The Film Noir Foundation is a non-profit organization focused on education about the cultural, historical, and artistic significance of film noir as an international cinematic movement. Its core activity involves locating and preserving films that are at risk of being lost or damaged, and ensuring that high-quality prints remain available for theatrical exhibition to future generations. The Foundation acts as a bridge between film companies and repertory cinemas that screen 35mm prints, with ticket sales supporting the creation of new prints and preserving titles that risk disappearing from public view. Based in Alameda, California, the organization has a mission to facilitate renewed circulation of these films, which can lead to wider distribution in pristine formats for film enthusiasts and researchers. Over time, it has funded and produced restorations of a number of classic titles from the noir era, in collaboration with partner institutions, and continues to promote a revival and accessibility of these works.
