NOIR CITY PASSPORT 2022
NOIR CITY, a Bay Area cultural institution since 2003, returns from COVID-19 hiatus for an incisive and inspiring four-day film festival at a new venue, Oakland's historic Grand Lake Theatre. Produced, programmed and hosted by Eddie Muller, this year's edition, subtitled "They Tried to Warn Us!" showcases 12 movies from mid-twentieth-century Hollywood sure to resonate with contemporary viewers. "Film noir is revered for its incredible sass and style," Muller says, "but many of the films were also warning flares about issues that still plague our culture more than seventy years later." Included in this year's lineup are shockingly prescient films focusing on megalomaniacal politicians, corrupt businessmen, neo-Nazis, racism, anti-Semitism, sexual predators, serial killers, police brutality--even a viral epidemic! This NOIR CITY program could not be more timely or topical. "That said, this isn't like taking your medicine," Muller notes. "It will be a restorative tonic for folks eager to see classic movies again on a big screen and enjoy, with the prescribed protocols, a return to the party atmosphere NOIR CITY is famous for."

- Entry to all 12 films during NOIR CITY 19 (a $30 savings over individual ticket purchases)

Q&A
Question: |
Hello! I just wanted to ask a quick question about the festival pass....since will call is the only option, do I have to wait until the festival starts to pick it up, or will I be able to pick it up at the theater sometime in advance? Please let me know, thank you! |
Answer: |
Hello! Yes, you'll need to wait until the festival to pick up the passports. If you want to give someone a passport as a physical gift, you can print and package up the Brown Paper Tickets receipt and give them that; they can exchange it for the official passport at the theater before the first NOIR CITY show they attend. Ideally you'd buy it in their name. Thanks! |
