How did everyone end up watching this?


I watched this on a big mob movies collection ( Most of them are crap )and the imdb ratings were much higher than the others so I decided to watch this.

It played today on CUNY TV, New York City, channel 75. This independent NY TV channel shows 2 classic old films every Sunday in the early afternoon. I love classic films and film noirs.

By the way, until recently, the City Cinematheque series from CUNY TV showed good classic and foreign films from all times, the same film would repeat on Saturday and Sunday nights at 9 pm as well on Fridays at 12.00 am and they are presented by a Professor Jerry Carlson, City College, CUNY. Each film is followed by a lively discussion with scholars, film professionals and critics.

It looks like they will resume the showings on 28 September.

One can write to them and request that they show a film explaining why, they would be very happy to get requests from film enthusiasts. http://www.cuny.tv/show/citycinematheque/PR2000092

Some of their films can be watched on their Film Library online.

The guys at youtube. They have a nice collection of noir in their library.

Boys and girls, ladies and gentleman, "TBC" is classic film noir from the classic period (1941-1958). If one is a fan of film noir, the Blu-ray release would be in your collection. BTW, if one has not seen the film on Blu-ray, and likes this picture, purchase the disc. "Streaming" is for kids!

It was mentioned on the episode of "I Love Lucy" where Cornell Wilde guest starred

Currently working on a screenplay in 'film noir style', and watched this as part of research.
