Wednesday, September 22, 2010 – Noir Beach

The corner of Washington Boulevard and Pacific Avenue in Venice Beach

A September afternoon at the corner of Washington Boulevard and Pacific Avenue in Venice Beach, where Orson Welles filmed much of Touch of Evil (1958) – the last of the classic noir films. It still has that seedy noir feel.
