Subject: RE: BS: Old black & white film noir favorites
Why aren't Gangster Films the same as Noirs?
Why aren't Psychokiller films Noirs?
Why aren't films such as 'Heimat' Noirs?
Is 'Night of the Hunter' a noir?
I don't think so. but the reasons why they are not- good (or excellent) films as they are are -is really interesting.
As is the question: what genre is 'The Night of The Hunter'?
