    Dwight -

    Actually, even if you have to wait about an hour in line, it goes quick. Invariably you'll start a discussion with another one of the noir fiends in line. Please, no Back Alley Noir member name tags:-). Also, there is the people watching-like human zoo that is Castro Street. Last year there was a guy walking up and down the line with a live chicken on his head (and attendant chicken crap on his coat). He was asking for a dollar for the chicken to "tell" your fortune. No doubt he was an employee of the SF Convention and Visitor's Bureau. I think that guy was Raven's high point of the fesstival.

    That was one of many high points; "Chibob's Burrito & Noir Tour," fighting over the Maltese Falcon with Eddie while dining at John's Grille and of course late night drinks at Tosca Cafe. That all said, the "Chickenhead" was pretty amazing.

    "Crashout and Loophole! Wow. Are these newer prints?"

    Crashout is the UCLA Archive print that we screened in L.A. last April; extremely good. Loophole is a new 35mm print that is stupendously fine!

    Default Noir City Annual #3

    The 2010 edition of the Noir City Annual has just been sent to the printer. It's been redesigned and comes in at over 270 pages. It features all the articles from this past year's Noir City Sentinel, some of the best film writing out there. I've loaded it with plenty of rare photos, posters, lobby cards, and graphics. The book will be available at the upcoming NOIR CITY LA, the Film Noir Foundation's website, and Amazon.

    Here are some spreads from the book to check out.

    Best regards,

    Anne,

    thanks very much for this valuable Info... i immediately went to Amazon where i saw all 3 Issues being on offer, but with no 'International Shipping Option' available. As these Items are offered by the FILM NOIR FOUNDATION, i'm obviously in the right Place here, to ask where i can purchase these Books?! Btw, i'm from Germany, and i'd really like to add these wonderful Gems to my Collection. Your Help's appreciated very much! Thanks!

    The same here. I live in The Netherlands and I would like to order these books too. I understand that the FNF does not include the posting of certain products as a welcome gift for people who send a donation. I can live with that, I rather prefer my donation go to the saving and restoring of films or organising screening events than to be used for (expansive) packing and posting. But I would like to order the Noir City Annuals just for my own interest. Film Noir has a world wide interest that is not restricted to the US.

    Hi! I manage our Amazon seller account. I just spoke to Amazon and we have international shipping set up. We sell regularly to Europe and just sold two books to Germany and Austria. If you could post the link to Amazon where you see no international shipping maybe I can help you. Amazon suggested giving their customer service a call. I don't want to deny anyone the pleasure of reading these books so I hope we can resolve this for you quickly!

    We go through Amazon fulfillment to ship the books so it may look different from other Amazon purchases you have made in the past. It is available to Germany, one was shipped out to Munich last night. If you could post any link that says no international shipping I will talk to Amazon about it again. So sorry for any trouble!

    If anyone is still having trouble purchasing items please let me know! The third one is even better. The article on British Noir is really fascinating. If anyone wants to write a quick review that would be a big help!! Thanks! Dank u wel! Danke!

    I just received my copy of Annual #3 and was blown away! Not only is the content first-rate, but the volume itself is slick and well designed! Great job and kudos to all involved! Now to order the first two volumes.

    Totally agree with all the appraisals of the third book. Just got it yesterday and already can't put it down even though I've read most of the articles...

    Any idea when the next issue of Noir City Sentinel is being released?

    I'm glad that readers are enjoying the new design in the Sentinel Annual.

    With regard to the Noir City Sentinel, it has been redesigned and re-invented. It is now titled NOIR CITY. I've designed it like a slick magazine. The premiere issue is bigger than any previous issue of the Sentinel and contains great articles. I think everyone will enjoy it. We've completed production on the issue and it will be due out to subscribers very soon. Here's a sneak peak at the cover.
