As I noted in my Pre-Code Crazy post a few days ago, this year’s TCM Film Festival extended into May, so I’m recommending a movie for the Film Noir Files that I previously covered here at Shadows and Satin. For this month, I’m pleased to recommend one of my favorite noirs – They Live By Night (1948), airing on May 20th (my high school boyfriend’s birthday!). Farley Granger and Cathy O’Donnell play star-crossed lovers Arthur “Bowie” Bowers and Katherine “Keechie” Mobley, whose desire for a white-picket-fence life is derailed by Bowie’s criminal past. Click HERE to check out my previous coverage of the film – and don’t forget to pop over to Speakeasy to see what Kristina is serving up for the month!
