From \u003cem\u003ePoint Blank\u003c\/em\u003e (1998) to \u003cem\u003eOldboy\u003c\/em\u003e (2003), from \u003cem\u003eGet Carter\u003c\/em\u003e (2000) to \u003cem\u003e36 Quai des Orf?vres\u003c\/em\u003e (2004), from Catherine Tramell to Max Payne, neo-noir is a transnational global phenomenon. This wide-ranging collection maps out the terrain, combining genre, stylistic and textual analysis with Marxist, feminist, psychoanalytic and industrial approaches. Essays discuss works from the US, UK, France, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong and New Zealand; key figures, such as David Lynch, the Coen Brothers, Quentin Tarantino and Sharon Stone; major conventions, such as the femme fatale, paranoia, anxiety, the city and the threat to the self; and the use of sound and colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMark Bould is editor of \u003ci\u003eScience Fiction Film and Television \u003c\/i\u003eand author of \u003ci\u003eFilm Noir: From Berlin to Sin City\u003c\/i\u003e (2005), \u003ci\u003eThe Cinema of John Sayles: Lone Star\u003c\/i\u003e (2008), \u003ci\u003eRed Planets: Marxism and Science Fiction\u003c\/i\u003e (2009), and \u003ci\u003eThe Routledge Companion to Science Fiction\u003c\/i\u003e (2009).
