Blog Entry seven. Option one
First, let me state that Dangerous Days and Midnight in Silicon Alley were very good stories in the collection Los Angeles Noir. They illustrates certain parts of Los Angeles, the first story was an excellent description associated with film noir because all of the characters talked in contexts to the Mexican-African-American street style of the 1940s, 1950, and so on. For those that don't know, they were talking in talk that ain't herd no more. This story had a detective figure, and corruption, greed and a femme fatale character. The story is clearly narrated by the starting role. The second, storie is a good story because it has murder and betrayal. The two stories show a perfect example of old Los Angeles in modern times, that's what makes them neo-noir. We see characters of old styles in a new world still going, if you know what i mean. Most of them loners, with a corrupt past. What makes this neo-noir is that the famme fatales goes on punished, in the sense they are not murdered. We see seduction as major role associated with neo-noir. It has a verity of film noir, and results of neo-noir. The most important part i found was in both stories money was the reason in why every thing took place [murder]. And, the locations in which the were narrated were in place very familiar to me. Some place i did not know by name, yet the way in which they were described rang a bell. This stories fit to Heather Fireman's article, reason's of seduction, masculinity, and the resulting endings. These stories come ambiguous to the reader, untill the ending.
