20th Century Fox Film Noir refers to a collection of films released on DVD by 20th Century Fox. The series, a spinoff of the earlier Fox Studio Classics line, was premiered in March 2005, with the release of the inaugural titles Call Northside 777, Laura and Panic in the Streets. Like the earlier Studio Classics line, Fox Film Noir DVDs are numbered on their spines.
Boomerang was recalled shortly before its release, although a small number of copies had already made their way onto store shelves. A re-release has been announced for September 2008.
Black Widow, Call Northside 777, Dangerous Crossing and Laura had been reissued and repackaged in Fox's Classic Quad series.
Currently, three film noir titles released by 20th Century Fox are available on DVD, but are not released by Fox as part of the Film Noir series. Instead, they are selections in The Criterion Collection DVD line. The films are Night and the City, Pickup on South Street and Thieves' Highway.
