Noir
The term Film Noir (French for "black film") was coined by critic Nino Frank in 1946, but was rarely used by film makers, critics or fans until several decades later. The classic era of film noir is usually dated to a period between the early 1940s and the late 1950s. Typically American crime dramas or psychological thrillers, films noir had a number of common themes and plot devices, and many distinctive visual elements. Characters were often conflicted antiheroes, trapped in a difficult situation and making choices out of desperation or nihilistic moral systems. Visual elements included low-key lighting, striking use of light and shadow, and unusual camera placement. Neo Noir Unlike classic noirs, neo-noir films are aware of modern circumstances and technology—details that were typically absent or unimportant to the plot of classic film noir. Modern themes employed in these films include identity crises, memory issues and subjectivity, and technological problems and their social ramifications. Similarly, the term can be applied to other works of fiction that incorporate these elements. Examples: The Last Seduction The Limey The Long Goodbye The Lookout Lost Highway The Man Who Wasn't There Max Payne Memento Miller's Crossing Mulholland Drive Mulholland Falls No Country for Old Men One False Move The Postman Always Rings Twice Pulp Fiction Red Rock West Reservoir Dogs Romeo Is Bleeding SE7EN Sin City |
