I watched it on Hulu several weeks back. Pretty good movie. It's ironic, I have all of the Fox Noir series on DVD (except Boomerang, I was too slow in getting it while it was available), and there are several I still haven't watched. But I sat there in front of my computer and watched all of Boomerang (commercials and all). I guess I figured they may eventually remove it and I'd better watch now in case that happens.

It's what we in Australia call a stick. (sorry, I couldn't resist that one).

I was lucky to pick up a copy a while back. Terrific flick and I have watched it several times now.

Dana Andrews is such an underrated leading man of film noir.

nm, Netflix seems to have removed Boomerang. I rented it a year ago there.

I'm actually glad Boomerang keeps getting pushed back because I shelled out $40 for one of the ones that didn't get pulled. The longer it takes to release it the less unhappy I'll be about spending so much.

I finally got a copy. So it was a bloomin' Boomerang after all!

There was a New Yorker cartoon which I love. The title is "Why Boomerangs come back" The pic is a guy tossing a boomerang and the boomerang (after its left his hands) thinks "I'm lonely..."

Now, it doesn't have to be...

Thank God (and that's the worst Australian accent I've ever heard... )

It wasn't 1/2 as bad as it would have been if you had actually heard it!
