Directed by Jacques Tourneur, based on the story "Build My Gallows High", Out of the Past (1947) is considered by many historians to be one of the preeminent examples of the Film Noir genre. The convoluted story involves a private detective, a racketeer and a femme fatale in a twisted love triangle. The stark cinematography is brilliant, dark and moody. Robert Mitchum is great in the lead role. Jane Greer is beautiful, sexy and dangerous as the classic Femme Fatale. Kirk Douglas is wonderful in his role as well.
