Film Classics in 35mm! Night and the City: Film Noir

PANIC IN THE STREETS

United States | 1950 | Elia Kazan

PANIC IN THE STREETS film still

Here’s a film noir we can relate to. A New Orleans health official (Richard Widmark) and the local police frantically try to track down and capture two lowlifes (Jack Palance, Zero Mostel) who murdered an illegal alien. Time is of the essence because, in addition to being homicidal killers, they might be carrying the plague! Contract tracing was never so exciting... Archival 35mm print! 93 min.

Special admission $11; members, CIA & CSU I.D. holders, and those age 25 & under $8. No passes or twofers.

Expanded Covid requirements: In 2022, all Cinematheque visitors will be required to show proof of Covid vaccination and a photo ID upon entering CIA. This is in addition to having their temperature taken via a touchless device and wearing a mask for the duration of their visit. Learn more under the "Vaccination Requirement: Visitors to CIA" section at cia.edu/covid. As a reminder, filmgoers can park for free in Lot 73 and should enter CIA via nearby Entrance C.
