#like even though the 41 maltese falcon film is the most popular and its other actors are mostly synonymous with the roles they played

I finally saw stranger on the third floor(kinda, the version I watched was of a very poor quality)
The movie as a whole was ok, but wow! I love the stranger. Also Joe Briggs
#stranger on the third floor#the stranger#joe briggs#i actually couldnt have watched it at a better time#ive been toying with the idea of a series of drawings of fusions between peter lorre characters and characters from silent films#and for some reason the idea of fusing the stranger and cesare from TCODC really jumps out to me#also im so sad there wasnt more of poor joe#obviously as a big peter lorre fan i feel like he was underutilised for how talented he was#but compared to some other very talented actors who were really fucked over by the industry i feel like peter was pretty lucky#at least hes remembered today and even with the respect he deserved by some people#at least peter was always credited and billed somewhere on promotional stuff for his films#even if his name wasnt always as high up or prominently featured as it should be#compared to some other pretty talented people Peter did wrll for himself#Idk i really like Elisha cook jr and I think he deserves to have the parts he played remembered more#like even though the 41 maltese falcon film is the most popular and its other actors are mostly synonymous with the roles they played#I feel like when most people think of wilmer they think of dwight frys portrayal#and im sure he did a great job with the character aswell#but it makes me kinda sad as someone who thinks ECJ does a great job with his scant screentime#but anyway joe was fun#and i hope both he and the stranger survived#and put all that nonsense behind them and became friends
