 Rating:  - One of the essential film noirsThe Blue Dahlia is a quintessential film noir, one of the great films that defined the genre. Army men return from World War II to find their wives drunk and cheating with scumbag jazz club owners. Whether this film has not been released on DVD in the U.S. is quite curious, considering almost every film noir has been burned onto DVD in various collections of the genre. My guess is that Turner owns the film, and hopes to air it only on TCM, or the potentially racist comment in the film has people ...

Read More Rating: - A Great Los Angeles Oriented Film NoirAppropriately compared and contrasted to "Double Indemnity" (1944), Raymond Chandler's other great Los Angeles oriented film noir screenplay, "The Blue Dahlia" (1946) shows a part of Los Angeles a bit further down on the socio-economic peeking order. Lower middle class LA is a world of "neighborhood bars and bungalow courts". Post war Los Angeles is not sunny California but a shadowy labyrinth whose denizens are in love with the night. The title character is not a reference to Elizabeth Short, who would ... Read More Rating: - A Reel Picture of 40's Los Angeles: A Historical Gem.The Blue Dahlia is on my top ten list of greatest American films ever made. The superb cast is so close in age and demographic to the tenor of the times that every line written by Chandler is delivered with an almost exacting reality of both mythical movie America and the very real horror of men dealing with postwar paranoia in the real world. The villains are ugly sleazy men who run the city of L.A. and were draft dodgers for whom WWII was nonexistent. In this Noir landscape they stumble around an L.A. ...
