#Noirvember #filmnoir Act of Violence (1948) belongs to the crazy WW2 vet noir sub-genre. Lots of angst, moral ambiguity and self-pity. An emotional roller-coaster ride and it’s a full-blooded excursion into the noir depths.

A 1936 movie whose ads I stumbled across yesterday: “And So They Were Married”. Starring Mary Astor and Melvyn Douglas, with child actors Edith Fellows and Jack Moran.

Tonight in 1959 — #MaryAstor and #FranchotTone guest starred on ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS.
It was the first (and only) team-up for these #OldHollywood icons.

Red Dust (1932). A steamy tropical adventure/romance. Overheated and dripping with sweaty eroticism. It’s also funny and charming. Harlow is a delight as the cheerful whore. Superb chemistry between Jean Harlow and Clark Gable. One of the pre-code greats.

I just watched Across the Pacific (John Huston, 1942) and rated it 7/10 ~ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Across_the_Pacific?wprov=sfla1 #films #cinema #cinemastadon #AcrossThePacific #HumphreyBogart #MaryAstor #JohnHuston some fun, sparky dialogue but the film loses its way once they reach the canal.

“The Case of the Howling Dog” (1934) is the first Perry Mason movie. The others done by Warren William in the 1930s tend to be breezy affairs, as I recall. This one, however, is a bit more serious, with a little edge to it and it all works extremely well. Mary Astor does an excellent job as Mason’s mysterious client.
