'The Maltese Falcon' Movie and 4K Review

The following review was written by Ultimate Rabbit correspondent, Tony Farinella. “The Maltese Falcon” is a film I imagine I will enjoy a lot more on a second viewing, as this was my first time watching it. The reason I say this is because there are a lot of moving pieces in this film, and it is never boring.  However, at times, I found myself trying to follow the story and the plot instead of…

Hoarse

harsh, grating

when the sun sets on Piltover Bay

the children go home to bed where they lay

mothers and fathers tuck them in tight

and say and say goodnight

Lux is an idiot. She is a fool. She is moronic, brainless, and masochistic. She is standing in front of Jinx’s room. Except, of course, it’s not a room. It’s a cell - a completely impenetrable cell, with no apparent weaknesses or openings. There’s not even a visible door - just a lineless block of steel-reinforced cement.

Caitlyn’s keen eye would not find a flaw in the wall. But Caitlyn is not a state-sanctioned thief, with a long record of successful heists. Caitlyn is not Lux, capable of seeing the gaps outlining the door and sensing the arcane touch of a sealing array. And above all, Caitlyn would never dream of standing outside Jinx’s cell, with a hand raised to open the door.

when the city quiets at night

and families turn off all of the lights

progress slows down, peace blankets all

even the towers tall

Given all the security measures in place to ensure Jinx’s containment, nothing can escape the cell’s confinement. And yet, somehow, Lux hears a song, faint and sweet, through the allegedly impenetrable wall. The voice is thin and rough - not unpleasant, only uncertain.

Except there's no stutter in the lyrics, no half-mumbled gibberish, and the notes weave together without pause or awkward shift. No, the singer simply seems to lack practice. She's used to shouting and screaming insults and threats - exploding jagged jokes to crush and push away all those around her. She's never sweet - never soft and tender - never spilled a sound for the soothing and the dreaming.

star rods turn on and light up the streets

children sleep well and dream of sweet treats

and the monsters across Piltover Bay

will stay - will stay away

And Lux really should not be here. Jinx cleared out after Lux stupidly confessed her feelings. That's a blatant rejection. That’s a giant sign with neon lights spelling out: NO. That’s a radio broadcast to all of Runeterra, explaining in painful detail all the ways Jinx just isn’t into her. Lux should take the fucking hint and leave Jinx alone.

So, Lux dispels the sealing array and opens the door. Whoever said that she’s a genius, they fucking lied.

Lux Radio Theater (It's A Wonderful Life)

Lux Radio Theatre was a classic radio anthology series, was broadcast on the NBC Blue Network (1934–35) (owned by the National Broadcasting Company, later predecessor of American Broadcasting Company [ABC] in 1943–1945); CBS Radio network (Columbia Broadcasting System) (1935–54), and NBC Radio (1954–55). Initially, the series adapted Broadway plays during its first two seasons before it began adapting films. These hour-long radio programs were performed live before studio audiences. The series became the most popular dramatic anthology series on radio, broadcast for more than 20 years and continued on television as the Lux Video Theatre through most of the 1950s. The primary sponsor of the show was Unilever through its Lux Soap brand.

I LOVE that we ended up having the same favorite companion, Raul is the best!!

YESSSSSSS 🤝!!!!! RAUL REALLY IS THE BEST!!!!!! I LOVE HIM AND HIS STORY SO MUCH!!!!!!!!

His line before the Second Battle of Hoover Dam made me AN EMOTIONAL MESS ( ᵒ̴̶̷̥́ _ᵒ̴̶̷̣̥̀ )!!!!!!

I’M HIJACKING THIS ASK TO RAMBLE ABOUT MY HEADCANONS INVOLVING RAUL!!!

• He’s AroAce

• When upgrading the Presidential Suite in the Lucky 38, Madison (Courier Six) gets the Sunset Sarsaparilla Vending Machine just for Raul. While it comes out of her pay Mr. House restocks it regularly.

• Raul and her both LOVE and bond over sweets. In the beginning Raul would play the 😔 “At my age this might be my last chance to enjoy something sweet” card. It worked every-time on her.

• When Raul gets bubble gum he gives her the temporary tattoo it comes with. Madison hands them out to kids she encounters on her travels (Freeside, The Boomers ETC.)

• She indulges Raul’s sweet tooth to the point he has to go see Dr. Usanagi to get a bad cavity fixed and a few teeth implants.

• Raul teaches her about basic weapon repair. However not enough that she doesn’t need him.

• Together they collect the Star Sunset Sarsaparilla Caps. While not surprised they're both disappointed by the reward. Raul keeps the Pew Pew gun while Madison gives the toy deputy badges to kids.

Afterwards they continue to collect the Star Sunset Sarsaparilla Caps. Inside the Lucky 38 there’s a jar filled with them.

• Out of all the human companions, Raul is the one Madison trusts the most. She will privately discuss Mr. House's plans and what he wants her to do. Madison loves all her companions but knows not everyone would support the actions Mr. House deems necessary. Madison believes once they see the results, they’ll understand. Which obviously isn't the case.

Other companions are uncertain, but Raul is completely aware how loyal Madison is to Mr. House.

Arcade is the best example saying, “I have to say I don't understand where you're going with Mr. House. The man's been manipulating the locals for as long as anyone can remember. If you help him kick the NCR and Legion out, he's going to keep right on doing it. The people in Freeside will be just as bad off as they ever were. If you can find a way to push Mr. House out of the picture as well, I think everyone will be better off."

• Before Raul leaves for his own journey post game, Madison gives him a custom medal. She designed it but commissioned Michael Angelo to make it. It’s something Raul always wears.

• Although Raul becomes the Ghost-Vaquero who hunts down those who prey on the weak. Raul still makes it a point to visit her from time to time. He knows she’d miss his beautiful face.

• While unintentional when Raul visits they ALWAYS end up taking a nap together. They’ll be sitting on one of the couches talking then BOOM knocked out. Old habits die hard.

• Since Madison’s medicine skill is really high she’ll massage Raul and try to help him with his pain.

• Speaking of which after the Second Battle of Hoover Dam Madison’s first luxury purchase is renting out the ENTIRE Ultra-Luxe Casino’s bathhouse.

I imagine they don't typically allow Ghouls in there so she uses this chance to try and help Raul.

Since soaking in salt water has a lot of benefits for your health like easing muscle cramps, relieving stiffness in joints, back pain ETC. She wants to show Raul her appreciation for everything he’s done for her. Also they’re both extremely sore after that huge battle.

I’m not sure if the saltwater used in the Ultra-Luxe Casino is sterile but if it is it’d also be good for any open wounds Raul might have as a Ghoul.

• Madison offers to cover the entire cost for Raul to be put in a chamber similar to Mr. House’s. However he rejects her offer. When Raul eventually dies she broadcasts a recording of a mariachi band through every radio. She doesn't announce his death wanting the legend of the Ghost-Vaquero to live on forever.

This exchange perfectly describes their bond:

Madison: "Come, Raul, adventure awaits!"

Raul: "Sorry boss, but as much as I'd like to risk getting killed by your side, you seem to already have some help." or "Words cannot contain my excitement at the chance to throw myself headlong into danger with you again, boss."

POC!Reader “Lux” x Walter Marshall

Summary:

Loving a man like Walter Marshall is not for the faint of heart.It's always one step forward and three steps back.I'd leave you, but the rollercoaster's all I've ever had.Yeah, it's one step forward and three steps back.Do you love me, want me, hate me?Boy, I don't understand.No, I don't understand.

Warnings:

18+ Only MDNI. Angst and Feels, Anger, Established Relationship, Complicated Relationships, Memories, Female Character of Color, Implied Sex

Notes:

This fic is heavy inspired by Olivia Rodrigo's "1 step forward, 3 steps back" Lux means light in Latin. Reader is written as someone in their 30s. You are welcome to age her up or down as you so choose. But as a proud woman in her late 30s I wanted this reader to reflect the experience and wisdom that comes with age. *There is no chronological order to the memories* might mess around and make a part two

Called you on the phone today. Just to ask you how you were. All I did was speak normally. Somehow, I still struck a nerve.

That was three days ago.

Three days since I was rushed off the phone with a “I don’t have time for this Lux.” Stated in a bitter, biting tone. Followed by the click of a disconnected call.

Three days since I allowed the venom soaked in those words to paralyze me. Keeping me locked within the walls of my apartment. Uncaring of venturing out into the world at large.

Three days of my hands coated in splatters of paint as I tried to control the chaos of my own mind.

Three days of drowning in my own traitorous thoughts. Flashbacks of important moments filtering through like unedited film. A replay of the emotional rollercoaster I’ve been through all because I love him.

Three days of radio silence while he throws himself deeper into yet another case.

As I feel the dried paint between my fingers begin to crack, I’m inundated with a broadcast of our amorous trials once more.

"if you're going to stand there, i'm putting you to work. hand me that knob." lux stood in front of her "broadcasting" table, fumbling with the so-called radio that laid in front of her. she was normally pretty good at fixing things, but this one stumped her. and it was not making her happy. "come on, come on. it's on the table with all the other parts. follow you heart. you know which one." she waved her hand in the general direction, offering little to no help to which of the thirty pieces that laid on the table she actually needed.

The Screen Guild Theater production of Casablanca, broadcast on April 26, 1943.

There is also a Lux Radio Theatre production of it (broadcast: January 24, 1944) but that one features Ladd and Lamarr in the lead roles instead of Bogart and Bergman.

I hope you enjoy it!
