Noir City Detroit
2023—NOIR CITY returns for its sixth year to Detroit’s historic Redford Theatre, September 22 - 24 with a 75th-anniversary focus on films from 1948. Film Noir Foundation president Eddie Muller will host all eight screenings, as well as sign copies of his latest book Eddie Muller’s Noir Bar: Cocktails Inspired by the World of Film Noir at 7:00 p.m. on opening night. Muller, aka the “Czar of Noir” and a noted author, is a leading figure in film restoration and preservation and a familiar face to classic film fans from his weekly series Noir Alley on Turner Classic Movies (TCM).
Two 35mm presentations open the festival screenings at 8:00 p.m. on Friday, September 22-- John Huston’s Key Largo featuring an all-star cast—Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, and Edward G. Robinson—is paired with Anthony Mann’s beautiful-but-gritty Raw Deal. Saturday offers up a matinée and an evening double feature. Anatole Litvak’s suspenseful Sorry, Wrong Number starring the inimitable Barbara Stanwyck and Jean Negulesco’s love triangle gone wrong tale Road House play in the afternoon. Robert Wise’s Odds Against Tomorrow (1959) anchors the evening’s double bill and is preceded by a tribute to Harry Belafonte who co-starred with Robert Ryan in Wise’s explosive heist film. Nicholas Ray’s tender tragedy They Live by Night ends the day. A Sunday matinée double feature finishes off the festivities: John Farrow’s nail-biting The Big Clock and Frank Borzage’s haunting Southern Gothic noir Moonrise.
