Episode 181 - A Simple Plan
Sadly, the case closes on this Noirvember. But, we have one more bullet in the chamber and that bullet has A Simple Plan written all over it.
In the shadows of '98, a celluloid masterpiece emerged, swathed in the seductive embrace of noir's enigma and ethical quandaries. A Simple Plan transcended mere cinema; it plunged deep into the murky abyss of the human psyche.
Director Sam Raimi, a maestro of the visual canvas, conjures a hauntingly picturesque scene. The snow-laden backdrop becomes a mirror, reflecting the characters' ever-distorting moral compasses. Bill Paxton, Billy Bob Thornton, and Bridget Fonda, leading players in this grim narrative, find themselves ensnared in a moral maze where trust and fidelity are precious commodities.
Step into the dimly lit sanctum as we welcome listener, Patrick Smith, to our rendezvous. Together, we'll unravel the mystery etched into the celluloid fabric of this noir opus. Let's dissect Raimi's directorial finesse, savor Billy Bob Thornton's Academy Award nominated performance, and unearth the thematic elements that etch A Simple Plan into the pantheon of timeless film noir.
In the world of noir, every tale is a moral labyrinth, and A Simple Plan stands as our guiding beacon through the murky waters of fate.
A Simple Plan is directed by Sam Raimi and stars Billy Bob Thorton, Bill Paxton, Bridget Fonda, Brent Briscoe, Gary Cole, Chelcie Ross and Becky Ann Baker.

Episode 180 - Narrow Margin (1990) and The Narrow Margin (1952)
The city was draped in Noirvember's shroud, and Not a Bomb was the beacon in this murky storm. In sauntered Sophia from the Moviestruck podcast, a siren with a penchant for unraveling tales buried in shadows. Deception, detectives as sharp as whiskey, dames with allure as lethal as a bullet, thugs with a dime-a-dozen sneer, and the haunting symphony of trains set the stage for our rendezvous.
We were all set for a tango in the darkness, dissecting two classics that echoed through time, a clash of eras bathed in secrets. '90s Narrow Margin and its '52 predecessor, The Narrow Margin, each holding court in their own epoch. The former—a flop, a silver screen misfire, while the latter—a darling of the Academy, embraced universally by critics.
But here's the kicker, dear listeners: will our novice sleuths echo the choir of critics or dance to a newer tune? Will they find solace in the nostalgic embrace of '52 or dare to crave the thrill of something fresher?
Take a seat, for this discourse will have your nerves as taut as a piano wire. The air was thick with anticipation, charged with the essence of unraveling mysteries, secrets, and the palpable taste of suspense. Not a Bomb was ready to detonate the truth behind these cinematic enigmas, and Sophia was our guiding light through the labyrinth of twists and turns. Buckle up, for this discussion was set to be a ride along the edges of your seat, a thrill that Noirvember couldn't contain.
Narrow Margin is directed by Peter Hyams and stars Gene Hackman, Anne Archer, James B. Sikking, J.T. Walsh and M. Emmet Walsh.
The Narrow Margin is directed by Richard Fleischer and stars Charles McGraw, Marie Windsor and Jacqueline White.
