Cinematheque: Anthony Mann’s Noirs

Treasury men Dennis O’Brien and Tony Genaro go undercover to root out the murderer of a fellow T-man. Their guide through the Los Angeles counterfeit underworld is The Schemer (Wally Ford), a pathetic figure possessed of a strange magnetism who meets his untimely demise in one of the most memorable death scenes in the history of cinema. For many, T-Men is the canonical Mann noir -- and with good reason. NOTE: this showing begins at 8:25, so arrive early for the best seats!
