The Lady From Shanghai (1948) 

This should be remade with a "ask me" instead of Orson Welles. Many tidbits throughout the movie make it a surprising watch. Most? of the characters seem very real. The movie is dark. The plot is definitely not easy. Welles can't avoid some overt mental gymanstics, an excessive brogue, and there's odd camera work. This will ruin the movie if you are just too awake. 6 of 7 stars
