Brilliant! The woman in the background is the icing on the cake. You have everything here: the striped shadows from the blinds, the shadow from his hat across his eyes, the costumes, the busty blond, the cigarette, great composition, excellent poses, high contrast. 10

Beautiful lighting, detail and tones; my pick of the challenge.

This makes me nuts. What's the banding on the top and bottom all about here? It's such a well thought-out shot and cleverly executed that it's an easy 9 but I find the affectations of the added borders very distracting. I really want to understand that decision so maybe I can see the light. I'm giving a reluctant 7 for capturing the noirish spirit with a bit of tongue-in-cheek in the proper aspect ratio (excepting borders).

Clearly the winner. Not only are the characters, chiaroscuro, and costumes exactly redolent of a 40s-era movie poster, but the photo is expertly done, setup and post. You so obviously really understand the use of light back then. Really the best in this challenge, by far. This could easily be mistaken for a still from a movie of the era. 10
