Re: Favorite Film Noir
La Bete Humaine, by Renoir, remade as Human Desire by Fritz Lang. Both excellent in their ways; Glen Ford is chilling in his smooth-faced, unblinkingly casual submergence into evil in Lang's version. Both are really good.
Another favorite is Ossessione, the first film made of the novel The Postman Always Rings Twice. Gritty and brilliant, full of longing. Very good stuff.
