Held back by Warner Bros. until 1946 when the film was recut, this restored 1945 version will be followed by a detailed documentary (38 min.) about the two versions.

After taking a job at a diner, drifter Frank Chambers (John Garfield) finds that his handyman duties are significantly less interesting than the boss's wife—a lipstick blonde (Lana Turner) whose plans for the adulterous pair lead to murder, betrayal, and death. The second adaptation of James M. Cain's novel (Visconti's Ossessione was made three years prior) is classic film noir at its most erotic, thanks in no small part to Turner's performance as the dangerously alluring femme fatale.

2018-08-18 20:00 - 22:00 | Bop Shop Records, 1460 Monroe Ave., Rochester, New York, 14618, United States
"Tamez's music, while including modern European and American instruments never seems to originate in their commonly associated styles and, while the language of his poetry is Spanish, the spirit of his music is pre-Columbian. At first, he almost seems to be playing at the guitar; but as his performance continues, you see that the guitar is what he plays his music on. Instead of accessing the 'tradition' of the instrument (something he is quite capable of doing, as his discography shows), he goes to a tradition of place, where instruments are assimilated. In a sense, the umbrella he uses for his projects, 'Non-Jazz,' is a non-sequitur, since indigenousness is the root of jazz as well." Ratzo B. Harris — New Music Box
