Driven to Darkness: Jewish Emigre Directors and the Rise of Film Noir

Buch

Driven to Darkness explores the influence of Jewish emigre directors and the development of this genre. While filmmakers such as Fritz Lang, Billy Wilder, Otto Preminger, and Edward G. Ulmer have been acknowledged as crucial to the noir canon, the impact of their Jewishness on their work has remained largely unexamined until now.
