Movie Favorite

"Humphrey Bogart, Gloria Grahame, and Nicholas Ray: the film-noir hat trick. Based on Dorothy B. Hughes’s very different but equally brilliant novel, it’s doomy, romantic, pitch-black, and unforgettable. The Criterion extras here are particularly superb, with special attention to the movie’s turbulent backstory (Ray and Grahame were divorcing during production). This is the movie for which I’m most intensely evangelical. It feels as vital now as it did a half century ago."

Surprise
I picked up this book knowing that the series was starting on Netflix. I did not expect to be sucked in and unable to put the book down until I finished three days later nor did I expect to then go out and purchase the rest of the series based solely on the stories and writing of the first book. it is a relatively easy read but still full of interesting characters and stories and I'm looking forward to seeing them fleshed out further.
