Criterion is releasing Bound (1996) on 4K this June, at least in the US, where it's been unavailable for quite some time. I think it's one of the best, if not the best, neo-noir film I've seen.

Here’s my review from 2022.

Finished watching "The Breaking Point" last night (1950). Liked it much more than I expected, but I pretty much love all noir, so...

The last shot is heartbreaking.

The second film adaptation of #ErnestHemingway 's To Have And Have Not -- the 1944 Bogart/Bacall is of course much more stylish.

I watched it on #criterionChannel but it's apparently available at the #internetArchive -

“Holmes’s stories […] have a surprisingly grounded view of crime, & one that arguably fits better into the hardboiled tradition of Hammett & Chandler than the cozy tradition of Christie.”

—Alexis Hall on Sherlock Holmes as noir icon

The superb Hazbin Hotel has a lot of the same sensibility as my romantic noir urban fantasy series that starts with the Demons of Wall Street.

If that sounds interesting, I'd be happy to send a free ebook on request. You can find the whole series in the usual online shops.
