It’s Noir-vember again and we are back with another great film noir themed show! This year The Criterion Channel has a collection of 20th Century Fox produced films and we look at three of the movies showing. Joining the show is critic Alisha Mughal, who was last heard on episode 197: David Cronenberg and Body Horror. We discuss Fallen Angel directed by Otto Preminger, Call Northside 777 directed by Henry Hathaway and Panic in the Streets directed by Elia Kazan.
Listen to last year’s noir themed episode 173: Noir-vember to hear Rachel and Dakota share their favourites of the genre.
You can watch the three movies we covered either on The Criterion Channel with two of them for free on YouTube (Fallen Angel and Call Northside 777).
