The 8th Annual Noir City Film Festival in San Francisco begins this Friday, January 22, and runs through Sunday, January 31st. This year's theme is "lust and larceny," which pairs the those two sides of the same coin in a series of double features. Highlights include a showing of the completely restored version of the 1951 noir Cry Danger, starring Dick Powell, Rhonda Fleming, and Dick Erdman, and "Bad Girls Night," to celebrate the upcoming DVD box set Bad Girls of Film Noir, with a "a bevy of bad girls" scheduled to be in attendance. The link above has ticket info, including a passport discount. The M is for Mystery Bookstore will be there selling books, too.
If that isn't enough film noir on the big screen for you, the American Cinematheques's annual Film Noir Festival will take place in April at the Egyptian theater in Los Angeles, and the Arthur Lyons Film Noir Festival in Palm Springs is coming up in late May to early June.
