In this episode of the show we are embarking on the 11th mini-run of the year and we are contributing to the tradition of observing Noir-Vember. On this occasion, we will spend the entire month talking about films directed by John Dahl – The John Dahl Fall, so to speak. And we begin our deliberations with Dahl’s 1989 debut Kill Me Again. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about the ways in which Dahl’s movie adds to the noir tradition, how it executes on the genre playbook and whether it attempts to subvert any of its staples. We also position the film within the wave of neo-noir sweeping the medium at the time, if the movie had enough star power to stand out in the busy release slate and if it needed some extra oomph to become more noticeable.

Tune in and enjoy!
