This one's gonna get dicey.

Totally checking this out. LOVE 40s noir, love 30s and 40s horror. I go all tumescent over dry ice and chiaroscuro lighting.

Gene Hackman.

The second bit got a full on guffaw from me.

To bad they couldn't get him lined up for the role in time. Sadly that idea went off the rails a long time ago.
