December 14, 2018 - January 3, 2019
Tourneur’s landmark noir boasts one of Robert Mitchum’s most iconic roles and is singularly rich with twists, turns, and profound ideas concerning the complex relationship between the past, the present, and fate.
Tourneur’s landmark noir boasts one of Robert Mitchum’s most iconic roles. He is magnetic as Jeff, the low-key proprietor of a gas station in small-town California. When some ill-intentioned characters from Jeff’s shadowy past arrive on the scene looking for him, it sets off a riveting chain of events that reunites him with Kathie (Jane Greer, one of the all-time great femme fatales), the slippery girlfriend of powerful and shady Whit Sterling (Kirk Douglas). Out of the Past is singularly rich with twists, turns, and profound ideas concerning the complex relationship between the past, the present, and fate.
