About
The Locket

Generally I'm only (or mostly) interested in noir when it exudes some sense of the grotesque and weird. (Kiss Me Deadly and Touch of Evil come to mind.) The Locket, though not as great as those two, achieves this same place--from Day's performance, to the "nested" flashback structure, to the whole wedding day/bridal march sequence (the shot up the veil reminds me of a similar scene in Suicide Club). Pretty great.
