A collection of articles, photographs, reproduction posters, essays and stories examining and surrounding the influence of Los Angeles on the film noir genre. The authors illustrate how these films use LA's diverse cityscape and architecture - not to mention it's outlying suburbs - to convey a vision of urban corruption and existential fatalism.
