I've been watching them a lot lately. Watched a pretty dark Noir last night called Angel Face this weekend. The movies are all a little cheesy since it's before movie making and acting was so polished, but there are some really good stories. Angel Face had a goat background because Howard Hughes was trying to smash the lead actress who was married, but she gave him the :camby:

So, since she was under contract he had his director ordered to essentially torture her on set. One scene where she gets a "get a hold of yourself" slap teh director kept making her do over and over again. Robert Mitchum got fed up and went over and smacked the director like a bytch and told him "Is THAT how you want me to do it?" :mjlol:

Sands of Iwo Jima was a goat war movie, John Wayne is an a$$hole sergeant in it

Hatful of Rain about a guy addicted to morphine after the Korean war, some gritty shyt but good stories. AMC has great background notes so always listen to their prologues and epilogues.
