#they made me a fugitive

[boxcarwild]

They Made Me a Fugitive (also known as They Made Me a Criminal; U.S. title: I Became a Criminal) is a 1947 British film noir directed by Alberto Cavalcanti and starring Sally Gray and Trevor Howard. It was written by Noel Langley, based on the 1941 Jackson Budd novel A Convict Has Escaped. Cinematography was by Otto Heller.

“I loved They Made Me a Fugitive," says director Wes Anderson. "The grittiness and the style and the great, great dialogue. It’s very good, and very hard. The violence of the language is much more blunt than you’d ever expect. Trevor Howard is great".

"Another thing that intrigued me about They Made Me a Fugitive was that it always seemed like it was going to veer into pure expressionism," says Anderson. "That expressionist current of feeling combines with the location shooting and the type of story being told, the rawness of it all, to give the movie a documentary-ish flavor. It’s a strange combination. And the dialogue is so graphic and blunt. It’s not just hard-boiled, it’s kind of funny, and I think they meant it to be?”

Threat Assessment and Risk Assessment react to Murderbot taking unexpected damage.

[ID: A short comic drawn digitally in shades of red. At the top is an alert banner that reads “ALERT. PERFORMANCE RELIABILITY DROP. MINOR DAMAGE SUSTAINED. !!UNPREDICTED!!” Panel 1 shows the humanoid feedsonas of Threat Assessment (TA) and Risk Assessment (RA) looking slightly upwards in surprise. TA looks confused. Right of that panel is a red panel showing an outline of a humanoid with a red dot on the left side of their torso. Panel 2 shows TA and RA from a different angle, with RA in profile and TA glancing down at it. TA says, “What was that?”. RA replies, “She shot us.” Left of that panel is another red panel, showing a woman with short dreadlocks in a ponytail and a determined expression pointing a recently-fired gun slightly to the left of the POV. Panel 3 shows TA holding a feed panel in each hand, glancing at one with one eyebrow raised. It asks, “The human?”. RA is looking to the left over a spread of four feed panels, its hands drawn up to its chest, looking worried. It replies, “I didn’t see that coming.” Panel 4 has RA looking forwards again, one hand on its arm. It says, “I didn’t account for -” Panel 5 shows TA asking “For what?” The bottom of the image depicts Murderbot standing, its back to Human One, who is pointing a smoking gun at it. They are in bright red against the black background, unbound by a panel box. A white streak slashes across the image from Human One’s gun, through Murderbot’s back. Red text underneath them reads “For us still being the monster.” /end ID]

sorry i'm still on about this but i have to say. it's a little (read: a lot) fucked up that they had thirteen call the fugitive doctor's shirt ugly or whatever when her shirt is literally made from kente cloth.

I read an article once where a DW costume designer was talking about how the Doctor can’t wear green bc it wouldn’t show up against greenscreen and I’m always thinking about that TBH

I love my job roughly 75% of the time. But sometimes it involves chasing down a teen to pay his $200 phone bill that you foolishly helped him open while going through the stages of grief knowing you’re going to have to figure out that payment yourself because you were naïve and trusted him
