A viewing tip that might be of interest to those assembled.
Turner Classic Movies will be showing 1946's Deadline at Dawn
this Tuesday, October 30, at 11:45 PM Eastern. I caught it at
Eddie Muller's Noir City festival earlier this year, and
Megan Abbott wrote an appreciation of it in the Film Noir
Foundation's latest newsletter. Trust me when I say it's one
of the damnedest movies you'll ever see. Clifford Odets
adapting Cornell Woolrich for Harold Clurman, founder of the
Group Theater directing his only film. If you've ever
wondered what a noir written by Barton Fink would be like,
set that DVR.
