In this episode, Kari Hansbarger joins me to discuss the brilliant boxing film noir, 99 River Street (1953), directed by Phil Karlson, and starring John Payne and Evelyn Keyes.

Kari describes herself as a classic film buff, which was a passion she inherited from mum. She also grew up watching boxing with my father, so this podcast sits right at the intersection of both of those interests. She has been a fan of film noir since she was in college in the 1990s and now co-hosts live film noir watch parties on Bluesky every week.
