sovay: (Claude Rains)

I was amazed at noir ex-boxer John Payne, so different from the mild-mannered lawyer he plays in Miracle on 34th Street, and Evelyn Keyes is excellent.

I feel like I need to rewatch Miracle on 34th Street now, because I didn't recognize Payne at all! And I just saw that I had equally forgotten Keyes as the female lead in Here Comes Mr. Jordan, a film I recall otherwise with great affection. It's almost as though I remember romances less vividly than the rest of the movies around them.

Have you seen any of Karlson/Payne's other noirs?
