Movie rewatch: Tattooed Stranger (1950, Edward Montagne)
It may not be great shakes as a police procedural but it's got one big thing going for it: instead of being shot on Hollywood backlots, this was shot on the streets of Brooklyn. Loved the look of it. 

Movie #2624: Corner Gas: The Movie (2014, David Storey)
One last shot at making a few bucks from Corner Gas. The movie is just like a longer episode of the TV show. Some of the cast members are beginning to look their age. Could have done without this. IMDB rating is 81?

Movie #2097: Made In U.S.A. (1966, Jean-Luc Godard)

This is Jean-Luc Godard meets Donald E Westlake. It is based on the novel "The Jugger" by Richard Stark (Westlake). I looked on the internet to see what Westlake's reaction was to this movie. It appears that his reaction was to block it being shown! Apparently, Godard never paid for the screen rights for the book. And who could blame him? After he had smothered the plot with huge amounts of politics and pop culture, who could ever recognize it?
