222characteractor Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 I watched Decoy, a fantastic film noir from 1946 on TCM. I thought that Guy Kibbee was one of the workers in the morgue, burt he wasn't listed on IMDB. Could anyone corrobate that Kibbee was in this film? By the way, there was an astonishing performance by Jean Gillie as the ruthless femme fatale in the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you like the film? I found it laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dargo Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Could be a lookalike. Yep, that's what I'm thinkin' here, ham. Maybe it was Guy's half brother GOY Kibbee?! (...you know...the Kibbee who refused to convert) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownGoesFrazier Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 I thought I saw Guy Kibbee in my local Wal-Mart, but I guess it was a lookalike. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

222characteractor Posted December 27, 2014 Author Share Posted December 27, 2014 The person who played the bumbling oaf in the morgue certainly played like a Kibbee character. He was slimmer than Kibbee in his heyday but looked a lot like him. I really feel it was him. The movie was incredibly film noirish. Jean Gilles played a ferocious female better than Ann Savage in Detour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decoy being a low budget sci-fi meets noir type film has it moments but also it flaws, but the performance of Jean Gilles as the femme fatale makes the film worth watching.
