Naremore's book is a an excellent text describing the context and major themes of film noir, a distinctly American and original art form with strong European roots. His writing is engaging, his scholarship peerless, and the insights are fantastic! Highly recommended. This is the book to start off with. Don't look back baby, don't ever look back.

Provides depth on sources for concept or noir and how it was shaped by writers, philosophers as well as filmmaker. Thoughtful and thought provoking, it's not for the faint of heart or those who do not want to go deep in to noir

Perfect!

The text with chapters by various authors writing in different styles can be a bit difficult to navigate, but the information is always detailed, interesting, and informative, with insights I have not found in other writings about film noir. Recommended for the serious student of the genre (that is or isn't a genre).

If your interest is understanding film noir this book is great and was used in a film noir class as the basic text.
