[B-side]

The Left Hand of God- 6

[Winston*]

Never heard of him before now. Have Farewell My Lovely in my queue though.

[soitgoes...]

Crossfire (1947) - 5.0
Raintree County (1957) - 4.0

[Yxklyx]

Murder, My Sweet - 8
Crossfire - 5
The Caine Mutiny - 8
Mirage - 2

[Rowland]

The Devil Commands - 6.5
Seven Miles from Alcatraz - 6.5

Seems like a solid B-genre craftsman from these two efforts. I'll be surprised if anyone else has seen either of them.

[Raiders]

Murder, My Sweet (1944) 7.5

[kopello]

Murder, My Sweet - 7

[dreamdead]

The End of the Affair - 5.5

I keep thinking I've seen some of his noirs but they're all blurring together. Will check out the plot synopsis of them before the week's out.

Murder, My Sweet- 8.5

My favorite Chandler adaptation. Love Mike Mazurski (sp) as Moose Malloy.

[Derek]

Murder, My Sweet - 7.0

Thought I'd seen more but I was confusing him with Robert Siodmak for some odd reason.

I would like to go on record as saying these ratings are bullshit. That is all.
