NOIR CITY X: DARK PASSAGE / THE HOUSE ON TELEGRAPH HILL
The price of admission gets you in for the double bill.
7:00
DARK PASSAGE
(1947, Warner Bros. 106 min.)
We kick off this year's festival with Bogart & Bacall's darkest duet, a bizarre ramble through nocturnal 1940s San Francisco, as an escaped con pursues the real culprit in his wife's murder. Startling use of the subjective-eye camera focuses on the mid-20th century city in all its noir glory. A 10th anniversary encore of NOIR CITY's inaugural Opening Night film. Screenplay and direction by Delmer Daves, based on the novel by David Goodis.
9:30
THE HOUSE ON TELEGRAPH HILL
(1951, 20th Century-Fox, 93 min.)
A WWII concentration camp survivor (Valentina Cortese) trades identities with a doomed camp-mate and winds up living a luxurious lie in a mysterious mansion above North Beach. Her romantic attachments soon turn suspicious, sinister, and deadly. A classic "woman in jeopardy" thriller, shot entirely on location in the city, and a time capsule of postwar San Francisco. Screenplay by Elich Moll & Frank Partos, from a novel by Dana Lyon. Directed by Robert Wise.
