In this essential study of film noir editors Alain Silver and James
Ursini select the most significant and influential articles on the
movement from their highly respected Film Noir Reader series and
assemble them into a single convenient heavily illustrated volume.
Still included of course are many rare early articles and such
seminal essays as Borde and Chaumeton's Towards a Definition of
Film Noir from EPanorama du Film Noir AmericainE Paul Schrader's
Notes on Film Noir and Paint It Black: the Family Tree of the Film
Noir by Raymond Durgnat. With newer studies such as Lounge Time by
Vivian Sobchack Manufacturing Heroines in Classic Noir Films by
Sheri Chinen Biesen and Voices from the Deep: Film Noir as
Psychodrama J. P. Telotte this collection of over 30 articles
probes this most influential American film movement from varying
angles: formalist feminist structuralist sociological and
stylistic; narrative-thematic historical and even from the point of
view of a pure aficionado. There is something in this volume for
every student or devotee of film noir. Plus like the readers that
have proven an invaluable tool for academics planning a syllabus it
can serve as the most complete core text for any of the myriad of
film noir courses taught throughout the world.
