Description

A collection of print books and DVDs from one of Hollywood's most stylistic eras: film noir mysteries of the 1940s and 50s. Often adapted from hardboiled detective fiction bestsellers, these films are known for their gritty dialogue, urban settings, and flawed characters amid low lighting, creating shadows, and a disoriented camera style.
