## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A delight for noir fans
*by R***K on November 21, 2017*

This book is a delight. It's absolutely crammed with pictures, details, observations, information, trivia, facts, and theories and... yeah, it is completely wonderful.The only real problem with this book is that now I have dozens more noir films on my to-be-watched list. Such a problem to have, huh?Basically, the whole book is essay after essay devoted to the visual aspects of film noir. The essays have titles like "Rooms like Reveries: Interiors and Interiority in Film Noir" (Imogen Sara Smith), "The Gangster and Film Noir" (Alain Silver), "Fragments of the Mirror: Hitchcock's Noir Landscape" (Alain Silver), and "Women's Song and Dance Performances in Film Noir" (Christophe Gelly and Delphine Letort) -- you can see how enticing they are to someone who enjoys this film style!By far, my favorite essay was "Nothingness and Purpose: Light and shadow in It's a Wonderful Life" by Todd Erickson. I've always felt that Wonderful Life was a much darker movie that it gets credit for, and so much darker than most Christmas movies -- I heartily agree with Erickson that it has noir in its heart.If you're a fan of film noir and love learning about how movies are made, love delving into what's going on below the surface of a story, or just generally love reading about movies, you will probably enjoy this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid collection of research and analysis

Silver and Ursini are seasoned editors and you can count on their books being worth your time and money. Proud to author one of the essays in this volume.
