the falcon takes over

November 21 movie: The Falcon Takes Over. They've been showing serials during the daytime this whole month on TCM, and Wednesday was The Falcon. This one was based on the Raymond Chandler story Farewell My Lovely. Which I didn't know while I was watching it, leading me to wonder why this story was so much darker and grittier than every other Falcon story I'd seen. There's good supporting work from James Gleason and Allen Jenkins.
