OK, we're back from Noir City, and we will resume our normal programming this week. Of the twenty-four films shown at the festival, we went to eighteen. That's a lot of movies in ten days!
Here are trailers from some of our favorites films from the festival.
Cry Danger
Niagara
Beginning scene from Women's Prison
Pitfall
Sound like such a cool festival, rather jealous!
Were any of these films you've linked ever done on the radio?
Great site btw

Thanks, Toby. I did look around for radio adaptations of the films shown at this year's festival, but I have only found two so far. Lux Radio Theatre did 1 hour versions of Pickup on South Street (6/21/54) and Slattery's Hurricane(3/6/1950). You can find them at Tennessee Bill's OTR under the Lux Theatre page. http://tinyurl.com/yb55xtu
That page includes Lux's version of Deadline U.S.A., which was shown during last year's festival, as well as, their adaptations of the more famous noir films: Double Indemnity, The Third Man, Leave Her to Heaven, etc.
That's all I've come up with! Thanks again, - Christine
