The Criterion Channel in November Features Howard Hawks, Trent Reznor, Blackout Noir, and More.

      November, or Noirvember, continues with The Criterion Channel's exploration of every known subgenre through their "Blackout Noir" series, which pairs Terence Fisher's 1954 film of the same name with titles like In a Lonely Place, The Blue Gardenia, and more obscure options. Not featured in this selection are The Criminal Code and Scarface, which are included in a comprehensive retrospective of Howard Hawks—make sure not to miss Barbary Coast! Additionally, a series on Trent Reznor showcases his contributions to Natural Born Killers, Lost Highway, The Social Network, and Bones and All.

      This month’s retrospectives are particularly extensive, featuring a program dedicated to Werner Herzog that surveys his filmography, blending well-known Klaus Kinski collaborations with lesser-known works. A Jafar Panahi program offers a more focused exploration but is still highly valued. Adam Piron has organized a series showcasing Indigenous non-fiction films, while a retrospective on pioneering African American filmmakers spans the years from 1915 to 1946. The segment “Family Reunions” uniquely features Charles Burnett, Arnaud Desplechin, and Thomas Vinterberg alongside Zach Braff; Hannah and Her Sisters is for those still thrilled by Woody Allen's appearance on Club Random.

      Criterion Editions have a busy month with the release of Dogfight, Cairo Station, Compensation, You Can Count on Me, Scarface, Born in Flames, Read My Lips, and The Beat That My Heart Skipped, along with restorations of Pink Narcissus, The Sealed Soil, and The Black and the Green making their debut. Lastly, the latest Adventures in Moviegoing focuses on Josh Brolin.
