Director:

Nicholas Ray Why it fits: This is arguably the cornerstone of the Ramba Old Blue library. Humphrey Bogart plays a screenwriter with a volcanic temper. The film is set against the backdrop of Hollywood’s midnight parking lots and shadowy bungalows. The color (black and white here) is rendered in deep, velvety blues and charcoal grays. It is a slow, painful dance of paranoia and romance. Guide to Discussing or Analyzing Old Film Clips
