"Note that I agree with you and so does the book Film Noir (Ward \\ Silver) since they cover The Letter.  \n \n\n\n\tThe main reason this book cites the film as a very early noir type film is due to the lawyer compromising his profession and his own solid character to assist a femme fatale.     \n \n\n\n\tOf course the film does NOT contain what was to become familiar noir motifs but the film does provide (along with Stranger on the Third Floor),  where the 40s decade was going to take us as it relates to the style\\genre. \n \n\n\n\t \n "
