Macao

(1951) dir Josef von Sternberg w/Mitchum, Jane Russell, William Bendix, Thomas Gomez [81 min; 35mm]

Mitchum marries his hard-luck lothario character of his fifties films with his penchant for film noir in this breezy, sexy romp co-starring the vivacious Jane Russell. A caper-noir filled with sultry locations and even sultrier characters, MACAO stars Mitchum as a cynical ex-pat who gets into hot water when he is mistaken for an undercover agent by an underworld boss.

A "Double Feature" ticket additionally allows admission into the 7:00 screening of HEAVEN KNOWS, MR. ALLISON. No additional purchase is necessary.
