We just started to watch Out of the Past in class. The film is in the film noir category because of many techniques like low key lighting, pessimistic mood, and its in black and white. I thought the movie would be bad because it’s in black and white and I don’t those types of films. Also, film noir is noted for having a pessimistic mood so I thought it would be depressing. I like the movie so far because it keeps me wanting to watch more and find out what happens to the main character and its not very depressing.
