## Description

Film Noir - which translates literally as "black film" or "black cinema" - was an epithet first used by French film critics to describe the new wave of downbeat American crime and detective films which were released in France immediately after WWII. Primarily filmed in a low-key, monochrome visual style that had roots in German Expressionist cinematography, they became increasingly prominent in the immediate post-war era, enjoying a Golden Age through to the late 50s. This unique set features the main title themes and/or signature music from 42 Noir classics, starting with John Huston's pivotal "The Maltese Falcon" (1941) and ending with Orson Welles' "Touch Of Evil" (1958), taking in benchmark movies like "The Big Sleep" (1946), "The Postman 8200;Always Rings Twice" (1946), "Key Largo" (1948), "White Heat" (1949), "The Third Man" (1949), "Strangers On A 8200;Train" (1951), "The Big Heat" (1953) and "Night Of The Hunter" (1955), in between. A truly unique compilation, this is a must-have for fans of the golden cinematic era.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    JUST FOR HISTORY
  

*by K***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 February 2021*

Two classic songs & five interesting more, makes this collection attractive. Pete Kelly's blues is not the original version. The rest compositions are partial recording form the movies and boring.

    TRIBUTE TO THE SHADOWY DARK PAST OF HOLLYWOOD CRIME MOVIES
  

*by A***K on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 August 2019*

This rather perplexing collection, with its title a play on words, must be intended solely for movie addicts who have spent a lifetime in dark cinemas or nowadays searching for DVD’s featuring Hollywood crime classics from the Golden Age when the studios used black and white film to roam dark alleys for gangster guys, honest heroes and ladies with a past. Such movies deserved their title “film noir” - a label awarded by French film critics to describe such low-key, hard hitting confections. This collection of no less than forty-two brief cues and orchestra themes is an authentic tribute although the former generally play for mere seconds whilst the composition work of the latter is ideally attributed to such luminaries as Bernard Herrman, Franz Waxman, David Raksin, Elmer Bernstein, Henry Mancini and Max Steiner.Difficult to categorise as a actual soundtrack music collection unless aimed at the obsessive film buff described above who buying this, will have a field day recalling those dark movies from the past. Excellent notes accompany this set and its varying sound quality from so many sources and which stands alone as a satisfying tribute to the shadowy presence of Hollywood’s greats.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Nice "cues" to memory
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on 5 April 2024*

A great collection of music from the golden age of Hollywood.Fidelity of each selection varies greatly; don't expect ideal sound.But in return for putting up with various levels of slight distortion, you can go to memory lane fueled on soundtracks that are as familiar as old friends.A fine late evening serenade.
