A Discussion on LA Noir.

LA Noir is not a term you hear a lot of, and because of this i found it difficult to research for this piece of writing. It is Similar to Film Noir in the way that its key Element is Distinctive Lighting however LA Noir is shot in colour, usually with a hint of chrome in the colour. Similar to Film Noir, Presence of Femme Fatales are common in LA Noir also. They're seductive dress sense is alluring to the Male characters, they are objectified by the men as Sex Objects. LA Noir Commonly uses Binary opposites such as good and evil. An Example of this is in the Opening on LA confidential the male character talks about "Mr Fire and Mr Ice" they're used to created elements of opposition and drama.
