What we’re about

We shall get together through zoom to discuss Films Noirs that we would have seen on our own. The films chosen are available free or for a small fee in youtube or other platforms.

We are reaching our 90th event in March 2024 and while most films have been true FN, the range has been broad and some might rightly fall under the category of Film Blanc. This is thus a good time to highlight some traits that distinguish one from the other:
FN: Betrayal, Revenge, Cynicism, Lust, Pessimism, Passion, Melancholy, Alienation, Bleakness, Disillusionment, Ambiguity, Moral Corruption, Desperation, Paranoia,
FB: Fantasy, Romantic Love, Life Affirming, Optimistic, Bright, Spiritual, Sentimental, Positive Human Potential, Tolerance, Forgiveness, Acceptance, Feel-Good, Often Comedic, Often Musical.
