NOIR CITY, the acclaimed magazine of the Film Noir Foundation, now available in print! Issue #38 investigates the true crime phenomenon, from its inception to the present day. Eddie Muller lays the groundwork with a survey of classic-era films noir that were based on real events, while also pinpointing the instances in which Hollywood tweaked the facts. Also in this issue: Editor-in-chief Imogen Sara Smith examines the role of social realism in the development of the true crime aesthetic; John Wranovics sheds light on the fascinating and controversial life of Roger Touhy; Vance McLaughlin details the harrowing case of the serial killer who inspired The Night of the Hunter; Rachel Walther breaks down the compelling ways in which a factual crime overlapped with its fictional retelling in Dog Day Afternoon; Danilo Castro weighs in on the 20th century cold cases that have been turned into 21st century films; Andy Wolverton revisits the brutal murder that occurred at 10 Rillington Place; Steve Kronenberg reminds us of the ingenuity and the impact of Targets; and Mary Mallory compares the book and film versions of Down Three Dark Streets. Plus book reviews, film reviews, and more.
