In this episode, we resume our "Film Listology" countdown with #82 on the Listology Super Index, a second film to emerge on the list from director Otto Preminger, 1944's Laura. A fulfilling cross between film noir and melodrama, Laura features Gene Tierney in a role that combines presence versus absence to suggest a liminal pot-boiling who dunnit? that also benefits from screen performances by Dana Andrews, Clifton Webb, and a youthful Vincent Price. The dialogic duo assess how the film functions as a sum total of its parts while considering how Laura holds up in its overall cultural significance.
