Film noir features prominently at TCM Classic Film Festival

Cinematic Journeys: Travel in the Movies is the theme for the 2013 TCM Classic Film Festival, which takes place in Hollywood April 25-28. The lineup will explore how movies can carry viewers beyond their hometowns to distant or imaginary locales, where they can be transformed by great storytelling.

What I’m most looking forward to, though, is the slew of film noir treats and the special guests that make the fest so memorable. They are:

The Killing

The Night of the Hunter
