En savoir plus sur le livre

Exploring the evolution of classic film noir from The Maltese Falcon to Sunset Boulevard, this work delves into the thematic and stylistic elements that define this uniquely American genre. It highlights the films' political undertones, portrayals of con artists, and the influence of America's puritanical roots on character development. Notably, it also acknowledges the contributions of German emigre directors whose European Expressionist backgrounds shaped the genre, bridging cultural contexts and artistic traditions.
