Good book, but a little thin on the descriptions of the films. Worth having as part of a larger library on film noir.

5.0 out of 5 stars A perfect Film Noir guide...
Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2005
Literate, accessible, and very, very thorough - Ottoson's

'Reference Guide' is the perfect top-of-the-t.v.-guide

for the noirhead in your life. Free of trimmings, the book

features numerous concise reviews of all the major (and many,

many minor) films noir - making it an essential library

addition for the buff, and a perfect jumping off point

for the novice. Highly recommended.
