TCM’s Film Noir of the Week Saturday Night-Sunday Morning at Midnight and 10 a.m. ET is Casque d’Or (1952) with Simone Signoret and Serge Reggiani.
David in TN: Eddie Muller this week picks a French film I’ve never heard of set in 1900s Paris.
Earlier Saturday at 6:30 p.m. TCM shows Anthony Mann’s Side Street (1950), a pretty good Noir set in Manhattan, New York City. It has one of the first car chases.

TCM's Film Noir of the Week Saturday Night-Sunday Morning at Midnight and 10 a.m. ET is Blake Edwards' Experiment in Terror (1962) with Glenn Ford, Lee Remick, Stephanie Powers, Ross Martin.
Experiment in Terror is out of the Noir cycle, being made in 1962. It's not listed in Film Noir Guide. Eddie Muller likes it because it takes place and was filmed in his home town of San Francisco.
A sadistic killer (Martin) uses a campaign of terror to force San Francisco bank teller (Remick) to steal $100,000 from the bank for him. She calls the FBI who send a Special Agent (all FBI agents are called "Special Agent") to take charge of the case. Glenn Ford plays the agent.
