The venerable NOIR CITY film festival returns for its 13th year, presenting an astonishing array of rarities mostly available ONLY on the big screen. We’ve scoured studio archives to assemble a feast of film noir that can only be consumed in its original 35mm format, in the glorious darkness of a vintage movie palace!

This year’s program features several new prints preserved by the Film Noir Foundation and the UCLA Film & Television Archive, including rarities HIGH WALL, LOOPHOLE, THE HUNTED, STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT and THE DARK MIRROR. In fact, 23 of the 28 films in the series are not on DVD! This may be the last chance to ever see these extraordinary films on a big screen - don’t miss a single one!

This year you can purchase a Film Noir Series pass for $120. Pass holders will get one ticket to each film in the series. Additional tickets can be purchased individually at regular price. Cinematheque members will get a deeper discount by buying tickets individually at the member price. Pass sale ends April 1 when the series begins. Available at the box office or on Fandango.
