13th Annual Film Noir Festival at Egyptian Theatre
Starting April 1 at the Egyptian Theatre, it’s the 13th annual Film Noir festival. It’s three weeks long, comes from the Film Noir Foundation, and features not the usual suspects like "Double Indemnity," but some real rarities – some of which are restored and in sparkling new 35 millimeter prints for the first time in decades. Off-Ramp host John Rabe spoke with the foundation's Alan Rode, who co-programmed the festival. CLICK THROUGH FOR THE FESTIVAL SCHEDULE.
"High Wall," a 1947 film noir with Robert Taylor as an amnesiac World War Two vet. One of the selections in the 13th Annual Festival of Film Noir starting Friday at the American Cinematheque's Egyptian Theatre.
