One of my fave noirs ever.
It may be bright in look but to me its still very much a noir, and as you say very dark at heart concentrating on suspicion, doubt and inner demons. Bogart is immense as Dixon Steele (surely his porn star alter ego) and Gloria Grahame is the best i've ever seen her.
A far better film than the majority of the better known classics of the genre.
Good call MTDS.
