35mm Film Fest | Where the Sidewalk Ends (1950)

Our 6th Annual 35mm Film Festival returns on April 17th-19th! We are thrilled to welcome Turner Classic Movies host Alicia Malone as this year’s honoree of the Lou DiCrescenzo Cinematic Arts Award. She will join us in person as we showcase nine classic films from the archival vaults of national institutions like the Library of Congress, the UCLA Film & Television Archive, the George Eastman Museum, and more. Each feature is accompanied with an introduction and an era-appropriate pre-show of vintage snipes, trailers, and shorts.

The festival will end with a great Film Noir from Otto Preminger-WHERE THE SIDEWALK ENDS. Turner Classic Movies Writer Hannah Jack will join us in person to introduce the film.
𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗲: Director Otto Preminger reunites Dana Andrews and Gene Tierney in this rarely screened, but quintessential, film noir about a hard-boiled New York detective whose interrogation methods go too far. Gripping, inventive, and presented on a drop-dead gorgeous black and white print, you won’t be able to take your eyes off the screen until the credits roll.
