The glamorous and elegant, the seedy and the desperate, the criminal and the maudlin - they all come together for a cynical, dark and often tragic performance that characterizes the film noir movement of the 1940-1950s. Countless films take place in Los Angeles, California and yet LA is often misrepresented, giving visitors and newcomers quite a surprise upon arrival to the City of Angels. The films we will be screening were all shot on location in Los Angeles: Act of Violence, Armored Car Robbery, The Unfaithful, Southside 1-1000, Cry Danger.
