One of the four films—along with The Maltese Falcon, Double Indemnity, and Murder, My Sweet—in Nino Frank's 1946 article where he was the first to identify American "films 'noirs'", Laura is sometimes overlooked by newcomers to the genre, but it is every bit a classic and no doubt one of the ten to twenty essential noirs. Preminger and Andrews are often great, but here they are probably at their best. And for Tierney, this is simply another of her many S-tier performances.

A fun one to watch for any Twin Peaks fans- Frost/Lynch lifted lots of small details including... Laura.
