{"product_id":"more-than-night-james-naremore-9780520254022","title":"More Than Night: Film Noir in Its Contexts","description":"\"Film noir\" evokes memories of stylish, cynical, black-and-white movies from the 1940s and '50s-melodramas about private eyes, femmes fatales, criminal gangs, and lovers on the run. James Naremore's prize-winning book discusses these pictures, but also shows that the central term is more complex and paradoxical than we realize. It treats noir as a term in criticism, as an expression of artistic modernism, as a symptom of Hollywood censorship and politics, as a market strategy, as an evolving style, and as an idea that circulates through all the media. This new and expanded edition of \u003ci\u003eMore Than Night \u003c\/i\u003econtains an additional chapter on film noir in the twenty-first century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Naremore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520254023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520254022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/14\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 408\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 1.00d","brand":"James Naremore","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43992210964735,"sku":"9780520254022","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a35dd2f3-dfae-4a89-960e-53f1f6b289e4.jpg?v=1683314670","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/more-than-night-james-naremore-9780520254022","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
