filmnoirfoundation: NOIR CITY Hollywood Opens This Friday!NOIR CITY returns to Hollywood this weekend, April 15-17, with a slate of eight films and a new venue, the Hollywood Legion Theater. Screenings will be introduced by FNF founder Eddie Muller and FNF board member Alan K. Rode. Tickets, full schedule and program notes are available on the Hollywood Legion’s website.This year’s festival kicks off with two Film Noir Foundation funded restorations of Cy Endfield directed noirs, “Try and Get Me!” (1951) and the Los Angeles premiere of “The Argyle Secrets” (1948). We’ll also be screening our restorations of Joseph Losey’s envelope pushing “The Prowler” (1951) and Michael Curtiz’ “The Breaking Point” (1950) based on Ernest Hemingway’s “To Have and Have Not”, as well as the 35mm preservation print that we funded of Cy Endfield’s “The Underworld Story” (1950). All the FNF funded restorations were performed by UCLA Film & Television Archive. FNF proceeds from the NOIR CITY festival benefit the foundation’s efforts to rescue and restore noir films in danger of being permanently lost or damaged.All patrons aged 18 and up will be required to provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination. -- source link
