Next Episode: 328. Frame Rate: Nightcrawler (Feat. Jason Pargin)
Abe walks us through the early 2000's and the development of that era’s neo-noir look, how technology facilitated its dominance over the box office, and why Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was both an adopter and a trailblazer in this visual movement. Also, Jim Broadbent was a chair in this movie. Name another movie that’s true. Thought so.
The book that Abe references in the episode is “The Development of Post-war Literary and Cinematic Noir” by Lee Horsley.
