That was interesting when she emphasized that early in the film!
I could imagine a lesser script using it in the conclusion.
In any case it did sound ahead of its time!

@ladykdesigns.bsky.socialJust knowing you did makes me 😊.

@tommykrasker.bsky.socialI had an entire post about her leopard coat, but it got lost in the editing room. 😅😅😅 #TheNoirCollective
@bitriff.bsky.social"I have to see a friend uptown."
Writing that one down in my excuse notebook.

@ladykdesigns.bsky.socialI'm transfixed by the fashion here. 😵💫

@vanstanwyck.bsky.socialAs someone who was taken to the opera from a very young age, it's crazy to think of the aria Libiamo (Let's Toast) from La Traviata as drinking song that would trigger an alcoholic.

@boolittlek.bsky.socialIt's a meet-rude.

@pmoll.bsky.socialGetting triggered by prop drinks (water?)--interesting illustration of the addicted psyche.
@tommykrasker.bsky.socialGiven Brackett & Wilder’s background writing screwball (e.g., Midnight, Ball of Fire, The Major and the Minor), perhaps it’s unsurprising that they give Don and Helen a meet-cute – a meet-cute that a thirsty Don uses to his advantage. #TheNoirCollective #TheLostWeekend
@tommykrasker.bsky.socialThe character of Helen doesn’t exist in Jackson’s novel; Brackett and Wilder added her as an ally and love interest – but in particular, to speak to alcoholism as a disease rather than a moral failing, a position that even the AMA itself wouldn’t adopt until 1956. #TheNoirCollective #TheLostWeekend
@ctmillion.bsky.social#TheLostWeekend is probably the Wilder/Seitz collaboration that is closest to film noir’s roots in German Expressionism, as evidenced by the various hallucination sequences, done by veteran special effects man Gordon Jennings. #TheNoirCollective
@celluloidsoul.bsky.socialI love that HIS flashback fade is HAZY

@vanstanwyck.bsky.socialI remember when The Addams Family movie came out seeing an interview with the guy who played Thing. He was a professional magician. The dexterity of his finger movements got him the job above hand models, actors, etc. Milland's finger movements are agile like that. #TheLostWeekend #TheNoirCollective
@tommykrasker.bsky.socialThey did the preview with a jazzy temp track, and it was a disaster. That was a common studio procedure – using a temp track that had no relation to what was actually going to be composed – and I have no idea why they did it. 🤷♂️🤷♂️ #TheNoirCollective
