Cigarjoe cellph Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Films Noir go from the mid 1930s to the present. You can even point to a few proto Noir before the 1930s. French Poetic Realist Noir mid 1930s to WWII, Classic British Noir from 1938 to early 1960s, Classic Hollywood Noir from 1940 to 1959 and this is where the majority of Noir Alley films are drawn from, Classic French Noir after WWII. Transitional Noir from 1959 to 1969. Neo Noir from 1969 to the present. Other International Noir can vary by county. Bound is Neo Noir and not in the TCM Library so it would cost money for TCM to screen it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Great Gildersleeve Posted April 20, 2021 Author Share Posted April 20, 2021 It’s weird, and I hope just a phase I’m going through, but I really like watching movies I love when they are scheduled. More specifically, when they are scheduled on TCM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one views film noir as having certain themes, as well as a visual style (like I do), instead of a genre, then there have been films from all eras that used said themes, as well as visual style. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
