Detective
Detectives through the genre of film noir are very complex
characters. They pursue a very mixed personality with good points and bad
points in. From research I gathered some information and came to a conclusion;
which was words which accurately describe Detectives in a film noir. These are
words such as:
-
Superior: Superior
in a way that he is high in class and status and is looked up to.
-
Smart/Clever: Always
two steps ahead and has his head on the scene even when unexpected.
-
Cunning
like a Fox: Also pursues a sly nature amongst his other aspects.
-
Charismatic: Carries
an interesting story.
-
Patronising: Behave
in an offensively condescending manner towards lower class people e.g. his
assistant.
-
Egotistic: He
recognises self-importance and conveys a good ego.
-
Mysterious: Very
much keeps himself to himself and is always on the lookout for good sources.
-
Inner-Turmoil: This
being because he has a state of great commotion, confusion, agitation to solve
a mystery etc.
The Detective in my film noir:
I am the Detective in my film and
this is very misleading and contradictive because I am a black Detective. I
feel that the idea of this s definitely going to be effective and also convey a
whole new meaning to Film Noir because the typical Detective is recognised as a
typical tall, light skinned, sharp faced Detective however with my film we are
breaking this circuit and creating a new one by changing around the rules; I feel
as if this will work in our favour because it will have a big effect on the
balance of the Film.
The Detective will also carry a
mixed personality with many good and bad aspects, with things such as:
-
Superior: Superior in a way that he is high in
class and status and is looked up to.
-
Smart/Clever: Always two steps ahead and has his
head on the scene even when unexpected.
-
Cunning like a Fox: Also pursues a sly nature amongst
his other aspects.
-
Charismatic: Carries an interesting story.
-
Patronising: Behave in an offensively
condescending manner towards lower class people e.g. his assistant.
-
Egotistic: He recognises self-importance and
conveys a good ego.
-
Mysterious: Very much keeps himself to himself
and is always on the lookout for good sources.
-
Inner-Turmoil: This being because he has a state
of great commotion, confusion, agitation to solve a mystery etc.
