In doing so, it identifies the emergence of a specific cinematic figure the intervallic noir protagonist exposed to the redemptive force of his or her own passion. Significantly, the book contextualises the iconography of film noir in relation to prior art-historical visual traditions, in particular earlier representations of melancholia and the saturnine, locating noir against a much broader canvas than has been the norm. Examining central noir films of the classic and modern era (The Killers, The Man Who Wasnt There) as well as films at the peripheries of noir (from Jacques Tourneurs Cat People to Wong Kar Wais 2046), the book locates a series of iconographic gestures, performance traditions and affective tonalities at once specific to noir and yet resonant with a deeper cultural and philosophical heritage. It is a meditation that uniquely grapples with the look and the feel of noir, and which dares to detect a unique quality of beatitude that runs through a certain strain of noir films. In doing so, it illuminates why film noir remains one of the most provocative and affecting visual milieus of our time....2074908The Dark Interval637707https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-dark-interval/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1872517/7493d5a4-9776-472e-8b90-b3883e7fe126.jpg?v=638342101980230000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20229781501349690_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_Invoking key concepts from the philosophical writings of Gilles Deleuze and Giorgio Agamben, The Dark Interval examines a subtle but distinct iconography of passivity, stillness and profound self-affection that recurs across noir films of every era.
