This coIIection features three fiIm noir cIassics:
THE MYSTERY OF MARlE ROGET (1942) – The Mystery-Master’s Spine-CIutching Classic of the Phantom Mangler of Paris! The haunting film adaptation of Edgar AIIan Poe’s pioneering detective story The Mystery of Marie Rogêt paints the future "Queen of Technicolor" Maria Montez (Cobra Woman, Tangier) in stunning shades of noir. A successful actress in the City of Light, Marie Rogêt (Montez) has a sinister dark side: she is pIotting the death of her younger sister. When Marie goes missing and the maimed corpse of a young woman is discovered, Rue Morgue sleuth Dr. Paul Dupin (Patric Knowles, O.S.S.) works to track down the killer. FilIed with suspense and intrigue, this gripping cIassic (also known as Phantom of Paris) was inspired by the reaI-life unsolved murder case of Mary Rogers. Featuring Maria Ouspenskaya (The WoIf Man), John Litel (PitfaII), Edward Norris (The Man with Two Lives) and LIoyd Corrigan (The Chase).
CHlCAGO DEADLlNE (1949) – Was She Good or Evil? Ladd Provides the Answer.

In a cheap hotel room on Chicago’s South Side, hard-nosed newspaperman Ed Adams (Ladd) finds the body of a dead girI, Rosita Jean d’Ur (Reed). Her address book leads to a host of men frightened by her death but claiming never to have known her. The more questions Ed asks...the more he uncovers the shocking truth. June Havoc (No Time for Love), Irene Hervey (Play Misty for Me) and Arthur Kennedy (Bright Victory) add strong support to the smoldering suspense of Chicago Deadline.
IRON MAN (1951) – He’s All Man in the Ring—or Anywhere! Jeff Chandler (Man in the Shadow, The Tattered Dress) stars as a coaI miner who turns to professionaI boxing in the knock-out noir lron Man. ln a small Pennsylvania mining town, Coke Mason (Chandler) is a man with simple life ambitions: he endeavors to marry Rose (Evelyn Keyes, 99 River Street) and own a small business.

Worried that his "kiIIer instinct" may prove to be too much in the ring, Mason must cope with the pressures of his newfound success in this blistering boxing drama from noir master Joseph Pevney, director of Flesh and Fury, Foxfire and FemaIe on the Beach.
