NOIR CITY , the acclaimed magazine of the Film Noir Foundation, now available in print! Issue #40 revolves around Los Angeles, and the rich, complicated history the city has had with noir over the years. Eddie Muller takes us on a tour of the “City of Angles,” highlighting the significant films that have taken place on its streets, and pinpointing the ways in which each of them speak to a different aspect of the L.A. experience. Also in this issue: Brian Raftery celebrates the wave of sleazy neon-noir that characterized L.A. in the 1980s; Mary Mallory lays out the definitive SoCal map with regards to noir landmarks; Zach Vasquez dishes on the difference between a little-known Raymond Chandler novel and its even less-known film adaptation; Imogen Sara Smith deftly explores the isolation of the big city through a trio of 1960s docudramas; Travis Woods pops the hood on the mechanical poetry of both The Driver and Drive ; Rachel Walther takes us on a Santa Monica detour with a remembrance of Night Tide ; Danilo Castro assumes the perspective of L.A. outsiders by comparing films from four different decades; and Nicholas Laskin examines the impact that Crime Wave had on the advent of street realism. Plus book reviews, film reviews, and more.
