Oh, The Big Combo is great. And that last scene - no spoilers - is one that gets trotted out in any discussion of the cinematography of film noir, and deservedly so.

The very, very last shot? Very noir.
I realised I'd read about this film somewhere when I was young as I'd seen a still of the torture scene. (Which was odd - torture with a radio!)

It is a nice bit of noir. Several copies on Youtube, if anyone fancies a watch:

Thanks for that.  I'll set some time aside this evening to watch it.

I really enjoyed that, thanks. And now I know where Whedon got Fanty and Mingo from.
