I have already shared news about Red and Black, a forthcoming programme on the Hollywood Left/leftism and the blacklist/McCarthyism, which will take place at the Locarno Film Festival from 5–15 August. (Previous posts included the accompanying podcast series, which you can still access here.)
Now I am delighted to share the complete programme.
The retrospective features 26 films that will be screened in 35mm (including several photochemical restorations), one 16mm print, and the remainder in excellent DCP presentations. In total, fifty or fifty one titles.
Highlights include very rare films by Losey, Vorhaus and Odets; brand-new restorations of A King in New York and The Hat; newly scanned, rarely seen period newsreels; and the world premieres of two documentaries: Dangerous Citizen: The Life and Times of Abraham Polonsky and La Liste Noire d’Hollywood: Par ceux qui l’ont vécue, about a remarkable 1983 gathering in Los Angeles attended by many of the last surviving victims of the Hollywood blacklist.
