Starting this Friday, January 25, 2019 at the Castro Theatre: the NOIR CITY Film Festival!
Dive into NOIR CITY 17 and experience the rush—through a lens, darkly—of a turbulent and transitional time in American history, culture, and cinema. Nothing would ever be the same.
Celebrating its 17th year, NOIR CITY, the largest annual film noir festival in the world, returns once again to the majestic Castro Theatre for a 10-night feast of danger, desire, and despair, January 25-February 3, 2019. Film Noir Foundation prez Eddie Muller will once again lead audiences on a fun and fascinating excursion through "Hollywood's only organic artistic movement."
This year's program offers viewers a slate of films that track noir through the declining studio system and into a fresh cinematic landscape where noir was refashioned, both subtly and radically, for a new generation.

It's the 29th Anniversary of the Sea Lions Arrival at Pier 39 this weekend, January 19-20, 2019!
The boisterous barking pinnipeds began arriving in droves shortly after the Loma Prieta earthquake hit San Francisco in October 1989. With a protected environment and plentiful supply of food from the Bay, the sea lions quickly decided to make PIER 39’s K-Dock their new home.
