Tracey Snelling’s Woman on the Run, on view in the Upper-Level Galleries from September 9, 2011, through February 5, 2012, provides a film-noir-like setting for a crime story in which the mysterious Veronica Hayden is sought for questioning in her husband’s murder. Viewers of Snelling’s installation play the part of witness, actor, and detective, and are charged with figuring out of what type of woman Veronica Hayden really is. Inspired by this constructed alternate world, the Frist Center has planned a five-part film series exploring femme fatales and their identities: are they are heroines, duplicitous dames, or something in-between?

About the film:
A private eye evades his past by hiding out in a small, non-descript town and running a gas station until one day his past catches up with him. Left with no other choice, he returns to a world of danger, corruption, double crosses, and tricky women in order to finally put his past to rest. Stars Robert Mitchum, Jane Greer, and Kirk Douglas. Directed by Jacques Tourneur, 1947. 97 minutes. 35mm. Not Rated.
