One of the most fascinating of classic
Hollywood genres is what critics have
termed the film noir or "dark cinema."
Often based on hard-boiled fiction, these
stories of pervasive criminality,
misogyny, and the failure of the American
dream engaged film viewers in the 40s and
50s. During the last three decades,
classic film noir has been revived as
neo-noir, spawing the production of a new
series of masterpieces. Films studied
include: Double Indemnity, Sorry, Wrong
Number, Out of the Past, Touch of Evil,
Chinatown, Body Heat, and The Last
Seduction. Lectures/Discussion/Viewings.
