Film noir is often thought of as a uniquely American genre, yet in the post-war period it spread to many parts of Europe, Asia and Latin America. This new course, illustrated with numerous extracts and complete films, takes an international perspective in exploring the various ways that film noir manifested itself in different countries, from Argentina to Japan, stopping off in the UK, France, Spain, Italy, Sweden and many others.
This course is a follow-up to last term’s Out of the Past – Film Noir and its Origins, but it is not necessary to have attended that course to enjoy this one.
