The Seattle Film Festival is bringing Noir City to Seattle for the first time. The festival is co-presented with and will benefit the Film Noir Foundation. Noir City denizen Eddie Muller who will introduce many of the screenings says:
If you want to study noir’s ‘existentialist deconstruction of the Judeo-Christian patriarchy’ good for you. If you’re coming to dig the vintage rides and vinegary repartee, to soak up the shadows and wallow in the wanton behavior, take a seat front and center.
