    Prefer his alternate name: City of Naked, which is a harsher but more direct translation. The storyteller's commentary is tiresome, but it also provides a different point of view. The protagonist is not a character in the story, nor is it New York, the real protagonist is the event itself, a story that takes place in a corner of New York , so that every character falls victim to the story drive. The significance is to reduce the importance and emphasize the grandeur of New...

    NY 40s. Narration feels superfluous when the audience is brain-dead? It should be more appropriate to appear in the director's commentary. A non-fiction detective...

    A bizarre murder case, a murdered beauty, a capable police detective, a witty detective, justice is stretched, and evil is punished. In all genre films that seem to be like this, only the beginning and the end reveal the essence of film noir - the disgusting and filthy rampant under the seemingly...

    A New York City crime story with a crisis between men and women. Packed with God's perspective, the guilt is in the dark, the investigation is in the light, and the storyteller's tone is humorous. Scheduling is much better than Hutoumen. The reasoning is compact and brilliant. Does the connection between the film faucet and the sweeper mean "cleaning"? The panorama of the city is distant and mixed, and the parents of the deceased are like American Gothic. It might look better with a more...

    7. In the post-Citizen Kane era, one of the few films that featured voice and screen appearances (the producer's opening commentary). Matching the cut, although the camera isn't quite as light, it uses depth and staggered lines to achieve a thrilling chase effect. |Then the film generally has two breakthroughs in film noir. 1. A large number of live-action shooting in film noir and a batch of realistic/semi-documentary film styles produced by post-war budget constraints are also called Street...

    A few tidbits, dedicated to my colleagues

    I finished watching "The City That Never Sleeps" and I really liked it. Although it is a 1948 film, there is nothing vague about the depth of the film, the meticulousness and humor in the portrayal of the characters, and the impetus that draws the audience into it. It is produced by tens of...

The Naked City quotes

  • Muldoon: After Niles has been rifling through his valise apparently to check whether a supposed burglar has struck: "He got it didn't they?

    Frank Niles: Looking crestfallen: "No, there's nothing missing. I don't have any valuables".

    Muldoon: Suspiciously: "What were you looking for so hard just now - your BVD's?"

  • Narrator: Another day, another ball of fire rising in the summer sky. The city is quiet now, but it will soon be pounding with activity. This time yesterday, Jean Dexter was just another pretty girl, but now she's the marmalade on 10,000 pieces of toast.
