Film noir, that dark and cynical
genre that found its niche in Hollywood films of the 40's...black rainy
streets, criminal treachery, victimized anti-heros and femme fatales...Warner
Bros., RKO, and Columbia gave us some of the best. Here, the Mave spotlights
three movies from a studio known more for its colorful musicals than film
noir: MGM. Even though all three films have the lush production
values so characteristic of that studio, they are still disturbing and
sinister enough to be considered noir...MGM Style.
