--Lots of "killers" and murder, as the titles demonstrate.
--A 1-2 punch (just enough, not too much!) for race issues in noir, and a plug for the most problematic film in Pierre Chenal's filmography (NATIVE SON).
--A chance for Eddie to show the limits of his actual knowledge about Julien Duvivier.
Of course, some great films here, along with some odd, wonky choices as NOIR ALLEY continues to amble around in its own dark, inchoate spaces...
