Liza and String are gonna plunge into moon canyon, aren’t they? #LightningStrikesTwice #NoirAlley #TCMParty

Mercedes’ over the shoulder pose here definitely looks a silent film shot. #LightningStrikesTwice #NoirAlley #TCMParty

Once we found out Mercedes McCambridge was in the picture, we figured it was her, right? #LightningStrikesTwice #NoirAlley #TCMParty

Did we find out why String is disabled? Was it Lorraine’s fault?My attention has wandered during all the exposition dumps. #LightningStrikesTwice #NoirAlley #TCMParty

Chekhov’s doorknob!!!! #lightningstrikestwice #NoirAlley #TCMParty

Still cracking up about “moon canyon” tbh #LightningStrikesTwice #NoirAlley #TCMParty

“Who loved him enough to kill her, except me.” And Trev thought he was shielding JD.

“But no. You come along with your pretty face.”

“Go on scream! Loraine screamed too!”

Damn. She goes full psycho.

Also, Scott goes back to Cad! #NoirAlley

Oh, our poor hero rushes over to Liza, thinking she can be trusted. Wonder how long before Liza thinks she’s no good…and tries to stove her head in. #NoirAlley #LightningStrikesTwice

A little uneven but still a good time. Also, always good to see Ruth Roman and Mercedes McCambridge in anything

Our mouse roared. Liza crashed her head in. #NoirAlley #LightningStrikesTwice

Oh, I love the way the light hit him under the face before he went after the spider. Just the menace in one brief scene.

Followed by her rushing out. #NoirAlley #LightningStrikesTwice

“I got tired about being murdered every night.” Damn. #NoirAlley #LightningStrikesTwice
