#163: Elevator to the Gallows (1958) with Eddie Muller

International Month comes to a close with TCM's Czar of Noir joining us once again to talk about his favorite foreign noir: 1958's Elevator to the Gallows. Along the way he touches on the challenges of being a noir in a different language, Jeanne Moreau's performance, and why it's too good a movie to spoil.
