Audrey Totter passed away this week at the age of 96. To most of you this won’t mean much. But in reading her obituary it mentioned that she played femme fatale roles in the 1940s and 1950s noir movies, including a bit part in The Postman Always Rings Twice, which I recently saw. I do remember her part. So, I picked the most noir photo I could find for this post.
Included in her list of movies was Lady in the Lake based on a Raymond Chandler novel, The Unsuspected, High Wall and Tension. Beginning in the 1950s, she worked mostly in TV.
So, in addition to the remaining movies on my Dani Noir list, I have several more to watch. This whole noir thing may become a lifelong pursuit.
