WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT?

Welcome to PRIVATEYE, my personal site dedicated and themed around film noir! It also contains other sites dedicated to my general (specific) interests. Feel free to look around, but don't touch anything... Or should you? Also, I've given your mouse a cigar. Click & hold to take a good old puff.

RESOURCES

  • Classic Film Noir: A great site filled with reviews for classic and some neo noirs, plus a good amount of analyses of elements present in the genre such as fascism, smoking and general film noir theory.
  • This blog lists a huge number of noirs you can watch right now, for free. (Archived)

YOU KNOW WHERE TO FIND ME...

If you have any questions, inquiries, hatemail or you just wanna start a conversation, feel free to reach me through Tumblr (@cherrytastiq) anytime. I'm also on Twitter, but I'm not as active on there and never check DMs.
