The Beast Of The City (1932) with Walter Huston and Lady Killer (1933) with James Cagney had some some pretty good car chase sequences. These are both pre-code crime films but would definitely recommend them to Film Noir Fans that haven't seen them as well.
I have watched and enjoyed these episodes for years; this installment was particularly scintillating. Bertrand Tavernier is cited! Harry in Your Pocket is mentioned, I saw it as a child, Walter Pidgeon is outstanding. David Mamet’s covert eloquence is revealed! Therei is a pithy examination of slasher flicks! Best wishes Eddie, Anne and Tizzy…
Ministry of Fear is certainly a GREAT noir by the master of noir, Fritz Lang. My Name is Julia Ross is a wonderful short noir also. And of course as Eddie said, Detour.
I wish Eddie would sit down and catalog all of the Noir Films he has seen and rate them not by stars ***** but by numbers 1-10. I would buy that book! Anne's movie IQ has to be 150+
There was a mention of The Whistler blu ray. Is Eddie talking about the Onesmedia bluray set? I had bought their DVD set. It was annoying because there logo kept coming up throughout each movie.
the Out of the Past driver deserves more than 2 stars! He picks right up with Mitchum after years away, does some stuff without complaining. Moves the story along as a guy from his past
The perky female cabbie, complete with cap & uniform, in "The Big Sleep" who flirts with Bogart. "No, call me in the morning, I work nights" - great line!
Harry In Your Pocket could have been a great film but was totally sabotaged by MGM studio head/hack James T Aubrey. Also see Going Home, Chandler, The Carey Treatment, Wild Rovers, Pat Garret, etc. Wrecked James Coburn’s career.

38:00 My name is Julia Ross is a great short noir , about 65 minutes.

The bank heist/chase scene in, "Gun Crazy" is worth noting....a continuous shot from the back seat of the getaway car.
Why not a separate Ask Anne about horror movies, so this one can keep on topic about film noir?

Sadly I didn't get to meet Anne at the TCM Film Festival. Maybe next year.
1:10:00 Surely 5 stars for the cabby in Deadline at dawn ?
I had no idea there was more than one Lemmy Caution movie!

the Uber driver question was great

Ripley is great. I bet Highsmith would be proud!
