Halloween is really my season, and I'm already counting the days until it returns. But for now, here are three of my favorite #films set in #December. I highly recommend them! What are yours?

* The Lion in Winter (1968) Perhaps my favorite #film, full stop. ("What shall we hang, the holly or each other?")

* Beware, My Lovely (1952) Brilliant turns by two of the greatest stars of #FilmNoir, #RobertRyan and #IdaLupino.

* Black Christmas (1974) A cult classic for good reason.

#BehindTheScenes
#TheWildBunch (1969)
An aging group of outlaws in 1913 Texas look for one last big score, selling stolen Army rifles to a rogue Mexican general during that country's revolution, as the traditional American West is disappearing around them.

André De Toth's Day of the Outlaw (1959), a fine intelligent complex 50s western. Starts as a typical "ranchers against farmers" story with a romantic triangle and becomes something quite different. Fine performance by Tina Louise.

#Noirvember #filmnoir Act of Violence (1948) belongs to the crazy WW2 vet noir sub-genre. Lots of angst, moral ambiguity and self-pity. An emotional roller-coaster ride and it’s a full-blooded excursion into the noir depths.

Despite Robert Ryan as Nemo, plus wild costume design, “Captain Nemo and the Underwater City” (1969) doesn’t have much to offer, alas.

Ida Lupino TCM alert!

“On Dangerous Ground” (1951), directed by Nicholas Ray, is airing tonight at 10:15pm CDT.

Here’s a nice essay about the film from a film blog at Indiana University: https://blogs.iu.edu/establishingshot/2020/03/16/nicholas-rays-on-dangerous-ground/
