Pools Of Darkness

In this week’s noir-themed edition of Attaboy Clarence, I’ll be telling you about a trio of shadow-soaked dramas to spice up your Noirvember viewing… Victor Mature goes head-to-head with Laird Cregar in 1941’s ‘I Wake Up Screaming’ Robert Cummings is on the run from the law and from vicious gangsters in 1946’s ‘The Chase’ Kirk Douglas sinks lower than most men in 1951’s ‘Ace In The Hole’ Radio entertainment comes from the mighty quills of both Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler, as we join Sam Spade and Philip Marlowe for two mysterious outings.
