Today's movie is another film noir classic, Impact. Released in 1949 it is about a wealthy businessman that survives an attempt by his wife to have him killed. He makes it look like she succeeded and starts a new life in small town as auto mechanic. A variation on this idea elevated to noir importance by The Killers (1946), where the victim of femme fatale tries to abandon the city and his past identity.
The movie lasts 1 hour 50 minutes. Break out the popcorn and enjoy.
