NOIR CITY Film Restoration Tribute -- City That Never Sleeps / Hollow Triumph
FILM RESTORATION TRIBUTE Please join us for a double bill of rescued classics, as The Film Noir Foundation honors a pair of organizations essential to the recovery and restoration of America's film legacy, the UCLA Film & Television Archive and Martin Scorsese's Film Foundation.
7:30 CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS -- RARITY! Writer Steve Fisher's "B" masterpiece is a sordid tale of one night in the urban jungle, narrated by the city (Chicago) itself! Director John Auer and a cast of noir stalwarts brings to life the story of a tempted cop (Gig Young) tangled in a web of corruption and vice. With Marie Windsor, William Talman, Mala Powers, Edward Arnold. Republic, 1953. 90 min. Special thanks to Martin Scorsese for loan of his personal 35mm print!
9:30 HOLLOW TRIUMPH A fugitive crook finds the perfect hiding place in the shoes of a psychiatrist who is his identical twin... almost. Produced by star Paul Heinreid, this is a sublime example of noir fatalism, lensed by the great John Alton. Directed by Steve Sekely. With Joan Bennett. Eagle-Lion, 1948. 83 min. Restored 35mm print courtesy UCLA Film & Television Archive.
