11/15 - November is for noir! Join the Onyx Downtown in celebrating the 70th anniversary of Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece of the film noir genre. Includes a special introduction from film historian and film noir aficionado Gary Petersen! Kubrick's account of an ambitious racetrack robbery is one of Hollywood's tautest, twistiest noirs. Aided by a radically time-shuffling narrative, razor-sharp dialogue from pulp novelist Jim Thompson, and a phenomenal cast of character actors, including Sterling Hayden, Coleen Gray, Timothy Carey, Elisha Cook Jr., and Marie Windsor, THE KILLING is both a jaunty thriller and a cold-blooded punch to the gut. And with its precise tracking shots and gratifying sense of irony, it's Kubrick to the core.
