The Crooked Way, 1949, (starring John Payne, director Robert Florey) isn’t one of the great and celebrated noirs. It’s not the most convincing film of its time either, and fails to deliver the levels of paranoia that the great noir dramas do. It doesn’t feature a detective but follows the story of a much truer noir archetype — the WWII veteran, and his struggle to readjust to civilian life. Still the movie should be better known than it is, as it is one of the truest expressions of another 1940s Hollywood obsession — amnesia.
