Same! I'm embracing #filmnoir in other languages, but it's been (admittedly) a slower slog for me as one of the things I adore so much about noir is the slang and words of the classic pulp writers whose work turned into films. I'm getting there!

I'll have to brush up on my French #filmnoir, but yes, sounds tres bien! If we were to open it up to more than French, I would love to host Pale Flower. Otherwise, I have some homework to do ๐Ÿ˜‰. I must confess I spend most of my time in American noir. #filmnoirclub

โ€œKill him! Kill him! Kill him!โ€

BTW, you might have been tempted to think that this woman yelling โ€œKill him!โ€ was a rip-off of The Set-Up, released the same year. Except #TheAccused was filmed six months earlier. #FilmNoirClub
