NOIR CITY 21 Day 3

NOIR CITY returns to Oakland's Grand Lake Theatre with a double feature of THE HUMAN BEAST / LA BÊTE HUMAINE and HUMAN DESIRE both based on Émile Zola's novel. Full festival schedule, tickets and Passports (All-Access Passes) available at NoirCity.com

Sunday • January 21, 2024  DOUBLE FEATURE

THE HUMAN BEAST / LA BÊTE HUMAINE

1:30, 5:30, 9:30 PM

In the 1930s, Jean Gabin brought a gallery of doomed anti-heroes to life with a blend of poetic fatalism and blunt proletarian defiance, becoming the first global icon of the noir spirit. He personally selected Jean Renoir, after their collaboration on the classic La Grande Illusion (1937), to direct La bête humaine, adapted from a novel by Émile Zola. Untrammeled by Hollywood censorship, they stayed true to Zola’s disturbing conception of Gabin’s character: a decent working-class man whose “hereditary flaw” causes violent psychotic episodes, mostly aimed at women. When he falls in love with the wife of a railway official (Simone Simon), herself damaged by a history of abuse and exploitation, they are on track for inevitable tragedy. Renoir gives the film a gritty, neorealist flavor (Gabin, a train enthusiast, learned to drive a locomotive for his role) and instills the bleak story with unsentimental empathy.

In French with English subtitles

FRANCE (1938) Dir. Jean Renoir. 100 min.

HUMAN DESIRE

3:30, 7:30 PM

Following the popular success of 1953's The Big Heat, Columbia Pictures reteamed Glenn Ford and Gloria Grahame with director Fritz Lang for this Americanized adaptation of Le bête humaine, smuggling the sordid tale of adultery and murder past the censors. Gloria Grahame gives a bruised and beleaguered performance as the abused woman who wonders if murdering her loutish husband (Broderick Crawford) is the only way out of her domestic hell. DP Burnett Guffey adds noir panache to Lang's cruel and suffocating depiction of the eternal noir triangle.

UNITED STATES (1954) Dir. by Fritz Lang. 91 min.

Theatrical trailer

When he's fired from his job at the railroad, Carl Buckley (Broderick Crawford) asks his wife, Vicki (Gloria Grahame), to pay a visit to his boss, Owens (Grandon Rhodes), to try to earn his sympathies. It works, but Carl then assumes that Vicki and Owens are involved romantically, so he murders his boss in a jealous rage. Sick of her husband's violent ways, Vicki seduces Jeff (Glenn Ford), another worker at the railroad, hoping that she can convince him to murder her husband. 

Pre-order Human Desire.
