Each November, movie fans celebrate the hallmark antiheroes, femme fatales, moral complexities, and the stunning black & white cinematography of film noir. Free popcorn will be served, and a discussion will follow each screening. In The Breaking Point (Michael Curtiz, 1950, 97 minutes) John Garfield plays Harry Morgan, a charter boat captain who takes on dangerous cargo, then faces criminal propositions and playful come-ons, stretching both his morality and his marriage. Based on Ernest Hemingway’s To Have and Have Not, Hemingway himself called it the best film adaptation of any of his books and The New York Times said “all of the character, color and cynicism of Mr. Hemingway’s lean and hungry tale are wrapped up in this realistic picture.”
