Blue is the Warmest Colour/La vie d'Adèle (FR, 2013)

Arrived at QFT to discover my membership had lapsed over 3 months ago.

Crashout (US, 1955)

Good prison breakout drama from the noir era, with some noir photography, but not a noir in its own right. Dependable noir regular William Bendix shows his mug again.

The Dark Corner (US, 1946)

A noir with Lucille Ball in it? Yes indeed, and not a bad one either, with some very good photography, especially at the beginning, and not the first happily-ever-after noir with an investigator and his hard-to-get secretary.

Strangers on a Train (US, 1951)

I'm going to utter a heresy: Hitchcock was good, but a bit overrated (IMHO).

Le Grand Amour (FR, 1969)

It's slightly pompous and boring filmmaking, but the saturated colouring of the era, and the featured locales make it passably watchable (à la Jacques Tati).

Somewhere in the Night (US, 1946)

The YT copy is of good quality, and while the film isn't bad, it's not the most convincing of noirs. The quality of the supporting cast (Richard Conte et al) has been commented upon.

Night Moves (US, 1975)

Another from the golden age of gritty and sometimes gloomily conspirational mid-1970's American cinema (of which there are a few reviewed elsewhere on this blog - Chinatown, Point Blank (1967), The Parallax View).
