ABOUT THE FESTIVAL: NOIR CITY: Hollywood returns to the Egyptian Theatre! One of the most elaborate theatrical noir showcases in the United States celebrates its 25th anniversary at the American Cinematheque with a killer lineup of twenty-three films. In the face of contemporary political turmoil, NOIR CITY has declared “Darkness Has No Borders” as its guiding principle. Alongside its classic lineup, the festival will present a series of allegorical double features, pairing international films with more familiar English-language ones. Join the Film Noir Foundation’s Eddie Muller and Alan K. Rode on a global adventure of noir cinema with twelve 35mm prints (including a glorious Nitrate print) and special guests for a splashy, sinister trip back in time.
