The Naked City (1948) is a headline frontrunner of the police procedural subset of noirs and crime dramas.

Steyn’s column is is one long spoiler but worth the read anyway unless you’ve never yet seen The Naked City. Your call. Steyn covers in detail the movie’s cast, crew, the origin and production and of course the real star of the movie, New York City.

But watch out now
I'm gonna get there
We'll be together
For just a little while

And then I'm gonna put you
Way down here
And you'll start cryin'
96 tears

I once heard that this captured life in NYC when windows were all open and people yelled out of them to their neighbors. But then A/C came along and now everyone cocooned themselves in their apartments.

Ninety Six, South Carolina, is much safer...much less crime. But fewer stories.
