NOIR CITY James Ellroy in Person! Split Second

Palace of Fine Arts
San Francisco, CA

JAMES ELLROY IN PERSON!
Spend a night in the kennel with the Demon Dog. On the anniversary of the Black Dahlia murder, America's greatest living writer of noir fiction presents a rarely-screened "nuclear noir" and engages in a raucous post-film Q&A.

7:00
SPLIT SECOND -- RARITY! An escaped mad-dog killer (Steven McNally) takes hostages to the only place where he knows no one will come looking: an A-bomb test site. As one of his captives bluntly explains: "When you've seen one A-bomb, you've seen 'em all." The first film directed by veteran actor Dick Powell. With Alexis Smith and Jan Sterling. RKO (Warner Bros.), 1953. 85 min.

Note: James Ellroy and Eddie Muller--The Demon Dog and the Czar of Noir--together on stage!
