Would you guys be interested in something along the same line? And perhaps a bit more Sleuthy :).

The object of the game is to find a film Noir character, who doesn't necessarily need to be a leading character, but not a third footman either, if he doesn't happen to be the murderer :). We need to guess the character's name and the movie he or she appears in. Googling is permitted, and I am the first to admit that I don't remember the names of characters in movies I saw years ago. In any case, it won't help if we don't know what we are looking for. The films should be "real" Noir movies, filmed not earlier than 1940 and not later than 1960.

I'll start:

I am a woman :).

Was the movie filmed before 1945? Is the character we're looking for a female lead? Is she American? Is the director American? Is there a first person narrator?

OK, here goes the shotgun answer.
No; Yes; Yes; Yes; No.

Is ...
a womam character in
a movie prior to 1950,
a female lead
played by an American
directed by an American


Is Not ...
a femme fatale
in a film prior to 1945
with a first person narrator

Lady D has apparently taken a leave. Anyone else out there interested in this?

Here is a freebie to stock the fire. Think 1948.

Everyone else has apparently taken a leave too :).

1948? A shot in the dark, but I'll try: Nora Temple (Lauren Bacall) in "Key Largo". I love the movie.

My dear Lady D! You are awesome, and I love the movie, too. Nora Temple is correct. I thought it might take a bit longer, but well done!

Thank you, Peter, I was surprised myself.

Here's a new task for film noir fans:

He is the secondary lead in this movie, but a very interesting character.
