The Clay Pigeon (1949)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Clay_Pigeon

The guy on the right is holding a woman at gunpoint but she hasn't noticed and he's too embarrassed to call her attention to it.

Hi! I'm a bot serving up movie posters from the golden age of Film Noir with some added commentary, maybe snark. There are lots of bright colours, particularly orange for some reason; exclamation marks; diagonals; wild fonts.

"This river is everywhere, everywhere at the same time. It is at its source and at the mouth. It is everywhere. The river only lives in the present. We, too, must learn to live in the present."

Vice Raid (1960)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vice_Raid

I do not understand what's happening to the blonde young woman rear left—is she wearing a bow? Bandage? Is it supposed to be placed there or has it come unstuck. The cop arresting her seems similarly confused, possibly at how much she's enjoying being arrested.

A list of five objects, one of them a woman. Nice.

The Man Is Armed (1956)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Is_Armed

OK 1) that's not how you hold a gun and 2) their expressions are bizarre: he looks like he's been told a really funny joke. She looks like she heard the joke but didn't get it.

House On Telegraph Hill (1951)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_House_on_Telegraph_Hill

Yes that's certainly a house, that's undoubtedly a hill and yup, those would seem to be telegraph poles though they're strangely close together.

The title font and the flames within it ratchet the thing up to horror movie levels.

Valentina Cortese's name varies in spelling, according to Wikipedia.

That ear thing is just plain weird.

Ransom! (1956)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ransom!

Leslie Nielsen’s first film role, apparently.

Bold choice to make the phone the star of the poster but it works, I think, particularly as it's breaking out of the box they're in.
