Kiss Me Deadly

This movie was an interesting film and to be considered as film noir was just a fitting one. Because of the way the movie was made and the plot outline and such, this movie was a perfect fit for the film noir category. One example of this is how the movie is quite a mystery overall. In the beginning we meet a woman and is killed quite early and the only message she left behind was "remember me". With a beginning such as that, you can't help but think of questions as to who was she, what was she after or doing, why was she killed, and so forth. Such questions are driven because of the way film noir's are made, which is to be mysterious. Not only that but the movie was also shot in different contrasts of light. With many scenes being in daylight and such, the significant scenes all had lighting that focused on the main event and what was going on during the scene. The film was quite an interesting watch even though it was quite random with the main character being a scammer but takes on the role of a private investigator in order to find out who the woman in the beginning was and what was behind her death. The movie overall fit the typical film noir aspects as well as adding in its own theme of science fiction was wasn't typical for film noir's but nevertheless, the film overall had fit the noir themes.
