This week, Paul and Steve chat about the science fiction noir classic, "Blade Runner." They discuss its themes, the questions the film poses, and what makes it a film noir. 

Though many refer to "Chinatown" as a neo-noir, Paul and Steve think it's classic noir with a dark, mean twist. They chat about the film, it's characters, their motivations, and why they think of it as one of the greatest pieces of cinema to emerge from Hollywood. 

The screen sizzles with lust and tension as Lana Turner and John Garfield hatch a murder plot. There's no redemption down this dark alley. Paul and Steve discuss what makes "The Postman Always Rings Twice" such an enduring film noir.

Apologies for the tardiness of this week's episode. Paul and Steve saddle up and take on the western/noir classic, "Pursused," masterfully directed by Raoul Walsh. Starring: Robert Mitchum, Teresa Wright, Judith Anderson, Dean Jagger, Alan Hale, Harry Carey Jr. 

In this episode, Paul and Steve talk about a youthful filmmaking genius cutting his teeth on rock solid noir. The genius was Stanley Kubrick and the film is "Killer's Kiss." 

In this episode, Paul and Steve take another excursion down the side streets to discuss the silent film classic "Blood and Sand," starring Rudolph Valentino. Is it a proto film noir, or a melodrama with a few noirish elements? They discuss this and the life of Valentino.

This week, Paul and Steve discuss a film that some have argued is the very first noir, "I Wake Up Screaming" from 1941. Starring: Victor Mature, Betty Grable, Laird Cregar, and Carole Landis.

In their first (and possibly last) double feature, Paul and Steve once again walk down the wet cobblestone streets of Victorian London for two glorified "gaslight noirs."
