TCM’s Film Noir of the Week Saturday Night-Sunday Morning at 12:30 and 10 a.m. et is Vincent Sherman’s The Unfaithful (1947), with Ann Sheridan, Lew Ayres, Zachary Scott, Eve Arden, Steven Geray, John Hoyt and Marta Mitrovich.
Film Noir Guide: “Sheridan plays a wife who was unfaithful to her G.I. husband (Scott) while he was fighting overseas. But before Scott returned from the war, she broke up with her artist lover, who soon began stalking her. One evening, while being assaulted by her ex-lover, Sheridan stabs him to death. She concocts a story about an attempted burglary, which Scott unhesitatingly buys.
“But the investigating homicide detective (Hoyt) has doubts about her tale. When a family friend and divorce lawyer (Ayres) is contacted by a blackmailing art dealer (Geray), who has a bust of Sheridan that was created by her boyfriend, Sheridan begs him to retrieve it. But by then, the greedy extortionist has already sold it to the dead man’s widow (Mitrovich), who’s more interested in revenge than money.
“A loose remake of 1940’s The Letter, The Unfaithful, while overly preachy about cheating wives, is enjoyable thanks to strong performances by Sheridan and Ayres.”
David in TN: Last week in his Outro to Tension, as I predicted Red Eddie Muller (again) wailed about the poor Communist director. He then said, “I know some of you say you are tired of hearing about the blacklist, but I’m going to continue talking about it. It was a very important part of the times. If you don’t like it, have at me on Noir Alley’s twitter and facebook.”
So Red Eddie has been getting some pushback.

The new Twitter: "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss":

Musk has allowed a few high profile Tweeters back on the platform but when asked about Trump, he said the Trump decision has not been made yet.
Musk's new policy is "freedom of speech not freedom of reach".
He adds: “Negative/hate tweets will be max deboosted & demonetized, so no ads or other revenue to Twitter. You won’t find the tweet unless you specifically seek it out, which is no different from rest of Internet.” This is exactly how shadowbans have worked in the past.
Yup, Trump would be wise to continue to build his own social media company, he'll always be one tweet deemed hateful or false from being banned yet again on Twitter.
Now communists blacklist Patriots.

TCM's Film Noir of the Week Saturday Night-Sunday Morning at 12:30 a.m. and 10 a.m. ET is Death of a Cyclist (1955).
This is a Spanish film of supposedly "social realism." A man and woman conducting an illicit affair have a hit and run accident. It was a big hit in Europe at the time but was panned by American critics. Red Eddie Muller will probably claim it was a rebuke of Franco's Spain.
