Description

NOIR CITY, the acclaimed magazine of the Film Noir Foundation, now available in print! Issue 43 pays tribute to legendary filmmaker David Lynch, and the idiosyncratic yet influential body of work he left behind following his death at age 78. Zach Vasquez breaks down Lynch’s seminal neo noir contributions, and the ways in which Lynch’s surreal approach to storytelling both honored and subverted the classic noir tropes that inspired him. Also in this issue: Eddie Muller revisits, and reconsiders, the legacy of the Fritz Lang masterpiece The Big Heat; Nick Rossi celebrates the career and skill set of beloved character actor Joseph Calleia; Drew Smith looks back at John Frankenheimer’s unnerving thriller Seconds in the wake of the similar (and Oscar-nominated) film The Substance; Carsten Andresen recounts the risks that the cast and crew took during the making of the acclaimed Iranian crime drama The Seed of the Sacred Fig; Stefen Styrsky digs into the textually rich yet troubled lineage of writers in noir films; Rachel Walther sings the praises of the fascinating Bette Davis vehicle Beyond the Forest; and Eddie Muller brings it home with a write up of the criminally underseen Destroyer. Plus film reviews, crossword puzzles, and more. Read more

  • SO glad I found this publication!

  • Imogen and Eddie Tell It Straight
Format: Paperback
There is no future in nostalgia, and pointing the finger at the selfish cruelty of today keeps this magazine current. It's been a (gin and) tonic to read them this year, and I can't wait for the next issue.

  • Fabulous!
Format: Paperback
Noir City Magazine #43 slipped out of the envelope like a dame with dark secrets—smooth on the surface, shiny and beautiful, not giving anything up. But open the pages and the shadows and danger spill out, full of hard truths.

  • Now more a political opinion publication:
Format: Paperback
I must agree with the prior reviewer, in that the magazine has been spoiled by the repeated off-the-subject political tangents. Can no longer recommend.

  • Highest quality analysis
Format: Paperback
If you're looking for well-thought film commentary presented in a spectacular package you should buy and study this. In our time of click-bait and fast takes, this is the correction. Kudos to everyone involved in its production.
