Hard-boiled private dicks, irresistible femme fatales, desperate men on the run, and a whole lot of cigarette smoking. And let's not forget the shadows, shadows everywhere. These are the hallmarks of Film Noir, a wholly unique genre of Hollywood filmmaking that dove into the gutters of the 1940s and 50s and emerged with some of the truly greatest crime and mystery dramas of all-time.
This August, the Movie Dearest Calendar Wallpaper salutes the anti-heroes, shady dames and cold hearted killers of the best of Noir cinema, all in glorious black and white.
