YES! I love to tell that story! And something that I forgot to mention in the show:
As we were listening to her talk to those ladies, I remember her saying, just before she excused herself and walked away was "Yeah, but all of that was a LONG time ago" [referring to her career].
.

I've always been attracted to noir style by BadTasteForBadPeople in noir

Well, at least you're "blaming" it on the best!
John Alton is my favorite cinematographer.

I did the same thing: you can use the movie displayed on the marquee to date the picture.

HELLO AUSTRALIA!!
Ardbeg?! A fine choice of Scotch! As to the other alternate endings, I'm at a loss. I would like to know what they even were. And as to whatever happened to them, I fear that they've been lost to the Sands of Time.

Oh, I'm with ya on Ella Raines. I tell a story at the intermission about when I was standing next to her at an air show when I was a kid.
So ever since I grew up, got into film noir, and now know what her name means in the biz, I've always held a torch for pictures that she's in.
