In October, 2022, Reel Art Press released a brand new book that shines a spotlight on classic film noir. Aptly titled, 'Film Noir Portraits', this 256-page hardcover book was written by two noted cinephiles, Tony Nourmand and Paul Duncan, and includes 240 stylish images showcasing films from the aforementioned genre, such as 'The Night of the Hunter', 'Double Indemnity', and 'The Lady from Shanghai', to name but a few, along with a detailed description of each one. All of these images were carefully selected from one of the world's most exclusive archives of entertainment photography, mptvimages, some of which have never been seen before or were previously unpublished. Here ๐, have a look at the following gallery for a sneak peek at some of these images.
