The child actors in Hunter aren't particularly outstanding, are they?

Ha ha! My dad had a bit part in this flick.

They should have bumped him up to the main role.

I prefer their amateurism (especially in the film's hyper-fussy context) to creepy, polished Dakota Fanning school of kid performances. Of course, I prefer root canal to that also.

Yeah, if the kids were Shirley Temple types, the Preacher's plot would have been uncovered within five minutes.

Unless there is a typo, they got Stanley Cortez to DP when they did a TV remake in 1991.

five years pass...

Rewatched OOTP for the first time in awhile. Forgot all about Jose Rodriguez.

Is the black-coated enforcer, Paul Valentine, real good in anything else? This was his debut.

Besides Kirk Douglas, Rhonda Fleming and Dickie Moore are still living.

Mitchum and Jane Greer did a parody on SNL in '87, Out of Gas! You can see it if you have HuluPlus.

Weird, I was just looking at the thread ten minute ago while searching through the Noir threads and was afraid I had accidentally revived it.

Speaking of Rhonda Fleming, I went back to the 8:00 at MoMa to see Tennessee's Partner and intending to see Slightly Scarlet today or tomorrow.

Want to see the other two today, Silver Lode and Sands of Iwo Jima, so may go to SS tomorrow.

Is there a way to win?
Well, there's a way to lose more slowly.

RIP, Dickie Moore. Just looked for the SNL parody, did not find. Looks like various seasons are missing, maybe?

I get the idea Jose Rodriguez is flirting with Mitchum and Douglas and waiting to see who takes the bait
