Co-presented with SF IndieFest
The October dusk falls early . . . which makes this the perfect time to explore that duskiest genre, noir, through the lens of both film and comics. In this double feature movie and literature extravaganza,
Robert Mailer Anderson (
My Fairy Godfather) and
Peter Hoey (
In Perpetuity) will discuss their latest graphic novels, both of which have their roots in the world of film. In Anderson’s case, the inspiration is SF’s beloved Castro Theatre; for Hoey, it’s the seedy Hollywood of classic noir. Their conversation, moderated by CCA's
Justin Hall, will be bookended by two of Anderson’s films:
Windows on the World (which directly inspired Anderson’s first graphic novel) and
Pig Hunt.
