    Very satisfied with my purchase! This rare book arrived in excellent condition—its beautifully aged pages are completely legible. I must thank the seller for offering it at such an agreeable price. The book was securely wrapped in shiny, new bubble wrap and placed in a box. The parcel was so light it seemed almost weightless, as if the book had been nestled on a pillow. Shipping speed was nothing short of excellent.

    Noir nugget-gold mine for film buffs

    Short but insightful text as well as a treasure trove of photographs and lobby cards and candid on set snaps highlight each movie's chapter. Highly recommend for the film noir enthusiast.
