I have Mildred Pierce on in the background while I sweep the house and do laundry - ah, the glamorous life of a writer! Lol This is one of my fav Crawford films. Her eyes could tell what she was feeling without her having to utter a word! #joancrawford #classicfilm #filmnoir #filmsky

A scene from Mildred Pierce, starring Joan Crawford.

Asphalt Jungle is my go-to but the Kansas City Confidential, The Killing, and Criss Cross are all close behind. #filmnoir

A MAN CALLED ADAM is so raw and so real.

I read “Yes, I Can” (Sammy Davis Jr‘s autobiography) when I was a kid & asked for a Louis Armstrong album when I was 6 years old, but I had not seen this film.

Thank you #filmnoirfoundation for all you do.

Thank you #FilmNoirFoundation for showing the not-quite noir,
A MAN CALLED ADAM (1966)
I was completely blown away.

Sammy Davis Jr’s shockingly brave performance on the big screen — what an effing film it is — see it if you can!
Great cast & dir. by Leo Penn
