http://noirworthwatching.blogspot.com/2015/08/no-questions-asked-1951_85.html
Saturday, 1 August 2015. NO QUESTIONS ASKED (1951). This is an edited version of an article which appeared in the Summer 2015 Edition of Noir City. 8220;They turn a spotlight on you when they keep narrowing the circle closing in for the kill…You wonder how it happened and where it really began…”. Hough there are plenty of weightier noirs, few have the irresistible, jacked-up urgency of No Questions Asked. Pundit Jay MacIntyre says of the picture, “it’s a pulp novel come to life”. And Hart to Hart. The la...

Friday, 25 July 2014. VANISHING POINT (1970)/ GONE IN 60 SECONDS (1974). An ex-cop/ former racing driver (Barry Newman) gets whacked-out on Benzedrine and sets out to muscle a torqued-up 1970 Dodge Charger from Denver to San Francisco in record time. County cops and state troopers soon are all over him like a cheap suit. Unfortunately 'Vanishing Point' turns out to be a sour conceit of a movie that comes apart under the weight of its self-conscious heaviosity and general raggedness. Apart from Dean J...

Sunday, 29 March 2015. SUNNYLANDS NOIR: 2015 PALM SPRINGS INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL (January 2015). In Aussie-speak, if someone is ‘mad as a cut snake’ he's so ‘round the bend you don’t want to know. Here the someone is Jim aka ‘Pommie’ (Sullivan Stapleton) who after release from prison loses no time in tracking down an old mate, Merv ‘Sparra’ Farrell (Alex Russell). Like the others, ‘Cut Snake’ is coolly committed to its story and characters. Though the film’s set in 1974, there'...In contrast is R...

NoirWorthWatching: October 2014
http://noirworthwatching.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, 30 October 2014. FOR YOU I DIE (1947). Georgia (admiringly): ‘Maybe you’ve got something. (He’s) almost like having a wild animal for a pet’. Hope: (disgustedly) ‘You make me sick’. Meantime Gruber is out there and nothing‘s changed for him – which presents a serious problem for everyone. Thankfully after a time 'For You I Die’s better instincts show themselves and the film again begins to threaten. Johnny Coulter is straight out of the film noir workbook. Paul Langton a journeyman characte...
