#99RiverStreet

#99RiverStreet is new to me, and I can't pass up the opportunity for some Peggie Castle fan fiction. 😉 #TheNoirCollective

#99RiverStreet #thenoircollective Another porthole noir!

Jack Lambert plays Mickey, thug and enforcer working for Christopher. He does a really chilling job as our resident heavy with a brutal fight scene later on. He's great in The Killers, where he gets to play Dum-Dum. He's also in The Enforcer and Kiss Me Deadly. #TheNoirCollective #99RiverStreet

John Payne, our battered hero, was once Hollywood's nicest guy; the lawyer who saved Santa in Miracle on 34th Street. By 1953, he'd reinvented himself as noir's favorite punching bag in #99RiverStreet, Kansas City Confidential, Larceny, The Crooked Way and more. #TheNoirCollective

My favourite part of Eddie Muller's commentary on the #99RiverStreet Blu-ray is here in the diner when he says something like, "I'm going to stop talking for a little bit here. Evelyn would KILL me if I talked over her scene." #TheNoirCollective

When it comes right down to it, #99RiverStreet is basically a cautionary tale about ever telling anyone, “I’m having a bad night.” Because if they know anything about film, they’re just gonna come back and say, “Really? Is it as bad as Ernie Driscoll’s?” #TheNoirCollective

COMING SOON: I had the pleasure of chatting with @mrstevehunt.bsky.social, the Host of the Boxing Movie Podcast this past weekend about #99RiverStreet, and the episode will air later in August! #TheNoirCollective: be sure to follow him and listen www.stevehuntboxing.com/b….

I think one of the reason why I love John Payne, is that much like Harrison Ford later on in our era, he's not afraid of taking a beating and looking like it, as well as Alan Ladd. #TheNoirCollective #99RiverStreet

F Yeah film noir! 🚬 #TheNoirCollective #99RiverStreet

#99RiverStreet #thenoircollective World-renowned musician and bandleader Artie Shaw had 8 wives — his last was Evelyn Keyes.

Again, I love Keyes’ choices here. She doesn’t just turn into a fun-loving floozy. She shows how an actress with limited worldview would imagine a fun-loving floozy behaves. And as before, Linda’s so desperate to act, she’ll risk anything: a friendship, her life… #TheNoirCollective #99RiverStreet
