In the wake of the remarkable success of Film Noir Reader, this new
collection further explores a genre of limitless fascination -- and
one that continues to inspire and galvanise the latest generation
of film-makers. Again heavily illustrated, with close to 150
stills, Film Noir Reader 2 is organised much like the earlier
volume. It begins with 'More Seminal Essays', including a New York
Times attack on crime pictures, written more than half a century
ago, before the French had even given the genre its name; a look at
its early development by the noted French director Claude Chabrol;
and an analysis, by the American critic Stephen Farber, of how film
noir reflects the violence and 'Bitch Goddess' values of
contemporary society.
