The FILM NOIR series at Coos Bay Public Library continues on Sunday, September 18th at 4:00. This month’s feature is Otto Preminger’s 1944 film noir classic “LAURA”. In one of the most celebrated 1940s film noirs, Manhattan detective Mark McPherson (Dana Andrews) investigates the murder of Madison Avenue executive Laura Hunt (Gene Tierney) in her fashionable apartment. On the trail of her murderer, McPherson quizzes Laura’s arrogant best friend, gossip columnist Waldo Lydecker (Clifton Webb) and her comparatively mild fiancé, Shelby Carpenter (Vincent Price). As the detective grows obsessed with the case, he finds himself falling in love with the dead woman. The Film Noir series is held on the third Sunday of the month. Next month will feature the 1942 hard-boiled thriller “This Gun For Hire” on October 19th. Everyone is welcome at this free program sponsored by The Friends of Coos Bay Public Library. Please call 269-1101 or visit coosbaylibrary.org for further information about this program.
