Query: A BLEAK, DEPRESSING NOIR...HURRAY!

"He Walked By Night" is a fine noir that deserves more attention. There is no femme fatale and the the procedural scenes with the cops bog it down a bit, but, the tragic relationship between sociopath Roy and put-upon pantywaist Reeves is facinating. Oh, yes...the film is lit (or rather, un-lit) by a fellow named John Alton who just happens to be the Babe Ruth of noir cinamatographers. There are certain images and angles in this film that will stay with you a long, long time. Also affecting is the rapport Roy has with his little doggie. It is only at these moments that we see that there is human under the killer's visage and it is an touching thing to witness, making it that much more sad when...oops. See the movie.
