communities, the process of putting out a paper each week, how they make
editorial decisions, their individual books, Pasadena city politics and more

Noir Night

Vine and Crush, for a screening of one of the great L.A. noir films, The
Long Goodbye, based on the Raymond Chandler novel of the same name. Moving
from Malibu to Tijuana to L.A., the film showcases a young Phillip Marlowe
in a wholly original, early-’70s, Altmanesque manner. Sutton will introduce
the film and explain some of its labyrinthine plot points and the
entertaining background to the making of this witty, inventive, enthralling
film. Note the movie contains strong violence and is rated R.
