Ghost of the Detective

Vertigo

Kiss Me Deadly


Big Heat

Chinatown

         Now i pass up about twenty-five or thirty thousand of honest gain because i like being a detective, like the work. And liking the work makes you want to do it the best you can. Otherwise there'd be no sense to it. That's the fix i am in. I don't know anything else, don't enjoy anything else, don't want to know or enjoy anything else. You can't weigh that against any sum of money. Money's good stuff. I haven't anything against it.

  1. All great examples to watch or read David and all tortured souls of some type.

  2. Seen or read these many times. The images were well-selected to capture that sense of dispair. You do a wonderful job of work here.
