Noir November rolls on with one that’s a bit controversial. Clash By Night, Fritz Lang’s 1952 tale of dissatisfaction and adultery starring Barbara Stanwyck, Robert Ryan, and Marilyn Monroe, is often questioned for its noirness. There are hallmark elements of the genre (despair, deception, violence), but it lacks one of the big ones: murder. So while some people think it could be classified as noir, others disagree. Listen to the episode to find out what Mike and Steven think!
