Join us for Noir-vember! WEEK 3 THE MALTESE FALCON (1941)

Noir-vember is a mini noir film festival at the Mt Lebanon Public Library over three weeks in November.

Come to one, or come to multiple screenings.

The Maltese Falcon (1941) Directed by John Huston (his directorial debut) and starring an amazing cast including Humphrey Bogart, Mary Astor, Gladys George, Peter Lorre, and Sydney Greenstreet. In this third film adaptation of the Dashiell Hammett noir classic, Sam Spade finds himself in a case with three eccentric criminals and a beautiful femme fatal all searching for the falcon. This film was nominated for 3 Academy Awards, listed on the AFI Top 100, and was one of the first group of films selected by the Library of Congress for inclusion in the National Film Registry as “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.” An absolute classic.
