On this weeks special edition of Curators Corner, John Popp joins National Firearms Museum Senior Curator Phil Schreier for another Phil Noir segment in honor of November Film Noir Month. Schreier offers an overview of this dark, classic movie genre and displays a rare civilian model of the 1911 Colt .45, which features heavily in such noir masterpieces as The Maltese Falcon.
