As time changed so did Film Noir, it developed into Neo Noir. Neo Noir took the codes and conventions of Film Noir but modernized aspects of the genre; soundtrack, story lines and themes were updated to apply to a new modern audience. Directors now have a lot more freedom to express themes then in the past, this has allowed Neo Noir to include scenes that were possibly too controversial in the past. Below are examples of a few Neo Noirs from 1970 to present.
Sin City. (2005) |
Taxi Driver. (1976) |
Pulp Fiction. (1994) |
Chinatown. (1974) |
Raging Bull. (1980) |
Memento. (2000) |
Reservoir Dogs. (1991) |
