Bill Walker - Washington's King Hipster

Found here. Great story about Washington beatniks, Coffee 'N' Confusion and Bill Walker.

R.I.P. Nico

Last thursday T.V's great detective, Peter Falk passed away at the age of 83.
While Falk will be remembered by most as detective Columbo, here at Dreamsville he will always be Nico, the beatnik mobster.
Here's a little scene from The Bloody Brood. You can see more and even watch the whole film here.

The Lineup - Don Siegal - 1958

Recently watched this. From the Noir Classics box set. Not bad, not great. Some nice scenes with San Francisco landmarks. The cops are a little wooden. Eli Wallach is pure evil.
