NOIR CITY: Boston returns to its home at the Brattle Theatre, June 9-11 with eleven films celebrating their 75th anniversaries. FNF board member, film professor, and author Foster Hirsch will introduce the festival screenings. NOIR CITY opens with a double feature of Robert Siodmak's "Cry of the City", co-starring Victor Mature and Richard Conte, and Jules Dassin's "The Naked City", shot on location in New York City, starring Barry Fitzgerald. Five films will run on Saturday and four films will play on Sunday.
Saturday's lineup starts with "He Walked by Night", an influential police procedural, directed by Alfred L. Werker and an uncredited Anthony Mann, photographed by perhaps the greatest film noir cinematographer, John Alton, and starring Richard Basehart. "Hollow Triumph" follows, directed by Steve Sekely, starring Joan Bennett and Paul Henreid. Rounding out the afternoon films is "The Spiritualist", lensed by John Alton, featuring Turhan Bey, Lynn Bari, and Cathy O'Donnell. The evening films kick off with John Farrow's "The Big Clock," starring Ray Milland, Charles Laughton, and George Macready. Henry Hathaway's newspaper noir "Call Northside 777", the first film shot entirely on location in Chicago, follows with noteworthy performances by Jimmy Stewart and Richard Conte.
Sunday begins with a screening of Douglas Sirk's "Sleep, My Love" starring Claudette Colbert and featuring Don Ameche playing against type as a murderous husband. The second film of the day — Preston Sturges' black comedy "Unfaithfully Yours" also features an actor playing against type, Rex Harrison, as a murderous husband. The final evening of the festival begins with Anatole Litvak's adaption of Lucille Fletcher's renowned radio play, "Sorry, Wrong Number", starring Barbara Stanwyck and Burt Lancaster. The festival of 1948 films finishes with a screening of George Sherman's "Larceny" featuring the incredible lineup of John Payne, Dan Duryea, Shelley Winters, and Joan Caulfield.

You all believe you’re wielding magic. I must perform a deeper analysis, but I see this power you harness is in reality scraps of creation. Like the random errors in computer code, discarded and forgotten... left to be picked up and used by those who also find themselves discarded and forgotten.

Sorry if this is intrusive, but have you tried Watertown Watch and Clock Repair? They were recommended to me by a local jeweler and they're only about a 15-20 minute walk from the last stop of the MBTA 73 bus, so they might be worth a shot. Depending on the size of your clock, that might be still be too far from transit, of course.
No no, I appreciate the advice!
It's a very small clock; fits in my work satchel. But that may still be a rather tricky odyssey depending on how complicated getting the 73 is for me- I already have to walk a mile to my nearest T stop for the train and several buses. It may end up as a car-necessary trip despite being not that far from me geographically.
Curse this anti-mechanical-clock society driving horlogists out of business until only a few are left and they're all very far-flung!
(There IS at least one place in the city proper that claims to repair antique clocks, but all of their reviews are only for replacing batteries/crystals on modern wristwatches. So...disinclined to take my clock to them.)
