In honor of Roger Corman's passing I watched his first movie, which is on Tubi. Monster From the Ocean Floor, 1954, produced for $12,000. And so it began.

There probably wouldn't be enough interest to start a stand alone ID thread and only some of the shows are worth talking about. But there are many noirish elements to these shows: The psychological problems of some of the characters, a twist of fate, the innocent person looked at by the police as g...

This week's Film Noir is a Japanese movie made in 1960 - Take Aim at the Police Van. Wikipedia says it is a modern noir to compete with Hollywood's modern noirs. Doubt I will watch it.

I watched a few of his shows, but his persona kind of creeps me out. I never found him creepy, just too intense. He did often have interesting cases. What could be more noir than murders, confused individuals with deep psychological problems who often don't fit into the surrounding environment, inn...

Why not start an ID channel thread or similar under one of the other places?
The shows don't sound "noirish" to me, just another mystery/crime embellished by a TV channel/personalities.

Why are people posting about ID channel shows on the Noir Alley thread? Confuses me as I have never heard of these people or their shows.

Here is the list I have for the 13 Falcon films shown before on TCM: - Starring George Sanders as Gay Lawrence 01 The Gay Falcon (1941) 02 A Date with the Falcon (1942) 03 The Falcon Takes Over (1942) 04 The Falcon's Brother (1942) (with Tom Conway as Tom Lawrence) - Starring Tom Conway as Tom Lawr...

Of the 4 movies, "Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid." His brief cameo in "The Muppet Movie." But of course, "The Jerk." Not sure what the theme is. Not his birthday. Don't remember ever seeing "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels." "Father of the Bride" wasn't even clo...

24K Gold Music Shows on YouTube. Stumbled across this when looking for rock, pop, doo wop music. Very entertaining. Has a lot of performers, but best by far are the six women who dance and sing the oldies classics. There are others who perform solos or sing with group, but I don't think they are ver...

Even though I have seen it many times, I watched The Falcons Brother again. I was impressed by Jane Randolph. She also appears in the next Falcon movie, The Falcon Strikes back, which IMO is really well done. Harriett Hillard is also in it and far better acting than any she did as Harriett Nelson. O...

PAULA NEWS! Her show wasn't on last night! They are running In Pursuit again. Might be the beginning of the end! She was only on 3 months this time around. (As opposed to 5-6 mos. in the past). They may be phasing her out. (moving her from Sundays etc.)

Paula who and what show?

Don't know if this has been going on, but noticed The Falcon movies on May 4 and May 11 in the Saturday morning line-up. Is TCM going to show all of them in the Saturday morning lineup? Regardless, these are some of my favorite movies to watch and re-watch. Have them on DVD. I think Tom Conway is be...

And starring MISS SHELLEY WINTERS as Dixie Evans! Who came up with THAT billing? I was so unimpressed with the film, I forgot to check this thread! PU!!! It was static and as hammy as I (vaguely) remembered it! Hard to say who was the hammiest, Steiger or Palance. (At least Steiger wasn't in the wh...
