What is Film Noir? I'm so glad you asked. The movies that are considered to be Film Noir are from the early 1940s to the late 1950s. They are black and white, and are considered "black." Meaning, the movies are usually dark. With gangsters and crime, with drama. They are low key, with love and suspense.
Movies included in the term "Film Noir" is as followed:
The Big Sleep (1946)
The Maltese Falcon (1941)
Laura (1944)
The Third Man (1949)
The Letter (1940)
Rebecca (1940)
Citizen Kane (1941)
Christmas Holiday (1944)
The Blue Dahlia (1946)
Notorious (1946)
The Postman Always Rings Twice (1946)
Dark Passage (1947)
The Paradine Case (1947)
Call Northside 777 (1948)
Key Largo (1948)
The actors that I think of when I think of Film Noir is Robert Mitchum, Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall.
