Suspects
An inspired commentary on film noir - a biographical dictionary of characters and a dazzlingly original work of fiction. Noah Cross, Norma Desmond, Norman Bates, Harry Lime - these are just a few of the nearly 100 names that inhabit the mind of the narrator as he starts to compose short biographies of the most famous characters in the history of film noir. Then these characters start to meet each other outside the films as though they were real people with real needs and passions. Unsettling examination of identity or fascinating take on movie fandom?
