#NoirvemberChallenge Day 25 Noirs on a boat. Without question The Breaking Point starring John Garfield, Patricia Neal, Phyllis Thaxter & Juano Hernandez. One of the best films on Micheal Curtiz' resume (which says a lot). It should be more widely known & admired.

#NoirvemberChallenge Day 16 Noir that should be better known. Odd Man Out directed by Carol Reed. Overshadowed by Third Man but is a brilliant man on the run noir. Starring James Mason supported by a great cast esp. Kathleen Ryan as the girl who loves him
