Bøger af Sheri Chinen (Assistant Professor Biesen

As in her earlier study of film noir, Blackout: World War II and the Origins of Film Noir, Biesen draws on extensive primary research in studio archives to situate her examination within a historical, industrial, and cultural context.

Biesen brings prodigious archival research, accessible prose, and imaginative insights to both well-known films noir of the wartime period-The Maltese Falcon, The Big Sleep, and Double Indemnity-and others often overlooked or underrated-Scarlet Street, Ministry of Fear, Phantom Lady, and Stranger on the Third Floor.
