Woohoo! #CryOfTheCity on #NoirAlley. Can't wait. #TCMParty
OK, I did not have 'defenestration' in my #NoirAlley bingo for this film. #TCMParty #PostmarkForDanger
Allison is charming, but dim. And the noir blinds kick in just as she's targeted for murder.
When the WPC asks to accompany you, say "Yes!" Makes it harder for the killer to bump both of you off.
Well, looks like Dave isn't the killer. Wonder if it's Jill's fancy pants boy?
Forensic montage! Drink! #NoirAlley #TCMparty #PostmarkForMurder
"Somewhere in South America." <Smuggler's Blues begins to play>
Oh, and the postcard arrives... #NoirAlley #TCMParty #PostmarkForDanger
At least she left her clothes and passport.
And now the bodies are starting to pile up. Think Daddy Dearest is next for a few coughs from a Webley. #NoirAlley #TCMparty #PostmarkForDanger
Yep. Dave's in on the ring. and likely it's enforcer. He killed the reporter, likely killed Jill thinking she was Allison, and rigged his own brother's death.
"Whatever you do, don't check that room before the police arrives."
And I'm betting Dave's in on the smuggling: #NoirAlley #TCMParty #PostmarkForDanger
Interesting. Like the small detail changes.
And Tim is a damn sucker for a pretty face. #NoirAlley #TCMParty #PostmarkForDanger
"He's my father. I've got to give him a chance." No, you don't!
And damn, Tim. Fancy meal right after she comes back from the dead. Gentleman has moves. #NoirAlley #TCMParty #PostmarkForDanger
Right, so the police are not only convinced he killed Jill, but that he also has the postcard. They tried to sting him and failed.
And then Laura, er, Allison shows up... #NoirAlley #TCMparty #PostmarkForDanger

"She moved in Bohemian circles." Ah, that's mid-century Brit for 'brazen strumpet.'
Yeah, fancy boy is in on whatever this is. Bootlegging? The UK was just out of rationing when this was made, wasn't it?
"Your Mr. Smith left his hotel this afternoon." Never trust anyone named Smith or Johnson. First rule of any old-school Shadowrun player. #NoirAlley #TCMparty #PostmarkForDanger
I've never seen a bottle of Chianti revealed with so much dread outside of a Hannibal Lector reference.
And it's also getting the Manhunter treatment by marks and symbols. #NoirAlley #TCMparty #PostmarkForDanger
