Retracing the Footsteps of David Goodis
RETRACING THE FOOTSTEPS OF DAVID GOODIS  DOCUMENTARY · 17 MIN · RESTORED 2026

The noir novelist behind Dark Passage and Shoot the Piano Player, retraced through his Philadelphia streets. Rescanned, regraded, remixed.

Hell Gate Narrows
HELL GATE NARROWS  SHORT · 15 MIN · WIDESCREEN ANAMORPHIC

Hardboiled PI noir — a busted cop feeds the tide at high water. Practical locations, available-light night work, real streets.

Under The Gun
UNDER THE GUN  SHORT · 6 MIN · B&W

Monochrome noir, narration-driven, cut to the bone. Hard-contrast grade struck from the original photography.

Guns, guitars and graves.

Guns, guitars and graves.

Hardboiled crime. Nothing else. Nine pictures on the slate, most of them owned outright, every one of them script-locked and shootable now.

Crime is the genre that sells in every language. It is what buyers in forty territories are hunting, and it is the only thing this company makes. No studio to ask, no partners to unwind, no development purgatory — the pictures get made because nobody has to approve them.

Name the picture. We will talk.
