RARA-AVIS: KISS ME DEADLY and Segue to Block

KISS ME DEADLY is as great example of noir film technique, it seemed to explore every noir trick. And in the end Hammer is truly screwed. How many days, weeks, or months would Mike Hammer had lived after his final incident with radio activity the beach?

"Essential noir?" kind of like PLAN NINE FROM OUTER SPACE is essential Science Fiction.

Segue--well, more a change to another subject:

Sorry, MRT, my opinions of Block are pretty standard: good stuff, terrific writing, I like everything but his HITMAN stories.

I don't inspire argument. I usually flag things as
"opinion." You can argue if you like, but I shrug and agree to disagree.
