THE GREAT GATSBY
(1949, Paramount [Universal] 91 min.) Preserved 35-mm Print!
Resurrected at long last! This version of F. Scott Firzgerald's classic novel has been buried for decades, to make way for remakes. Thanks to our friends at Universal Pictures, Alan Ladd's noir-styled take on the timeless tale of shady success and unrequited love is again available, in a brand-new print made exclusively for NOIR CITY! Screenplay by Cyril Hume and Richard Maibaum, from a play by Owen Davis, based on Fitzgerald's novel. Directed by Elliott Nugent.

THREE STRANGERS
(1946, Warner Bros. 92 min.) Preserved 35-mm Print!
Noir strays into the supernatural realm in this fantastic tale of three strangers (Sydney Greenstreet, Peter Lorre, and Geraldine Fitzgerald) whose fates entwine with a mysterious Chinese idol and a winning lottery ticket. Deeply cynical, gloriously atmospheric. Never on DVD, almost lost in 35-mm, we proudly present this forgotten classic in a brand new FNF-funded preservation print! Screenplay by John Huston and Howard Koch. Directed by Jean Negulesco.
