I’d love to be able to see Cry Danger, which is a noir that I haven’t yet seen or tracked down a copy of.

I have not seen it either, Dave. A tough one to find. There are a few others I want to find especially two by Siodmak, Fly by Night and Deported.

Well, I haven’t seen CRY DANGER either, nor RED LIGHT and a few others. I know the Castro is the film noir mecca, and this festival is an annual convention for genre lovers from all over. It’s really a major venue, and I can only dream of being there. I know Eddie Muller is the major player.

I remember walking by the Castro when we went out to SF on vacation some ten years ago.

Sounds like a wonderful festival – I’d especially love to see The Postman Always Rings Twice on the big screen. Still with Garfield, I was given a DVD of ‘He Ran All the Way’ for Christmas, but haven’t watched it yet.

Judy,
“He Ran all the Way” is a good film. Garfield was one of the greats. And yes, it would be great to see “Postman” on the big screen.
