I really enjoy noir – detective fiction of the C20th and the (mostly) black and white films made from that fiction, Noir was a genre made and created, initially, as a response to the depression of the 1930s and the economic deprivation and social malaise that resulted. Noir – a response to the unfair power structure that existed.
In noir, crime is a metaphor for the injury done to the social fabric by an unfair power structure. The moral universe was inplicit in all this but nowhere observed.
Meanwhile we all want to know, in the name of entertainment, what happens next….
So, on a separate page of my website is Noir!
