Mean Streets and Raging Bulls explores how, since its apparent demise in the ... Citiți mai mult

    A Very Short Introduction

    de Michael Wood ...
    Seria seria Very Short Introductions

The stories are often offered to us as quite false, frankly and beautifully fantastic, and they are sometimes insistently said to be true. But they are stories in both cases, and there are very few films, even in ... Citiți mai mult

  • Historical Dictionary of Film Noir

    de Andrew Spicer ...
    Seria seria Historical Dictionaries of Literature and the Arts
    Film noir-literally "black cinema"-is the label customarily given to a group of black and white American films, mostly crime thrillers, made between 1940 and 1959.
