think it's going. Ava had gone to Chicago to find glamour, excitement, money. Now she's come back to the loser she loves. Excellent underrated movie.

  9. George Raft (one of my favourite actors), Raymond Burr and Virginia Mayo star in Red Light (1949), a neglected film noir gem. Raft gets to be a tough guy, Burr gets to be evil. A must-see noir.

  13. Nocturne (1946) is a great noir-tinged hardboiled crime thriller with George Raft (one of my favourite actors) giving one of his best performances. Raft is a tough cop with an attitude. Lynn Bari makes a fine femme fatale.

  17. George Raft in top form in the entertaining film noir-inflected crime film Johnny Allegro (1949). Raft is an excellent flawed noir protagonist with two weaknesses - dames and taking risks. Nina Foch is a fine femme fatale.

  29. I just watched Escape Route (Seymour Friedman, 1952) and rated it 6/10 ~ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_R quite fun little espionage thriller with some fab London locations

  30. George Raft and Constance Cummings in “Night After Night” (1932). Raft shows quite a lively and dynamic personality in this movie—quite a contrast to his more stoic acting style I’m used to seeing in his later movies.

  34. Rogue Cop (1954) deals with a subject, police corruption, that was very touchy in the 50s.

    Robert Taylor stars and there’s a terrific supporting cast - George Raft, Janet Leigh and Anne Francis.

    Robert Taylor shed his matinee idol image in the 50s and gave some great cynical world-weary noir performances.

    A tough unsentimental hard-hitting film noir.

  38. Johnny Angel (1945), a lesser known nautical noir with a fine performance by the great George Raft. Written by Steve Fisher.

    Johnny Angel (George Raft) is a sea captain like his father. When he finds his father’s ship drifting at sea in the Gulf of Mexico, with its cargo intact but the crew (including his father) nowhere to be found, he is determined to find out what has happened.
