MissGoddess Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Since Jeff (Snarfie) has been doing so splendidly with the Pre-Code Gallery, I thought it might be fitting to have one for the darker side of the TCM City. As I find them, I'll try to post as many images related to the style and welcome everyone who can to participate (and make requests!). To start things off, my poster boy for film noir, *Robert Mitchum,* takes it on the chin for love, in *Out of the Past* : Link to post Share on other sites

ken123 Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I think that there are some wicked winnimm who post on these boards. They have very wicked senses of humor and they are also very intelligent . Link to post Share on other sites
FrankGrimes Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Miss Gun For Hire -- Congrats on the 5,000 posts. I apologize for drooling on about a 1,000 of them. And, for the record, not all of them have been photo posts, either. You're gonna sink me with this Noir Gallery. You will have to drag the lake. The good news is that I'm gonna drown in Veronica Lake in this thread. Ken -- I think that there are some wicked winnimm who post on these boards. They have very wicked senses of humor and they are also very intelligent. That's right, you better start begging if you want your treats. I'd like to warn you about those women with wicked senses of humor and intelligence, but I can't. You see, I'm the corpse in the corner with a knife in his back. And even if I were alive, you wouldn't listen. None of us ever do. Link to post Share on other sites
MissGoddess Posted September 6, 2007 Author Share Posted September 6, 2007 Ha ha! You guys are too funny---and I'm glad you enjoy the thread so far, I've only just gotten started. I have a few more random images to post from different movies, and then I'll focus in on more "wickid wimmin" to keep you satisfied---and on edge.

MissGoddess Posted September 6, 2007 Author Share Posted September 6, 2007 I know I've posted this in other threads but I love this picture so much---Alan Ladd is so absoultely gorgeous here in a troubled, bruised and smouldering sort of way. Ah, I am so primitive and the girl can't help it. Link to post Share on other sites
