Too Late for Tears Roy Huggins, the creator of The Fugitive, wrote this film noir gem about a satchel full of money mistakenly tossed from a speeding car into the backseat of Jane (Lizabeth Scott) and Alan Palmer (Arthur Kennedy). Against Alan's wishes, Jane wants to hang onto the money, but this greedy femme fatale meets her match when Danny Fuller (Dan Duryea) comes looking for the $60,000 blackmail payoff that was intended for him.
He Walked by Night Shot by OSCAR-winning noir specialist John Alton (An American in Paris), this fact-based documentary-style thriller stars Richard Basehart as the clever and cold-blooded criminal Ray Morgan, alias Roy Martin. An electronics expert, he constantly confounds the police by monitoring their calls and changing his name, m.o. and appearance, but Sgt. Marty Brennan (Scott Brady) won't rest until the cop-killer is caught... or dead.
Kansas City Confidential Phil Karlson (The Phenix City Story) directed this classic of documentary-style noir starring John Payne as an ex-con Joe Rolfe, who has to prove that he was framed for a daring bank heist committed by masked men. Played by three of the screen's greatest heavies, the men - Boyd Kane (Neville Brand), Tony Romano (Lee Van Cleef), and Pete Harris (Jack Elarm) - are blackmailed into pulling the job by Tim Foster (Preston Foster).
