Entertaining, informative, and stylishly written, A GIRL AND A GUN is the first comprehensive listing of film noir - both classic and modern, foreign and domestic - available on video. In addition to scores of incisive film reviews it offers canny analysis of psychological and social subtexts in each film, little known production anecdotes, and probing insights into the directors, writers, and actors.
