STRAY DOG AND NAKED CITY
This weeks double bill is a film noir special with two classics from the
genre, first up is STRAY DOG Kurosawa’s masterful police thriller set in
occupied Tokyo. This clever piece of filmmaking frames the period beautifully
while still maintaining the hot sweaty atmosphere of the Tokyo underworld.
Second up is Jules Dassin’s NAKED CITY considered the template for pretty all
future noir films. Directed by master noir craftsman Jules Dassin it is shot entirely
on location in New York in a semi-documentary style, it turns the city into the
star a thing of pure beauty a filmmaking master class.
