Noirvember: Dead ReckoningU

Curated by local film critic and podcaster Matthew Turner, this mini season of film noir classics runs exclusively at Chiswick Cinema throughout November 2024.

Each film will be introduced by Matthew Turner, a lifelong film noir enthusiast, who will also be around in the bar after each screening. In addition, audiences are invited to post about the films online, using the hashtag #Noirvember, a great source of other film noir recommendations.

About Dead Reckoning:
Released the same year as The Big Sleep (see below), this lesser-known noir thriller is ripe for rediscovery. Told in flashback, it stars Humprey Bogart as war hero “Rip” Murdock, who investigates the death of a fellow soldier and becomes entangled with smokey-voiced femme fatale Coral Chandler (Lizabeth Scott), who was his friend’s mistress.
