Film Noir Guide: 745 Films of the Classic Era 1940-1959 - Page 4

This is a complete list of all the titles listed in the book "Film Noir Guide - 745 Films of the Classic Era, 1940-1959" by Michael F. Keaney. This book is by far one of the most useful and well thought out book in the subject of Film Noir movies ever published. I Haven't come across another encyclopedic type of film book, which would offer such a wide and extremely useful way of categorizing Film Noir titles under various themes and "sub genres" - which I have to say is a brilliant idea! -However, it must be pointed out that, although IMDb doesn't recognize all of the movies listed in Keaney's book as "Film Noir" - it is most imperative to remember just how difficult task it is to categorize what is film noir and what isn't. In any case, I would still recommend this book unreserved to anyone interested of Film Noir.
