Author and noir expert Richie Narvaez (https://www.richienarvaez.com/) joins me to talk the smokiest, most shadow-drenched film ever made,_ Out of the Past. _ The 1947 black and white Robert Mitchum film is considered to be a quintessential noir film. And, as I reveal in the episode, it's an important influence on my podcast. Richie's most recent book is NOIRYORICAN and you can find out how to buy it here (https://downandoutbooks.com/bookstore/narvaez-noiryorican/). UPDATE: The Bogart/Bacall movie Richie mentions in passing is "Dark Passage."
