About Losers


          Noir is about losers. The characters in these existential, nihilistic tales are doomed. They may not die but they probably should, as the life that awaits them is certain to be so ugly, so lost and lonely, that they'd be better off just curling up and getting it over with. And, let's face it they deserve it.
