Overview

With its singular focus on the very best portrait photography of the Film Noir era, every page of this coffee table volume is rich in brooding atmosphere. The portraits were taken by premiere studio photographers like Robert Coburn, Ernest Bachrach and A.L. Whitey. Their remarkable ability to exaggerate the play of shadow and light to dramatic effect is the reason that their work still has the same ability to arrest the viewer as it did in the 1940s. The photographs remain some of the most innovative and striking portraits in the history of cinema.

"The design and execution of the book--good for a coffee table, not too bulky for the shelf--is grade A. Superior, soup to nuts.--Alex Belth ""Esquire"" Mean, moody and magnificent...Ava Gardner, Humphrey Bogart and Rita Hayworth were never more glamorous than in the photographs taken by studio photographers to publicise black and white thrillers in the 1940s and 50s.--Tony Nourmand ""Guardian"" Think of this sumptuous book not just as an homage to the genre, but a valuable catalogue for which essential noir movies to enjoy.--Ghalib Dhalla ""Indulge"""
