A crash course in film noir

Film Noir: Explore the dark side
The Origins of Film Noir: A cash course in film noir its origins and influences

This primer on classic film noir crystallizes a set of visual, narrative, and thematic elements already present in European movements and in American hard‑boiled fiction, then refracts them through postwar U.S. anxieties about crime, gender, and social change. The modules effectively give you a mini‑syllabus: starting from noir, out to its literary and cinematic antecedents, then forward to its legacy in neo‑noir and contemporary art cinema.
