While the descriptive term “noir” is readily used and understood today, the films noirs from the “Classic” period of the 1940s and 1950s are much less well-known. Yet the intense period of US production before the arrival of television produced dozens of worthwhile films which can be identified as noirs. This study highlights their considerable qualities: as stylish entertainment, as artistic creations, and as illustrators of immediate post-war concerns and trends.The book examines the background of those involved in making films noirs along with the influence of war, censorship and changes in attitudes. It looks at the powerful source material for the films, their remarkable visual style, and their original approach to structure and characterisation. While a few of these films enjoyed continued prominence, the majority faded from view, until a new film-school generation came to admire them.These films provide an insight into many contemporary concerns in 1940s America: the impact of world war, the effect of urbanisation and economic uncertainty on individuals and communities, the increasing agency of women, the awareness of sexuality, greater interest in psychological explanations, and a more cynical attitude to authority figures.The book includes a select list of key films from the 1940s and 1950s.
