2022 movie #172. 1955. Brutal PI, Mike Hammer, rescues a woman running barefoot down a deserted road and finds himself in a mystery involving nuclear secrets, including a box which emits a blinding, burning light when opened. Film debut of Cloris Leachman, the barefoot babe.

2020 movie #164. 1951. After beating one too many suspects, tough NYC cop (Ryan) is sent upstate to help in a small town murder investigation where he finds redemption and love in the blind sister of the suspect (Lupino). Pretty good with an unusually happy ending for a noir.
