The For the Love of Film (Noir) Blogathon (and fundraiser) – organized by Marilyn Ferdinand<\/a> and The Self-Styled Siren<\/a> has been raging on this week, including a rocking mention in the New York Times. I have a piece I am going to contribute, but wanted to point you in the direction of The Siren’s compilation of links so far<\/a>. An incredible turnout. I have so much reading to do, so much catching up. LOOK at that glorious list of links. It’s a great project. It’s a fundraiser, with raffle prizes: You can donate to the Film Noir Foundation<\/a> through this link<\/a>. Last year, the very same blogathon raised more than $30,000, all of which went to the National Film Preservation Foundation, and you can read the exciting results of what that money went towards here<\/a>. Of course, if you were paying attention to the news at that time, you would have read about it. It was everywhere.<\/p>\n

Greg Ferrara, of Cinema Styles<\/a>, has created an eerie amazing promotional video (with incredible music) for the Film Noir Blogathon. <\/p>\n
