j f The blank face model triggering memories is a bit of a stretch, but RKO B’s rarely disappoint. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/12/24 Full Review Audience Member Though RKO Radio had trouble turning out successful "A" pictures in the late 1940s-early 1950s, the studio's "B" productions were the best in the business. One of the best was 1949's strange, obsessive film noir Follow Me Quietly, which manages to pack more excitement and sheer entertainment value in 59 minutes than most big-budgeters can accomplish in twice that time. Detective Harry Grant (William Lundigan) is assigned to track down "The Judge," an unknown serial killer. With only a handful of sketchy clues, Grant constructs a faceless dummy to help his men conduct their investigation. The film's "money scene" finds the murderer quietly taking the dummy's place, right under the noses of the entire police force! Logic is not the film's strong suit, but Follow Me Quietly builds carefully to a dynamite finale filmed on location at an LA refinery (shades of White Heat!) Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Tight low budget film noir from director Richard Fleischer. The film plays out mostly like a police procedural about a police detective is on the hunt for a vicious self styled killer who's named himself "The Judge," placing himself in judgement of the citizens of New York. The film is incredibly short, combining in at just under one hour, which makes it pretty no nonsense. Not a classic, but pretty entertaining and well made.
