Hi! Tony,
Thanks, For the heads-up!…When it comes to the BFI
screening of 25 Femme Fatale noirs. Wow!..What a line-up! if only these films were being screened here in the U.S…As a matter of fact, TCM plan to show some “rarely aired” Film noirs next month.(Well,as far as I’am concerned they are “rare,” because I have never watched the films.)
Btw, I watched the film “Gattaca” again tonight…and now I have 2 more comments about the film.
Tony, Thank-you! for the “intro”duction, to “Gattaca” and “DarkCity.”
Take Care!

Yes Dcd, the BFI has put together a great noir line-up!
