After several seasonal series of the Noir Canon at AFS, we move into part one of the Neo-Noir Canon, in which we examine some of the films that have built upon the stylistic framework of Film Noir.
Adapted by Walter Mosley from his novel of the same name, this film features Denzel Washington as Easy Rawlins, who finds employment in post-WWII Los Angeles as a private investigator as he traverses the racial and social strata of the City of Angels trying to find a woman (Jennifer Beals) who is sought by a number of unsavory parties. With a breakout performance by Don Cheadle as Easy’s friend Mouse, who gets involved in the convoluted hunt.
