B noir
 

 

“Dive into this rich six-week series and understand why ‘B’ and ‘Noir’ are sacred terms in the church of cinephilia.
 – J. Hoberman, The Village Voice

“A belt-busting retro of generous double (sometimes triple) whammies...
there're more ultra-gritty, forgotten bad dreams here than the average noiriste can possibly tolerate in one spring!”
– Michael Atkinson, The Village Voice. Click here to read entire review

“Never mind the big name noir staples you’ve seen a hundred time over.
If you’re hankering for a fix of the truly hardboiled pulp fiction, check out the nuggets usually relegated to the bottom of the bill.
Whether it’s an established classic or a low-budget obscurity, each of these films hits you like a hot kiss from a bruised fist.”
 – Time Out New York

“May be the most important repertory event of the year, and it transmits a very clear message:
that the Poverty Row clip joint was a more treacherous and richer place to hang your hat than Casablanca.”
 – Ed Gonzalez, Slant
