Description
NOIR CITY, the acclaimed magazine of the Film Noir Foundation, now available in print! Issue 38 investigates the true crime phenomenon, from its inception to the present day. Eddie Muller lays the groundwork with a survey of classic- era films noir that were based on real events, while also pinpointing the instances in which Hollywood tweaked the facts. Also in this issue: Editor-in- chief Imogen Sara Smith examines the role of social realism in the development of the true crime aesthetic; John Wranovics sheds light on the fascinating and controversial life of Roger Touhy; Vance McLaughlin details the harrowing case of the serial killer who inspired The Night of the Hunter; Rachel Walther breaks down the compelling ways in which a factual crime overlapped with its fictional retelling in Dog Day Afternoon; Danilo Castro weighs in on the 20th century cold cases that have been turned into 21st century films; Andy Wolverton revisits the brutal murder that occurred at 10 Rillington Place; Steve Kronenberg reminds us of the ingenuity and the impact of Targets; and Mary Mallory compares the book and film versions of Down Three Dark Streets. Plus book reviews, film reviews, and more. Read more
