HollywoodGolightly Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 I've just learned that Harry Belafonte's visit to the Noir City festival has been postponed indefinitely; the following is the official announcement: *HARRY BELAFONTE POSTPONED!* Due to an unexpected development beyond everyone?s control, Harry Belafonte cannot appear at this year?s NOIR CITY festival. Mr. Belafonte sends his deepest regrets and fondest regards to the film fans of San Francisco, with whom he was so eager to have shared this special 50th anniversary screening of Odds Against Tomorrow. We hope to have the legendary Mr. B in NOIR CITY soon! http://www.noircity.com/noircity.html Link to post Share on other sites

HollywoodGolightly Posted January 28, 2010 Author Share Posted January 28, 2010 One of the coolest handouts ever at a film festival are these DVD artwork inserts handed out during Noir City's presentation of tawdry B-films from the upcoming "Bad Girls of Film Noir" DVD sets. These handouts can simply be inserted into the DVD cases - and, imho, look even better than the standard issue ones. They are inscribed with a dedication to the "loyal denizens of Noir City" Yey!
