From the seething internal aftermath of the German Occupation to
the stylish radicalism of the New Wave and the slick post-modern
fantasies of today, French directors such as Melville, Becker,
Godard, Truffaut, and Chabrol have adapted American crime movie
conventions to create their own cinema of good and evil. Fully
illustrated with stills from a wide selection of movies, "French
Film Noir" also contains a complete filmography listing over 100
films.
Robin Buss writes for several newspapers and magazines. He has
translated Jean Cocteau's "The Art of Cinema" for Marion Boyars. He
lives in the UK.
