Out of the past


Out of the past is a film noir about a private detective, Jeff, who was sent by this gangster, Whit, to find his girl Kathy. But Jeff betrays Whit and stays with her. ut Whit gets her later, and through out this movie, Jeff is trying to forget his past and live a happy life. This is the only film noir I have seen of that era. First I thought it wasn't going to be so good, but actually it was not bad at all. I liked characters of Jeff and Kathy. Jeff was an invincible guy who can knock out a guy with his left hand, and Kathy is beautiful and hot chick who does anything to get waht she wants, even kil many times. They were many low key lighting to show the mood of the movie. I wasn't sure in the end if Kathy really loved Jeff, or was just trying to get away. I also liked the ending twist of the film how both Jeff and Kathy died, but the other chick could live a happy life.
