With the release of The Maltese Falcon in October 1941, where was the newly budding innovation of film noir to go? Well, less than two months later, the United States, where film noir was emerging, would enter World War II. A world event that influenced film noir's early years, later years, and also the relationship between the movie-going public and darker subject matters. So join us as we briefly review the intersection of film noir and World War II in Episode 4 of the Shadows of Noir podcast.
