Neo Noir



Neo noir is a genre directly related to film noir, neo noir is basically film noir but with more modern shooting and storytelling while many themes and lighting techniques and Mise en Sene from contemporary noir are used, some examples of neo noir are: blade runner 1981, Brick 2005 and U turn 1997. Contemporary noir themes of cynicism, suspicion, dead ends and darkness are used in neo noir, some have chosen to be colourless like Sin City despite technology allowing otherwise preserving the contemporary noir ambiance and classic feel of grittiness and claustrophobia.
