Toof Noir (From mymilktoof.blogspot.com)
As from what I understand about Film Noir being all detective, killing, betrayal and all, here is a story I extracted from the internet depicting Film Noir, but in a cute and fun way.
Toof Noir
Hey guys, have you seen my other sock?
"No, but..."
"We're on it."
"Don't worry Ma'am- We're professionals.
We'll find that sock, guaranteed."
"First we need to search for clues..."
"Hello clues, are you in here?
"Is that a clue?"
"These are clues we eat."
"Time to do some dirty work..."
"What do you see, Lardee?"
"A-ha! Money!"
"Bag up the evidence. This case is deeper than I expected."
"Sorry to pop in unannounced Carrot..."
"Have you seen this sock?"
"Not talking, eh?"
"What if we give you this?"
"How 'bout now?"
"Carrot is not very helpful."
"Freshly folded laundry - our last option."
"No dice."
"This is bad, Lardee. If we don't solve this case,
we're gonna lose all our street cred. What do we do?"
"Nobody will know the difference."
"Uh.... Guess what!
I think we found your..."
Oh hey guys, I was just going to tell you-
I found my other sock in the bathroom!
Thanks for looking!
"Quick Lardee, destroy the evidence."
"Another case solved!"
Understanding : Film Noir
“Between the Great Depression and the start of the
Cold War, Hollywood went noir, reflecting the worldly, weary, wised-up under
current of midcentury America. In classics such as Laura, Sweet Smell of
Success, and Double Indemnity, where the shadows of L.A. and New York pulse with
killers, corpses, and perilous romance, failure is not only a logical option but
a smart-talking seduction.” – Vanity Fair March 2007
Principally in film noir, it is the narrative and existential angst that drives a mostly male protagonist, who more often than not is the victim of a manipulative femme-fatale.
“Noir is premised on the audience’s need to see failure risked, courted, and sometimes won; the American dream becomes a nightmare, one strangely more seductive and euphoric than the optimism it repudiates… Noir provided losing with a mystique.”retrieved from : http://filmsnoir.net/what-is-film-noir#ixzz2EBluif2z
