Memento (2000) and Gone Girl (2014) screen at GOMA as part of Film Noir – a film program that celebrates one of the most seductive and enduring cinema movements. Conjuring images of private detectives, femme fatales, neon-lit streets and dive bars, film noir melded the glamour and thrills of Hollywood’s crime films with the black and white aesthetics of German expressionism.
Curated by the Gallery’s Australian Cinémathèque, Film Noir brings together a selection of pre-noir films from the 1920s and 1930s, including beloved gangster stories (The Public Enemy (1931), William A Wellman) and influential German expressionist films (M (1931), Fritz Lang), alongside film noir classics (Double Indemnity (1944), Billy Wilder; The Big Sleep (1946), Howard Hawks). It also considers contemporary cinema with the themes and aesthetics of film noir (Taxi Driver (1976), Martin Scorsese; Drive (2011), Nicolas Winding Refn) and its ongoing international influence (Goldstone (2016), Ivan Sen).
To celebrate the opening of Film Noir, The Weekend Edition is presenting a special screening of Memento and Gone Girl at GOMA on Friday March 31 at 6:00 pm. Enter below for your chance to win one of 70 double passes.
Competition closes Friday March 24, 2017 at 11:59 am. Winners will be contacted by phone and email.
