Woman on the Run ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (1950)

One of the great tough guys of the film noir genre, Dennis O'Keefe, plays a reporter helping Ann Sheridan find her husband who is hiding somewhere in the city after he is the sole witness to a murder. Great ending at a boardwalk amusement park and roller coaster.

The Killer is Loose (1956)

1/2

Violence ⭐⭐⭐ (1947)

Definitely a Poverty Row production: no big names, cheap sets, and short run-time.

A female reporter goes undercover at a corrupt union (or communist?) HQ to get the scoop but gets in a car accident before she can file the big story and winds up with amnesia. Can she get her memory back before she unknowingly blows her own cover? At only 1:12, we'll soon find out!

It looks interesting, so it looked it up, and other sources say they are neo-fascist.

Fall (2022)

I did not expect to like this so much. After a month of horror movies this one actually was scary. Ther are some dumb things in there, but overall I think they got a lot out of this premise. I wonder how this worked in a theatre - probably even better than on my TV. Thanks for the recommendation!

It's appropriately vague as was common for the era, the organization's prime target is to recruit disillusioned WWII vets and fleece them for monthly dues.

They Drive by Night (1940)

1/2

BreakfastClub211 · 11-02-2022, 11:51 PM

The Outfit (2022) - 1/2

Not hard to watch but totally unimpressive at every turn.

BreakfastClub211 · 11-02-2022, 11:53 PM

The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (1977) -

A little bit off pacing wise due to being 3 shorts rolled into one, but it's very sweet and funny.

BreakfastClub211 · 11-02-2022, 11:55 PM

Spy Kids 2 (2002) - 1/2

Passable, but nowhere near as good as the first one.

filmbuffTX · 11-03-2022, 12:42 AM

October Sky (1999)

This has some of my favorite performances from Jake Gyllenhaal, Chris Cooper, and Laura Dern. Awesome soundtrack and score as well. A+ movie!

I finally put up some recommendations. I went back and looked at the first seven months of tracking posts for the challenges and picked ten movies.

Entergalactic (2022)

It's refreshing to see something that is just a story about people falling in and out of love, where nobody is really horrible or *******s about it. This won't blow your mind or anything, it is just a modern day love story with some cool animation. I won't remember it next month, but it was very nice. Thanks for the recommendation, Will!3D.
