European Cinemas in the Television Age

This book provides an overview of twentieth- and twenty-first-century noir and fatalist film practice from 1945 onwards. It demonstrates the ways in which American cinema has inculcated a climate of fear in our daily lives, as reinforced, starting in the 1950s, by television, and later video cassettes, and the Internet, to create, by the early twenty-first century a hypersurveillant atmosphere in which no one can avoid the barrage of images that continually assault our senses.
