New 35mm Print! NOBODY LIVES FOREVER, 1946, Warner Bros., 100 min. Geraldine Fitzgerald is at her most luminous as a innocent war widow lured into a confidence game by a shady ex-GI (John Garfield). Is it any surprise that the grifter ends up falling for his magnificent mark? Or that the betrayed gang ends up wanting them both dead? Director Jean Negulesco ladles atmospherics onto W.R. Burnett’s savvy screenplay. Featuring great supporting turns from Walter Brennan, George Coulouris, Faye Emerson, and George Tobias. [35mm] New 35mm print funded by the Film Noir Foundation. Discussion between films with Geraldine Fitzgerald’s son, Michael Lindsay-Hogg. Lindsay-Hogg will sign copies of his book Luck and Circumstance: A Coming of Age in Hollywood, New York, and Points Beyond at 6:30 PM in the Egyptian lobby.
