Wednesday May 20
Double Feature! 2 films. 1 low price.

THE LAST CROOKED MILE
Even though she’ll always be best remembered as the demonic Vera in “Detour,” Ann Savage turns in a great performance as a slinky cabaret singer in this energetic B noir about the frantic chase for $300,000 in stolen loot, culminating in a wild scene at a sleazy carnival. Also in the cast are Don “Red” Barry, Sheldon Leonard, Adele Mara, John Dehner. Directed by Phil Ford. 67 mins. 1946. Showtime: 8:00.

VIOLENCE
From the director of the cult fave “Decoy” comes this swiftly paced poverty row noir about a pseudo-patriotic scam organization—in reality an odious Fascist hate group—trying to recruit disillusioned war vets into its fold! A girl reporter and an undercover agent try to bust it up! With Nancy Coleman, Micahel O’Shea, Sheldon Leonard. Directed by Jack Bernhard. 72 mins. 1947. Showtimes; 6:35 & 9:20.
