Noir Nook

Pre-Code Films with Film Noir Flavor ? Part 2 Next to film noir, my favorite era of filmmaking is pre-Code ? and it?s no wonder that I?m so fond of these pictures ? so many of them served up plots that would have made near-perfect film noirs. In my Noir Nook for July 2026, I took a look at five p......

Silver Screen Standards

Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943) I?m always impressed at just how many Frankenstein movies Universal turned out between 1931 and 1948, and I?m also deeply entertained by the studio?s mix and match approach to making those pictures where its stars were concerned. It might not make for the be......
