Note: Eddie will not be able to answer questions posted during the livestream nor ones left on our social media accounts

This week’s questions:

Do you think that the CRIME DOES NOT PAY shorts series is a precursor to films like THE NAKED CITY?

Liz

Keep seeing Alfred Newman name for music credits.  Was he the inspiration for Mad Magazine’s Character? 

Kitaman

How have the classic noirs and noir performers fared at Oscar nomination time? Any egregious snubs?

Ben

Why is Hitchcock's NOTORIOUS never shown anymore? And 1948’s SLEEP, MY LOVE with Claudette Colbert, Don Ameche and Robert Cummings. If it's in the "vault" any possibility of its ever showing

Jenene

I think PHANTOM LADY isn't merely overrated, it's awful. Really none of it rings true. The whole film is weak, I think. Most especially Franchot Tone. Interested if you agree.

Nick

The collision of humor and noir is an interesting topic, don’t you think? I was thinking about this recently when I saw Dick Powell in the very weird, 1951 film YOU NEVER CAN TELL.  What is your favorite example of humor in classic film noir?

Kingpin Johnny, Doylestown, PA

Is there an actor that has played a villain in more than one film noir movies? And the performance was memorable.

Jeff from Brooklyn

Who is your favorite film noir character actor and why?

Harry, West Chester, PA

My question is about Ida Lupino's story.  Did it become a movie, or maybe more important, could it?  Based on what you said it appears to be perfect for these times.

Barb

Can you recommend books to read that were eventually made into film noirs?

Valencia

By any chance, are Eddie Muller, Anne Hockens, and/or the Film Noir Foundation using Letterboxd? Letterboxd lets you keep track of movies you have watched. You can rate them, log them in a diary-style Brett- Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

I wrote a short film screenplay (6 pages) for a present-day noir which I sent to the Santa Barbara International Screenplay Awards, for analysis only. They gave it a favorable score, but I think it would have been higher if they read it as a film noir. My question is, if you are trying to write a screenplay reflecting the aesthetics of Film Noir, is there an organization I can send it to that can judge it for what it is?

THE TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE: Noir or Not?

Doug, Silver Spring, MD

What are your opinions on these German crime films:

IT HAPPENED IN BROAD DAYLIGHT (1958)

THE DEVIL STRIKES AT NIGHT (1957)

WET ASPHALT (1958)

ALIBI (1955)

STOLEN IDENTITY (1953)

A DEGREE OF MURDER (1967)

WHIRLPOOL (1959)

And are there precursors to the currently popular Scandinavian noir films?

Greetings from the Netherlands, Maarten

Did you ever have the chance to meet either Siskel or Ebert, and talk about movies with them? Did they share any special insights about noir movies with you?

Dan from South Dakota
