BEEP-BEEP-BEEP ...Special Report: The black, gritty, style known as Film Noir a phrase which was first coined by French film critic Nino Frank in 1946. The French film critics noticed the trend of the dark, downbeat and black themes many American crime and detective films had when released in theaters in France following the war. In the company of: 'The Maltese Falcon', 'Murder, My Sweet', 'Double Indemnity', 'The Woman in the Window', and 'Laura'.

BEEP-BEEP-BEEP ...
Hop in the car and take a ride, as Hardboiled Detectives are on the rise. From Pat Novak to The Falcon, Michael Shayne to Box 13, there wasn't a crime left unturned, a case uncracked, with these fist in the jaw hitting blokes on the beat. Take it from ole Dick Powell, who played Philip Marlowe in the 1945 picture 'Murder, My Sweet', and as Richard Diamond on the 'Richard Diamond, Private Detective' Series on radio in 1949. Whether it's Gumshoes, Shamus, or P.I. there isn't a case to tough for these guys ... Baby.
Hate to cut it short folks, but I gotta a case see -- it seems Henry opened the door, to find Lucky Linda waiting on the other side. She was packing, but it wasn't no pistol. The brass knuckles hit him before he knew what happened. Now it seems the Case of the Missing Body is about to take place. Which of the two, I don't know. Just another case for Betty Blackie.
