This atmospheric shot of the light shining from Los Angeles City Hall across a very film-noir-y downtown. It was taken from Bishops Road near what is now Dodgers Stadium, circa 1931. If we look closely, I’m sure we can see Barbara Stanwyck in a blonde wig, her heels clicking on a sidewalk slick with rain . . .
And yes, I can see and hear Barbara and Claire Trevor and Gloria Grahame and all the other noir dames with dangling cigs and rat-a-tat-tat noir banter!
Just love your posts and look forward to them every day.
This is stunning and very noir!
