Rewriting the Noir Canon: Step 1, Toss It Out
Straw Cats

I’ve never seen this film before, so I watched it with the sound off and was amazed by the footage. You’re right about this film being the work of a pro — incredible use of light and shadows. It works SO WELL as a silent film.

Great video commentary, too, with lots of great points raised. I’m so glad you presented this film. Thanks for broadening my horizons!
