1. In the article, Chris Pula of
Warner Bros provides the following statement “’the bulk of the audience who
enjoys film noir are directors, film students, critics, and the most ardent,
generally upscale film enthusiast.’” In
addition, most noir films that Ansen discusses are independent films rather
than big-budget studio blockbusters. Why
does noir seem to appeal to a limited audience today instead of enjoying a
wider following?

Why the noir seems to appear to a limited of audience today is that because back then there were limitations to what you could do with a movie. For one the noir films are in black or white which makes it kind of boring. Back then in films you were only expose to so much then how it is today. In noir films there were corruption, murder, gun play and but still kept a classic style. Now days with all these elements it's more action and drama and suspens. Most noir films are based on white people and for the enjoyment of whites and now days we have such a wider diversity of cultures. And films now days reach out more to wider audience of different cultures. Then just being in black and white and about just whites. Noir films open the doors to film and will always be liked by some. But the world has changed in so many different ways making films produced now day so much enjoyable and better to watch. Noir films were about things that were happening durning that time to where now so much is diffenernt. Noir films dealt with the issues we had back then. Films produced now are a wider version of what life is like today.
