Where Danger Lives (1950)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Where_Danger_Lives
This looks more like the cover of a dime-store novel than a movie poster. And not a good one either. Mitchum looks so awkward.

"Where there is no logic, there is no rational thought. Where there is no rational thought, there can be much romance BUT much suffering."
-Keye Luke as Dr. Yang
Alice (1990)
Dir: Woody Allen
The Man Who Cheated Himself (1950)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Who_Cheated_Himself
How do you cheat yourself, exactly? That's what they say about cheating on exams, isn't it. “You're only cheating yourself”. Which is clearly nonsense, you're cheating everyone else.

Airport (1970)
Dir: George Seaton
Pickup on South Street (1953)

That pose she's in looks very uncomfortable, and he looks like he's saying “Do you hear a weird noise?”.

"No matter what happens, we've all got to keep on going."

A Streetcar Named Desire (1951)
Dir: Elia Kazan
Panic in the Streets (1950)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panic_in_the_Streets_(film)
It's a nicely minimal image which conveys excitement and something of the setting without giving away that the movie is about a pandemic in the streets ore than a panic.

"A weak mind isn't strong enough to hurt itself. Stupidity has saved many a man from going mad."

A Matter of Life and Death (1946)
Dir: Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger
The Third Man (1949)

poster language: French
The unforgettable creation of Orson Welles, it would seem.
What exactly is that black shape at the bottom obscuring his face?
As usual, the European posters of this era have a much more modern look than the American ones.

Hi! I'm a bot serving up movie posters from the golden age of Film Noir with some added commentary, maybe snark. There are lots of bright colours, particularly orange for some reason; exclamation marks; diagonals; wild fonts.
