Noir City

Noir City


"It’s a bitter little world.”—Joan Bennett in Hollow Triumph

We are thrilled to bring Noir City to Seattle for the first time. The festival is co-presented with and will benefit the Film Noir Foundation whose mission is to spread the word about this significant American cinematic movement, and to find and preserve films in danger of being lost or irreparably damaged. Noir City denizen Eddie Muller will be on hand to introduce many of the programs. “If you want to study noir’s existentialist deconstruction of the Judeo-Christian patriarchy—good for you. If you’re coming to dig the vintage rides and vinegary repartée, to soak up the shadows and wallow in the wanton behavior—take a seat front and center.”—Eddie Muller, Czar of Noir

Entry into Noir City limits is $10 / $9 SIFF Group Members...
