NOIR CITY: Hollywood returns to the Egyptian Theatre with a lineup of 23 films over eight days and nights, shining a spotlight on women whose cinematic legacy is entwined with the rise of film noir. Many of this year’s films star the six actresses profiled in Eddie Muller’s 2002 book Dark City Dames: The Wicked Women of Film Noir, which is being reissued in April 2025 in a newly revised and expanded edition. Jane Greer, Marie Windsor, Audrey Totter, Evelyn Keyes, Coleen Gray, and Ann Savage are the core cadre of women featured in this year’s program, which includes many of their signature films, including, respectively, OUT OF THE PAST (1947), TENSION (1949), THE PROWLER (1951), THE KILLING (1956) and DETOUR (1945) alongside many more.
