    About this audiobook

    In this second volume of Nightbeat, Frank Lovejoy stars as hard-nosed Chicago Star newsman Randy Stone, a reporter who looks for the human stories behind the headlines. Lovejoy's distinctive voice and manner, combined with excellent scripts and performances by radio veterans like Lurene Tuttle, Peter Leeds, and Jeff Corey, give the series an unusual and engrossing style - literally film noir for the mind. One week the story is lighthearted and tongue-in-cheek, the next it is tragic with a down-beat ending. Tthere are suspenseful races, and quiet reflections on everyday life among the masses. Through it all Stone, in a sensitive portrayal by Frank Lovejoy, narrates the story and comments on it from beginning to end, often with a hard-edged cynicism that covers his personal sense of fairness and morality.

      From Seven To Gone Girl: Writers On Their Favourite David Fincher Movie

      More than The Silence of the Lambs, Seven launched a mostly risible trend of late 90s serial killer thrillers that mimicked Fincher’s grimy neo-noir style and the invariably disgusting fetishes that spice up the villain’s dossier. Yet none of the fil

      I’m 73 years old, and I’m watching 60-year-old episodes of The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp, with Hugh O’Brian, who died at 91 in 2016. The show’s adviser was Stuart Lake, who tended to glorify Earp’s life in his book [Wyatt Earp: Frontier Marshal].
