Reviews
"Biesen adds a new perspective that enhances scholarship on the subject and makes this book a must." -- Choice, "Ms Biesen describes too how film noir drew on societal anxieties as Americans faced fear, loss and shortages during the war and viewed ever-more-harrowing newsreel footage. 'As life on the homefront became increasingly hard-boiled, ' she writes, 'so too did American film.'" -- Nina Ayoub, Chronicle of Higher Education, "Biesen adds a new perspective that enhances scholarship on the subject and makes this book a must.

Biesen uses her research into studio archives, the films' attendant publicity and the contemporary press to bring alive the wartime period of film noir and its transformation into a post-war genre for dealing with troubled veterans returning home, the coming of the Cold War, nuclear angst and the effects of McCarthyism on Hollywood and the nation at large., Ms Biesen describes too how film noir drew on societal anxieties as Americans faced fear, loss and shortages during the war and viewed ever-more-harrowing newsreel footage.
