The immensely popular NOIR CITY: CHICAGO returns this September with "Face the Music!’, a 19-film program of crime and mystery films featuring... musicians! Let’s go to the opening-night film “Sweet Smell of Success” now considered one of best films of the 1950s—as well as the definitive cinematic statement on the dangers of media corruption. Burt Lancaster seethes through a thinly-veiled portrait of powerful New York gossip columnist Walter Winchell as J.J. Hunsecker, and Tony Curtis gives perhaps his finest performance as the two-faced, sycophantic press agent Sidney Falco.
Please buy your ticket [ONLINE HERE](https://musicboxtheatre.com/films-and-events/sweet-smell-of-success) It’s opening night. IT WILL SELL OUT.
AFTER THE SHOW, AS USUAL WE’LL HAVE DINNER AT D’AGOSTINO PIZZERIA (ADDISON AND SOUTHPORT).
More information soon.
