Also from yesterday's Incredible Shrinking Newspaper™©, fans of so-called noir may want to look at some of these flicks, on the big screen at the Billy Wilder Theater over the next several wks. The official title of the fest is: "Cool Drinks of Water: Columbia's Noir Girls of the '40s and '50s." Can't beat that w/ a stick, can you?
Most worth the effort, in our not at all humble opinion? Gloria Grahame,
followed by Lizabeth Scott. Nina Foch, of course, went on to more fame as an acting teacher.

Yeah, if I were the type to leave the house, I might check 'em out. I have most of them on tape, however. Mighty good program, tho.

Why look, it's too late for us to go either!! How'd that happen? What a surprise.
Actually, I don't have most of them on tape. I've never seen Fritz Lang's "Human Desire" and have wanted to. Plus Cleo Moore is featured, she is the bad girl in "On Dangerous Ground" who wants Robert Ryan to beat her up. Pretty twisted.

We didn't think all the offerings were avaiable, even via TCM or illegal, immoral duplicating.
