Landmark's Nuart Theatre presents a selection of British Noir double features, released by the go-to distributors of classic reissues, Rialto Pictures. Googie Withers stars as a conflicted housewife in Robert Hamer's stark, restrained thriller, It Always Rains on Sunday (1947). A newly restored version of John Boulting's Brighton Rock (1947) features a youthful Richard Attenborough in an absorbing adaptation of a Graham Greene novel. Carol Reed directs another Greene reworking, psychological drama The Fallen Idol (1948), and Orson Wells stars as the eponymous Harry Lime in a 60th anniversary print of The Third Man (1949), also directed by Reed. Michael Powell's Peeping Tom (1960) follows in the footsteps of frustrated filmmaker/murderer Mark Lewis (Carl Boehm), rounding out the week-long program of Brit-noir highlights.
