PITFALL - André de Toth - 1948 - ★★★⭑
---
Fairly conventional in style, this pitfall gets off to a slow start. However, it turns into a film noir with effective writing. Worth discovering.

PITFALL : LE PIÈGE - Andre De Toth - 1948 -★★★⭑

De facture assez classique, ce pitfall-là a un démarrage laborieux. Pour autant, il vire au film noir avec une écriture efficace. A découvrir.

Unusually gratifying #geocaching session: avenged two caches, one on my fourth visit, another scant centimetres away from where partner last searched, and a solved Unknown 25 metres out from stated coordinates.

Two of these hadn't been signed in years. Also found a geocache by reach and not by 'required tree-climbing'.

Also had a #DickPowell double bill: "Blessed Event" (1932) and "Murder, My Sweet" (1944).

“You were voted the prettiest girl in the class. I was voted the boy most likely to succeed. Something should happen to people like that.”
